Bleach Movie 4
I was wondering, since we are likely to see an influx of edits about it, how are we going to deal with the new movie. Would any plot info from it be treated as a spoiler? If so, a new section for it should be made on the spoiler page. And how would we treat it considering the timescale involved here (a year until its release and likely another 9 months until a sub becomes available) - do we not allow plot details to be added until it is released in English, or would we allow details to be posted once it is released in Japan? 12:57, December 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * I was thinking that since we created a page about Heat the Soul 7 and protected it until it is released so that nobody other than the admins could edit it, should we consider doing the same with the new Bleach movie, as it will likely be the source of a lot of edits. This way we would be able to better keep control over it. 20:36, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Petition to re-open discussions forum
Tinni has suggested the following:


 * Hey, I was just thinking about closed discussions and how we don't actually have a mechanism by which to re-open it. All we really have is the ability to start new discussions on the same topic. It occurred to me that perhaps we should have some mechanism in place for people at least make a case for why a discussion should be re-opened. So I was wondering what you thought about starting forum thread in the "Improvements" forum where people can place petitions to re-open discussions. Doesn't mean we will re-open, but it does give people a place to lodge their case. Plus since it's the forums, it's out of the way etc, etc. Of course, we might want to take some topics off limits like the old and tired "Vizard" discussion. Or Viz translation vs fan translation discussion and other things like that. So what do you think? Tinni   (Talk)  12:59, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Seems reasonable to me. 11:06, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yea I was thinking about this. A page where people can give their petitions to re-open discussions. They can then be evaluated by the committee and if a majority ruling is given by the committee on the accurate and consistent argument given for the reopening it can move on to the admin and again its the majority rule to determine whether its to be opened. Thats my general thoughts et me know what you think. I would agree with Tinni on the no longer bringing up the Vizard, Viz translation vs. Fan Translation, Tosens race, or character status. Other then these specifics im ok with the idea. Salubri (Talk)  12:28, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Sidebar Additions re Updated Image Policy
Would it be helpful to add the following to the sidebar under the "Bleach Images" tab? Would make it easier to find all these things now that they are used more frequently. 12:48, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

** Bleach Wiki:Image Gallery|Image Gallery ** Bleach Wiki talk:Image Gallery#Profile Picture Changes|Discuss Profile Image changes ** Bleach Wiki talk:Image Gallery#Cataloguing|Flag images for cataloguing ** Forum:Administrative Requests|Flag a file for deletion ** Special:NewFiles|Recently added pictures

Yea if it helps the sight might as well add it. Salubri (Talk)  14:21, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

It's been added. 22:01, July 17, 2010 (UTC)

Scaling down and alot of work
Ok so now with some of the articles done with great work but with the fights articles we can start to scale them down some. The fights provide in-depth detail of the information regarding the fights, events and battles. In an effort to address the space we can summarize the articles a bit so to stop redundancy.

we can also start linking the specific character battles to their specific pages. Also on that note i notice the gallery pages link to the character articles but not the other way around. we should address that.

There are some articles in need of alot of help. Rukia, Renji's history and plot which is uncalled for being such important characters as well as Yumichika. Reiatsu and Reiyoku need some severe references.

What are your thoughts on this? Salubri (Talk)  15:25, July 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * When we link a character article to a fight/event page, how should we do it? Is "Nel is the only one who catches up to Ichigo, arriving just in time to see Dordonii Alessandro Del Socacchio, a Privaron Espada. As Ichigo and Dordonii fight, the difference in power between the two quickly becomes apparent" alright or has anyone got a better idea? About image galleries: where would be the best place to link to the gallery? The infobox? 22:01, July 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well we could do it like that or we could just summarize the articles and list the fights at the bottom of the article. The gallery would probably best link in the infobox. Salubri (Talk)  23:33, July 17, 2010 (UTC)

Inactivity
Im pretty sure that unfortunately Twocents is gone for good its been 6 months with no response or even log on which sucks but if there is no objection he should be dropped from admin status. The same for the inactivity of Maul Day who hasn't been involved at all that I can remember. Im still on the fence about Whitestrike I know Arrancar109 still goes to him for help but thats something a user could accomplish he is currently not involved at all on admin level and doesn't remotely edit anymore at all. I already put a message out to the committee members who are not as active as well to determine whats going on there. Any thoughts?

Committee Nomination (Lia Schiffer)
Tinni has nominated Lia Schiffer for a position on the Policy & Standards Committee.


 * 1) - I fully support lia's advancement to the committee, she has been vigilant in stopping vandalism, undoing bad edits, opening communication and explaining issues and answering questions on the site, contributing pics, she has expressed a desire to further involve herself on the site as well. She has been a member for some time and has had very few issues if any and learned about the site considerably since her starting point. --Salubri  (Talk)  01:45, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) - I'm in support as well. For a long time now, Lia has greatly helped increase the quality in many of the articles and stopped both vandalism and speculation from appearing on the articles. She's given a lot of her time to improve the wiki, so I think she's suitable for the job. Arrancar109  (Talk)  06:29, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) - As already stated, Lia Schiffer has been active in maintaining the site's standards by undoing poor edits and vandalism, communicating effectively where there are issues, has not caused any notable problems and is a good editor all round.  23:22, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
