Image Use
I'll throw this up on the Volume Summary Project, but now that our image policy has become more detailed, it's important to add the and  templates onto the images we use in the volume and episode pages, for legal reasons. Since we're going along through these pages, adding summaries and such, anyway, we might as well do it as we're going along. If we can't think of a reason for the use of the image, then it should be marked for deletion with the template or with one of the   templates. Twocents  (Talk)  03:30, December 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * All images used on the episode summary pages and the Episodes page now have and  templates, as do the OVA & movie pages. -- Yyp  (Talk) 12:15, February 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Resolved.

Kidō used
This sub-section will contain everything that appears in the Kidō page, excluding Shunkō


 * EXAMPLE:


 * Bakudō #1

Zanpakutō released
This sub-section will contain names of Zanpakutō seen released on screen, devided by Shikai, Bankai and Resurrección


 * EXAMPLES:

Shikai: Bankai: Resurrección (the Japanese pronunciation of the words is insignificant here)

Techniques used
This sub-section will contain any and all techniques that are not official Kidō: Zanpakutō techniques, Orihime and Chad techniques, Quincy techniques, Hollow techniques, Hohō techniques, Shunkō, Doll techniques, Bakkōtō techniques and Zanpakutō spirit techniques

While I can appreciate how much work you put into this, I will go ahead and offer my opposition, at least at this point in time. It seems that the list has only been given bigger names and divided more specifically into Quincy powers, Bakkoto, Dolls, etc. The other thing I don't like is that this creates sub-sections, as you can see in this page's Table of Contents. But the primary problem is that the main purpose of the project right now is to get all of the Summary, Characters, and Technique pages in place. Minato will be returning around Mid-February so he can give his opinion at that time, but right now I think this should be on the backburner until the current goals are met.

 * I know. The reason I put in so much work is because I had no idea there actually was a working layout, because it wasn't working. Every episode had something different in the P&T section. No specific order of items (sometimes zanpakuto released after techniques, which to me doesn't make any sense). I think the most important part of my proposed layout is the non-Japanese powers making use of the third slot of the translation template while the translation from Spanish/German is in the fourth slot. I can live without it being sub-sectioned, and the categorization of the techniques to Quincy/Bakkoto/etc is mere suggestion, but I think the order should be like so: !)Kido used. 2)Zanpakuto released. 3) Techniques used. 4) Other powers (which can for all intents and purposes include Dolls, Bakkoto and other unaffiliated techniques as well, to make it shorter and unmessy). As you said, Minato should be the one to make the choice of whether or not to use any part of my proposal, and for now at least I have a layout to work with.

Well, I feel I should give some sort of answer to this. I see where both of u r coming. Like Serial said, I too don't like the idea of subsections. At the same time organization is also a necessity. I too have noticed the irregularities Weede. In fact when I first joined the Committee Twocents mentioned to me that this was a problem with the "Powers" sections. I have been thinking about this for the past day and I'm still not sure what specific order or categorization should be used. For now the example page should be followed to the letter. It covers alittle of just about everything. Tho in one particular section, the "Hollow Techniques:" and "Techniques used:" are divided into two different sections. At the current time this is the only thing I think could be merged together. Due to the fact that Hollow techniques r few and far between. This could be renamed to say "Arrancar and Hollow techniques:", but that just seems pointless. I want to think more about this, but for now the order used on the Project page seems mostly right. Another exception is that I think that "Techniques used:" could be dropped to the bottom, just above "Other Powers:". I'll think more about this and if u two have any input or opinions on this, say so. Minato (Talk)  01:06, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

Addition of "Fights" Section
Seeing as the Fight Summary Project has gotten underway, I feel it's only appropriate to yield the fruits of the hard work going into it by adding a ==Fights== section to every episode summary. This section will only list fights that took place in order in that episode (and read "None" if no fights took place) and will fit in-between the ==Characters in order of appearance== and ==Techniques used==. There will be a couple criteria for a fight to be listed but I'll add that later when I make the official addendum to the Project page.

The priority is still to get the summaries written, proofread, and in place, so this will be on the backburner for a little while unless someone can find the time to get started on this. SerialSniper14 (Talk)  08:50, March 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * P.S. This being said, anyone who is creating/contributing to newer summaries (i.e. Beast Sowrd arc) please go ahead add this section in to save a little time in the future.

I like the idea of this proposal. I have read the above one from Weede, but I want to think about it more before I answer. This seems like a good Idea and I support it, in the future. The fight project is still getting on its feet. I want to help it more, but for now I need to get caught up on my project first. For now the Summaries r the most important thing and we shouldn't make this section until the fights r caught up. Still, this is another thing that the Anime Summary project should do in the future.
