Bleach Wiki:Volume Summary Project

This is a Policy & 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.

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

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.


 * One Manga

Another week, another volume and this one has Gin in it! Yay! Guess who is doing all the chapters with Gin in it. ^.^ Tinni 15:57, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Just giving you guys a heads-up, I will be going on holiday from the 2nd to the 12th of December. I will be going to Japan and trying to locate Kubo's studio and finding out what his plans for Bleach are ! I'll do the two chapters I claimed before then, probably tomorrow as I am busy tonight. But after that you guys are on your own. :( Tinni 09:53, November 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * Enjoy your holiday. I'll take on a few more than normal this week. I've changed the deadline for the alternate volume as it simply isn't goign to be finished today. --Yyp 10:06, November 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I have done the rabid fangirl thing and completed all the chapters with Ichimaru. Good luck with the rest of the chapters. Tinni 10:17, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry it took so long to finish Chapter 71. I may do another chapter or two, but I don't really know at the moment. With finals coming up, I have some other things asking for my attention. Sorry about that! Twocents 01:46, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

I went through and listed all of the currently completed volumes (to give credit where credit is due). Thought it'd be a bit more inspiring than that. I was thinking for the next alternate volume, There Is No Heart Without You might be a good choice because it's halfway done. I know that one user whose name I forgot wanted to do it all, but considering it's been over a month since she last worked on it, I see no reason to not allow others to add to it. Plus, it might be a bit easier for some people to contribute if they're only working on half a volume. Twocents 00:09, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
