How to add an image to a character's gallery
- If the image isn't uploaded on the wiki yet, upload it (ref. Help:Upload Wizard for assistance)
- Make sure the image is categorized with at least:
- the character(s) appearing in the image, and
- one of the categories denoting gallery sections.
- If the image belongs to one of the following categories, then it also needs to be categorized with its source.
- Animation still (Category:Animations)
- Story Mode CG/image (Category:Story)
- Arcade Mode CG/image (Category:Arcade Mode)
- 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, User:Deus Machina Nirvana (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:
{{Gallery Metadata
|characters=Category:Media by Character
|cameos=Category:Media by Character
|locations=Category:Media by Location
|weapons=Category:Media by Weapon
|source=Category:Media by Source, Category:Media from Novels, Category:Media from Manga, Category:Media from Collaborations
|artists=Category:Media by Artist
|section=Category:Media by Gallery Category
|date=
