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

<tab collapsed openname="Details & Progress" style="width:100%; font-weight:bold;" container="font-style:default; font-weight:normal;">

Content

QC pages

Add 10th anniversary images (bday images)

Characters' challenge mode combos

Pages & Categories

Write pages for missing Locations, Stages, Media (ie BlazBlue Mobile)

Organization & Presentation

Offer BlazBlue-related themes/skins (dark version esp) -> Minerva Noire

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

Character Subpages

Command List subpage (includes "How to play/Tutorial")

Write a custom template for character subpage tabs.

Gallery - needs a rehaul for sprites and keeping story spoilers more hidden

BBDW (for in-game profile(s), alters, weird lore, alternate timeline shenanigans)

Collaborations Masterpage

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

</tab>

Translations

Status: On Schedule
Pages: Blue Manga, BlazBlue Walker, backlogged birthday illustrations, concept art notes
Templates: Blue Manga Navigation, BlazBlue Walker Navigation
Categories: Blue Manga, BlazBlue Walker

Merchandise, Events

Status: In Backlog
Pages: Merchandise
Templates: Merchandise Tabs, Merchandise Navigation, Merchandise Item
Categories: Media of Merchandise, Media from Events
<tab collapsed openname="Details & Progress" style="width:100%; font-weight:bold;" container="font-style:default; font-weight:normal;" title="Example tooltip">

News and Events

News updates/translations?

Events?

Merchandise

Move items from Merchandise masterpage to separate subpages

Write initial Tabs and Navigation templates for the collection of merchandise subpages.

</tab>
<tab collapsed openname="Considerations" style="width:100%; font-weight:bold;" container="font-style:default; font-weight:normal;" title="Example tooltip">

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>

Blue Radio

Status: In Backlog
Pages: Blue Radio
Templates: Blue Radio Episode
Categories: Blue Radio
Coordinate watching Blue Radio.
Track:
(1) corners & descriptions, which corners appear in which episodes
(2) official cut-in art
(4) notes on: in-character skits, new product details, any development or production details, fun (BB-related) corners, or go by intuition.
<tab collapsed openname="Details & Progress" style="width:100%; font-weight:bold;" container="font-style:default; font-weight:normal;" title="Example tooltip">

To Do

Description of each corner - track which corners show up in which episodes

Place the logo on the side?

</tab>

Master Gallery

Status: Stable
Pages: Gallery Pages
Templates: Master Gallery, Gallery Section
Categories: Media Categories

</tab>
<tab collapsed openname="Details & Progress" style="width:100%; font-weight:bold;" container="font-style:default; font-weight:normal;" title="Example tooltip">

Code

Change the Gallery Section template to sort Main Artwork by date. -> only mainline games (CT/CS/CP/CF/TAG) have Main Artwork, so this isn't a problem)

Add support for video embeds (add a Videos section and a video parameter)

Image tags

"Lobby Avatar" -> Category:Lobby Avatars

"Normal Pose" -> Category:Portraits

"Swimsuit Pose" -> Category:Portraits

"Young Pose" -> Category:Portraits

"Crest" -> Category:Crests

didn't know where to put Embryo so just left it tagged "Crests", no character tags

"Chibi" -> Category:Chibi

"Chibi.png" -> Category:Chibi

"Special" -> Category:Special Artwork

"Sprite Reference" -> Category:Palette References

Mai needs captions

"Avatar" -> Category:Portraits as necessary

"Sticker" -> Category:Stickers (XBlaze, BlazBlue Blue Radio, BlazBlue)

"Wallpaper" -> Category:Wallpapers

"Birthday" -> Category:Birthday Art

"Storyboard" -> Category:Storyboards

"Concept" -> Category:Early Designs

"Model Sheet" -> Category:Model Sheets

Category:Relius Clover -> go add Category:Ignis to the relevant ones.

Category:Rachel Alucard -> go add Category:Gii and Category:Nago to the relevant ones.

BlazBlue Central Fiction

BlazBlue Calamity Trigger

BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma

Clone Phantasma

XXX "Arcade" -> Category:Arcade Mode tag w/ characters & locations

XXX "Story" -> Category:Story tag w/ characters & locations

"BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode"

</tab>

Messing Around

Interviews

Example table of important information related to interviews that might help someone find what they're looking for (or aid them in browsing interviews).

Date	Title	Featured Staff
2017 12 31	AppBank 2017 Year-End Creator Survey Vol. 2	Toshimichi Mori, Masaomi Kikuchi
2018 02 12	ARC Live! EP2 - Q&A w/ Daisuke & Mori	Daisuke Ishiwatari, Toshimichi Mori
2018 03 14	ARC Live! EP6: Q&A w/ Arc System Works President, Minoru Kidooka!	Minoru Kidooka
2018 04 20	Blazblue: Central Fiction Official Setting Material Collection Producer Toshimichi Mori Special Interview	Toshimichi Mori
2018 06 06	Dengeki Online For BlazBlue's 10-year anniversary, Mori-P and Kana Ueda take a look back. New 'Dark War' info as well!?	Toshimichi Mori, Ueda Kana

PROPOSITION: Interviews be subpages of their source page i.e. Dengeki Online/Interview Name Here
- PRO: You can immediately see what sources produced which interviews
- PRO: Each source can have its own description page.
- CON: Stubs for sources that only produce a few interviews or are largely irrelevant
- CON: Page names won't be intuitive: "Dengeki Online Interviews" would be more accurate
- Example navigation: Category:Interviews > Dengeki Online Interviews > scan table for date, staff member, title > hover link for page preview & description
  - Could be messy if searching across sources for an interview at a certain date (will need to open multiple pages - Weekly Famitsu, Famitsu.com, Dengeki Online, Dengeki PlayStation, Kotaku, Gematsu, etc)
- ALTERNATIVE: not having interviews be subpages (add the title as the first word in the article name - AppBank 2017 Survey, Dengeki Online BB 10th Event)
  - PRO: Interviews will be automatically split by source via alphabetical sorting on category pages
  - CON: Alphabetical sorting might be undesirable sometimes (e.g. if you want to keep Weekly Famitsu and Famitsu.com articles grouped together). The alternative would be a less intuitive naming convention e.g. "Famitsu Weekly" and "Famitsu.com"
- ALTERNATIVE: Adding source as a category and omitting it from the title
  - PRO: Categories can be used with more complex MediaWiki features (eg #ask parser function).
  - CON: leaves organization on the category page wanting. Forces one to browse by the relatively meaningless category of source
PROPOSITION: Adding date (or year) in the title of the article
- PRO: Interviews will be automatically sorted by year/date via alphabetical sorting on category pages
- CON: can bloat the title with relatively meaningless information (aside from sorting it's not valuable information)
PROPOSITION: Archive older articles in subcategories split by year (Category:Interviews > Category:2017 Interviews, with 2018 interviews under Category:Interviews until 2019 rolls over)
- Example navigation: Category:Interviews > if looking for an older interview, go to the subcategory of interview by year (e.g. Category:2016 Interviews); else scan the list of interviews from the current year.
