<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:100%">
* 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.

===BBDW Information Organization===
Potential proposal for the BBDW/Guides page to feature links to all relevant Dark War information in one compact location. Aim to consolidate information into concise masterpages whenever possible, and avoid nesting pages.
 
; Everything is based on speculation due to the current lack of concrete information about BBDW (as of Jun 11, 2018).
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Gameplay
|-
| '''System''' - HUD, controls, gameplay & translated in-game gameplay tutorials (combat, leveling, upgrading)
|-
| '''Modes?''' - description and guides to different modes of play (if there are multiple)
: e.g. (singleplayer) Story Mode (just leave a "Main article: BBDW/Guides/Story Mode" redirect here), PvP, Co-op, Infinite Dungeons, Boss Raids, etc.
|-
| '''[[BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War/Guides/Characters|Characters]]''' (Unit List) - compacted table for comparisons, clicking name links to character's BBDW subpage, one row per character for easy comparisons and scanning
*  should be an overview of all Dark War characters (one character per row).
:: Icon | Name | Type | other useful comparative information | etc
* Name links to the character's individual /BBDW page.
* '''Character BBDW subpages''' (e.g. [[Tsubaki Yayoi/BBDW]]) should have a way to neatly display information (via a template) about multiple units for the same character. If possible, vital information (name, rank, stats, skills, skill icons, skill descriptions, other useful information) should also be stored as Properties so that the BBDW/Characters page can be automatically updated.
** For each unit, information should include unit name, stats, skills, upgrade/leveling information, main image/sprites/videos, costumes, gallery, links to any unique short stories. (dialogue goes under <character>/Quotes)
|-
| '''Gacha''' - Introduce what a gacha is and how BBDW's gachas work briefly (as well as different types of gachas in BBDW, if any).
* Have a section on currencies (Crystallized Azure, Gacha Tickets)
* Have a section on rates
* Have a list of past banners with details on the rate-up or new units.
{| class="wikitable"
  ! Structure for compactly displaying information about each banner
  |-
  |name<br>Banner image<br>duration
  |-
  |'''Information''' - an optional section detailing special currencies or item bundles specific to the banner
  |-
  |'''Details''' - Rate-Up/Limited Units/New Additions
  |}
:* The gacha list could potentially get very long (too long) and make the page difficult to load. Possibly have the gacha list on a different page, and leave a redirect ("Main article: See List of BBDW Gacha Banners").
|-
| '''Story''' - A guide and masterpage for the gameplay required to clear missions/quests/nodes/main story
* If main stories and sidestories have dependencies, use a table or list to relate Main Story and Side Story sections.
* If they're specific to nodes on a (unique) map rather than to main story progression, list the Main Story nodes and Side Story nodes on the same page.
* '''Individual story pages''' should be for the whole chapter at once, or for as large a category as possible (e.g. "Character-Specific Short Stories" with sub-sections, instead of individual pages for each character)
:: name, location, icon, list of mobs, drop items, clear reward, and a *link* to story translation (see Translations section below for details).
|-
| '''Events''' - a masterpage including information about time-limited events, that explains event types and has a list of past events.
{| class="wikitable
  ! Individual Event Page Structure
  |-
  | Event banner and images, event duration, and official event description
  |-
  | '''Introduction''' - schedule, news, reruns, updates, changes, alternate versions
  |-
  | '''Details''' - Guide to playing the event (event maps, event rewards, event bosses, etc.)
  |-
  | '''Story''' - links to the page with the translation for the event's story
  |}
|-
| '''Items''' - a table or other organized list of items
* Link to other pages if further details need to be recorded
:(ie [[BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War/Guides/System#Leveling Units]], [[Platinum Dollars|Platinum dollars]], or [[BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War/Guides/Gacha#Crystallized Azure]], event pages, story mode guide)
|-
| '''Updates/Version changelog'''???? - A very brief overview of changes presented in '''major''' patches (ones presenting new chapters, gameplay modes, or other huge changes; not events, gacha, or maintenance notices).
* ref [https://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/view/Patches Patches (Mabinogi wiki)]
|}
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Story
|-
| These feature unofficial translations of short stories published through ''BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War''. Proposal:
*Name them by chapter name like the [[:Category:Alter Memory Episodes|Alter Memory episode pages]] (to reduce nesting).
*Categorize them as "BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War Short Stories," nested under [[:Category:Short Stories|Short Stories]]?
*Add a ''Dark War'' spoiler tag above them
*Have a disambiguation that redirects users to the chapter's gameplay guide (e.g. "For help with completing the quest associated with this short story in ''BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War'', see [[BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War/Guides/Story]]")
|-
|'''Prologue''': [[one emerging possibility]]
|-
|'''Main Story'''
* Chapter 1: [[the outbreak of...]]
* Chapter 2
* etc.
|-
|'''Side Stories'''
|-
| '''Event Stories'''
* Each event gets at most one page for translations, if any. Remakes and added sequences are added onto existing pages whenever possible.
|-
|'''Character Stories'''
