116 now.
Carrying on with editing for now. The Dies Irae profiles, if they're being deleted, don't need templates made for them.

It says a lot when I just managed to push our Article List Templates to 1,000 different Templates.
It has been a long road, but we are nearing our destination.

The remaining profiles are either from Shinza Banshou, which are pending deletion currently, or Vivid Red Operation, which has an extremely confusing Tab2 layout.
@NoMoreTalking @Mariogoods Since there are no listed supporters for Vivid Red, I am contacting you since you created pages for this verse in regards to how we should handle this in regards to this project.

I think it could be like how we treat Fate profiles.
- 9,998

How so? After all, from what I'm seeing, the Vivid characters are a fusion between the main character and the appropriate matching character for each separate form.

I think we could do like this:
Rei Kuroki Vivid Red

Okay. So just remove Akane from the tabs entirely and make the templates exclusively with the Vivids and their unfused counterparts?
Is this what you are proposing?

I'm thinking we just axe at least a portion of the profiles unless they see a massive improvement, honestly.
Most have only been edited by two or three people each (including bots), one of which is the verse creator (that being Mariogoods). There's no links, and most haven't even been changed for nearly 9 months to a full year. It's also unlikely they'll ever be changed because there's no knowledgeable members or supporters listed anywhere.
I'm not necessarily suggesting we delete the verse outright, just that we can axe a few profiles. But that's a matter for the deletion thread.
For now, I think we can just replace consciousness with the individual form names, like Rei is currently.

I don't think that this verse is not salvageable, like you seem to be implying. But, as you have said, that conversation is for the deletion thread.
Currently, Mariogoods gave us a perfectly reasonable solution. Remove the parts involving Akane, and just categorize the Vivid characters with their unfused counterparts. That seems to work for me.

Akane Isshiki

I made the template as was listed, however it does not address the unfused counterparts of the Vivid characters.
- 9,998
- 5,218
Okay. I updated the template, making two layers, Base and Vivid, and adding the unfused characters under parentheses.
Should I change the name to something more encompassing for all the characters, not just Akane?

Never mind, I changed it to this.

This can be added to all of the profiles now, which I shall do presently.

Done.
The rest of the Tab2 Templates reside in the Shinza Banshou profiles, which as mentioned previously, will be deleted soon. So for all intents and purposes, this project is now complete!

Congratulations everybody! Thank you all for the assistance on the project. When I proposed this update to our format for profiles, I knew it was going to be a big job but I didn't fully grasp just how long it would take. Thankfully however, it is complete which shows that even massive projects on this wiki affecting nearly 5000 pages can be complete in just over four months.

There is still this issue though.
See here:
Standard Format for Character Profiles
When there are multiple versions of a character that are distinct enough to be split into several profiles, whether it is due to the length and complexity of the page or versions from different mediums, then the multiple pages that are created as a result of this have to be linked by a tabber...
vsbattles.fandom.com
And maybe here:
Standard Format for Verse Pages
Insert a picture of the Verse at the very top, just above the Summary section. For pictures that are wider horizontally, the alignment is to the center, and the maximum size is 590px, in order to fit in tablet screens. For pictures that are longer vertically, or are of similar size in both...

The Shinza pages have been deleted now, so we only need to handle the instruction page rewriting that I mentioned in my last preceding post.
Are any of the members here willing to handle it?

Thank you.
Does somebody know of a way to display the source code without an image, so it can be easily copy-pasted and then modified when needed?
Also, different types of template layouts (simple ones and with multiple sections) should preferably be included as examples.

I tried displaying it on the page with no wiki code but it wasn't formatted properly.
Another way to do it might just be to put the template in fully and tell people to view the source code to see for themselves. But I think having the image there may help just for demonstration purposes too.

How about using the same type of code as in the linked section below, in order to make your intended layout structure demonstration work?
