Bleach Wiki:Volume Summary Project

This is a Policy &amp; Standards Committee project that aims to provide the summaries for Manga chapters currently lacking such summaries. This is the successor of the Volume a week club and works on the same principles.

How to Participate
If you want to participate in this project just claim a chapter from either the main volume or the alternative volume below by putting your name next to the chapter and list the status as incomplete. When you have finished adding the summary for the chapter, just change the status to complete. Once all the chapters are done, we can move on to the next volume. The goal would be to get one volume done per week. But of course if it is done sooner then we'll move on to the next volume sooner. Of course, if you are done with your chapter and want to do another one (that hasn't been claimed yet) then you can do so. But remember! This is suppose to be fun and not stressful! So if you claim a chapter but find that the week has become busy, just unclaim it and don't worry about it.

Also, you do not have to be a committee member to participate. However, please be aware the committee members will be reading over all summaries, including those by other committee members, for quality assurance purposes. This is all for the sake of making the summaries the best they can be for the benefit of all wiki users.

Suggested Article Guidelines
These are some friendly suggestions to keep in mind when writing summaries and they are also things that might be helpful if you writing a chapter summary for the very first time. They are also designed to comply with wiki best practice.

This section is a work in progress. Please feel free to add your own suggestions, tips and tricks.


 * 1) Please keep in mind that this is a wiki and so please do not speculate when writing the chapter summary. Just describe things as they unfold, and when in doubt, go for neutral tone and wording.
 * 2) The chapter summary is not suppose to be a substitute for actually reading the chapter. As such, there is no need to give minute details of everything that's happening. Remember, it is a summary only.
 * 3) Links - please consider providing one where you think that the reader of the summary might want more information on either a character or a term.
 * 4) Adding Chapter covers - as we go through the volume, you will find that come chapters are missing the chapter cover. Chapter covers should be thumbnail of 190px and left aligned. If the chapter does not have a cover but does have a page where the chapter number is visible, that page can be used as a chapter cover. If in doubt about which page to use as a cover, for chapters that do not have a clearly identifiable chapter cover, then leave it be and flag the issue in the discussion for input.

Chapter title consistency
Chapter titles have to be checked to make sure that,


 * 1) Chapter titles correspond to how they were listed in the volume (not the weekly Shonen Jump release)
 * 2) Titles originally given in Japanese are listed in Japanese
 * 3) The translation of Japanese titles are presented in a consistent manner

One line summaries
Many chapters are missing the one line summary, even when they have the full summary.

Completed Issues Summary

 * Volume Layout - all volume pages should now have the same layout
 * Bleach All Star consistency - the Bleach All Star's template was changed and should now be more consistent and hopefully not overlapping with the info box for the majority of browsers and users
 * Chapter Cover Images - all volume pages now have title cover pictures for each chapter
 * Characters in Order of Appearance - all volume pages now have the characters listed in order of appearance
 * Cross-linking to Episodes - all chapters that have been animated now have links to the episode(s) they were featured in
 * Chapter Cover Licensing - all chapter covers now has the license information affixed to them

Access to Online Chapters
Mostly for the "anime only" fans who might want to help us out but not know where to read the chapters to summarise. Here are the links to places you can read Bleach online.

User Comments
Thank you! Thank you everyone for all the hard work! It's not finished yet, volume 29 has one chapter to go but I think we can start celebrating! One glance at the completion credit list will show you that prior to this projecting starting we didn't have a lot of summaries written. Even volumes that did have summaries written were missing chapter covers, appearance of characters list etc. But slowly but surely the volume pages have been filled up and made pretty! Thank you to everyone who contributed. This project was a huge success! This project will now be put on "maintenance mode". All volume page related issues will still be routed through this project and we will of course continue to ensure that all new chapters get volume summaries written. Of course continued improvements of the summaries (more detail, corection of spelling and grammer, better expression) will happen over time. But the important thing is that now the summaries are in place! No long are the volume pages mostly blank! Which was the sad sight that prompted the creation of this project.

Some of you have been wondering what to do next. Policy &amp; Standards Committee does still have a number of active projects that need help. So please consider assisting one of the other projects. Thanks again! Tinni  (Talk)  01:59, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
