This is a guide for making a generic quotes page for a character. Details about each section follow below.

  • PAGE NAME: Create the page under the character's quotes page: e.g. Ragna the Bloodedge/Quotes/BBTAG
    • Use the game's official abbreviation (BBCT, BBCS, BBCP, BBCPEX, BBCF, BBTAG, etc.) to create a more readable page name and shorter link
  • In the generated boilerplate text:
    • Don't forget to replace Ragna the Bloodedge 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 {{Character Tabs|Λ-No.11-|Lambda-11}} where Λ-No.11- is the name of her main overview page and Lambda-11 is the name that her subpages are on (Lambda-11/Gameplay, etc)

Using Templates

Quotes pages make heavy use of templates. The two templates to take note of for quotes pages are Template:Quotes_(Table) and Template:Quotes_(Table_Row).

(Don't mix up these templates with Template:Quote, which is used for formatting a single quote at the top of a character's page!)

Usage

Template:Quotes (Table Row)

Page Sections

Battle

The battle section is split into lines for solo actions (including attack motions and other motions) and interactions (special versus lines and gameplay intros and outros).

  • For regular, unnamed commands, use numpad notation to specify the situation (e.g. 5A, j.6A, 3D)
  • When the move is named, use the name (e.g. for special skills, distortions, drive moves, etc.)

Victory Screen

This section lists quotes that show up on the victory screen stating the outcome of a set. These are usually provided in text on screen and require less guesswork than regular battle quotes and announcer lines.

When applicable, this section also includes Rank Up lines (from ranking up in online modes) and location test lines (unlockable in the in-game shop). These lines come before the regular victory screen lines.

For copy-pasting
  {{Quotes (Table MRow)
    | situation = Location Test
    | num = 2
    | rows = 
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row | English loketest line <ref group="N" name="loketest"/> | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
  }}
  {{Quotes (Table MRow)
    | situation = Rank Up (Network)
    | num = 6
    | rows = 
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
      {{Quotes (Table MRow)/Row |  | }}
  }}

Add this to the Notes section at the bottom of the page if an English loketest line exists:

==Notes==
<references group="N">
<ref name="loketest">Location test lines are only available in-game as audio and only in Japanese, but they are translated in the game's files.</ref>

System Voice

This is an optional section for announcer lines (available for some games as DLC).

The below can be copy-pasted as a base. It simply lists the character's name in both English and Japanese.
