Project Progress

Completed | In Progress | In Backlog | On Hold | Not Started (needs further conversation/consideration)

High priority:

• Blue Radio (newest season)
• Character Quotes (BBCF material collection)
• Command Lists (BBTAG, backlog)
• Concept Art notes
• Locations/stages (BBTAG)
• Birthdays (current)
• BBTAG updates
• BBDW updates, BlazBlue Walker
• Dark Theme (Cathedral)
• Birthdays (backlog)
• What's wrong with mobile? (Minerva dark theme)
• Challenge Mode Combos
• Arcade Mode Transcripts

Low(er) priority:

• Merchandise (trying to stay up to date)
• Collaborations

Backburner:

• Events (i.e. tournaments, live events, concerts)
• BlazBlue Mobile (it's defunct so this is more for trivia purposes)

General Organization, Missing Pages, etc

Pages: None

Templates: Character Tabs, Quote, Character Navigation, Gallery Navigation, Gameplay Navigation, Infobox Location, Audio

Categories: Terms and Setting

Planned:

• Character subpages
  • Biography
    • Move biographies to a subpage
    • Alternate timelines in tabbers (ie Tsubaki - main, CT1, TWoF)
  • Quotes
    • "/Quotes" (top page) contains notable (story) quotes, in-character Blue Radio lines, and tabs to navigate its subpages.
    • Subpages for each game (ie "/Quotes/BBCF"): (A & B) battle lines, winquotes, unique encounters, system voice
  • Command Lists
    • Command Lists for each game (BBCT, BBCS, BBCP, BBCF, BBTAG)
    • Includes tutorials/how to play/playstyle descriptions
  • BBDW
    • for BBDW-specific things (in-game profile(s), alters, weird lore, timeline shenanigans, stats, skills, etc.)
    • General Structure: all information on BBDW/Units/Bullet with sections to be transcluded on Bullet/BBDW.
    • When more information comes out, create a BBDW infobox. Example skeleton: Unit info, stats, skills, strategy, other versions, references, navigation.
• Collaborations masterpage
• Locations/stages infobox

How to make it easier to navigate BlazBlue wiki by redoing the main page?

Write a custom template for character subpage tabs.

(since one for each collab would be overkill, especially with ancient/dead/hard to datamine ones), refer to (Media from Collaborations?)

</tab>

Pages: Blue Manga, BlazBlue Walker, backlogged birthday illustrations, concept art notes

Templates: Blue Manga Navigation, BlazBlue Walker Navigation

Master Page

(1)  mixed info: Events, Merchandise, Announcements, Tournaments (Comiket, Arc Revo, Blue Radio, new game announcements)

Merchandise

(1)  Music albums get their own page, since music is important to BlazBlue as a franchise.
(2)  DVDs e.g. for Blue Radio R/R2 and Music Concerts get their own page
(3)  Do other merchandise get individual pages? Or are they just lumped into a "merchandise" master page?
     * (ie) BlazBlue Sets @ Comiket, individual items @ broccoli online shop?
     * what about items sold in multiple places? (ie Es Works)
-> They get split by type (ref Category:Media of Merchandise)

</tab>

In BlazBlue: Alternative Dark War there are special events which include major game updates in the form of limited-time maps, items, story, or gacha. But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful.
