Help:Manual of Style/Character Pages/Gallery

General Notes

 * PAGE NAME: Create the page under the character's main page: e.g. Ragna the Bloodedge/Gallery
 * In the generated boilerplate text:
 * Don't forget to replace  with the name of the character the page is being created for.
 * In the case of the Murakumo units, whose display name is different from their base page name, use  where   is the name of her main overview page and   is the name that her subpages are on (Lambda-11/Gameplay, etc)

How to add an image to a character's gallery

 * 1) If the image isn't uploaded on the wiki yet, upload it (ref. Help:Upload Wizard for assistance)
 * 2) Make sure the image is categorized with at least:
 * 3) * the character(s) appearing in the image, and
 * 4) * one of the categories denoting gallery sections.
 * 5) If the image belongs to one of the following categories, then it also needs to be categorized with its source.
 * 6) * Animation still (Category:Animations)
 * 7) * Story Mode CG/image (Category:Story)
 * 8) * Arcade Mode CG/image (Category:Arcade Mode)
 * 9) Collaboration image/art only needs to be categorized it by the collaborating series and character; it doesn't need to be explicitly put into the Collaborations gallery section nor tagged with a BlazBlue game for it to show up in a gallery

At set intervals, a bot will check recent changes and add or update the image's Gallery Metadata, which will let the image be pulled into the proper gallery sections.

How the system is set up

 * Template:Master Gallery defines the standard gallery layout for a character gallery.
 * Images are pulled into each gallery section based on the data in the Gallery Metadata template on their page.
 * The bot User:Deus Machina Nirvana checks recently-uploaded and recently-changed files (pages in the File namespace) to see if they are categorized with at least one gallery section, and if they are, fills out their Gallery Metadata based on the existing categories on the page.

Each section of Template:Gallery Metadata corresponds to a category on the wiki:
