Article Talk Pages
Hello there I'm SunXia!! Just to let you know that talk pages for our Articles are not to discuss the Character or Speculation or Mistakes but to discuss the upkeep of the actual article!! I have moved your post to a forum where it belongs!! Thank you!!
 * Yeah, I only posted it there because no one ever got to the Ukitake forum page, and I was kind of curious. Thanks for the clarification, though. Schiffy  (Speak to me |What I've done ) 21:36, March 25, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Appearances in Other Media
The "Other Media" section refers to Bleach media, not including the manga and anime. Hence why it is used to describe the characters' appearance in the video games, movies, and otherwise non-canon material. We do not list cameo appearances in other media, especially those from fan-made games. Mohrpheus  (Talk)  03:52, April 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have still never seen a hard and fast written rule on this wiki that states that. Yes, it's a fan made game, and yes, it is not a Bleach game, but nonetheless, Orihime does in fact appear in it. I said I wanted to see a written rule on the Bleach wiki stating the rules for that section of character pages, which I have yet to see.

 * Schiffy, Morhph is a member of the team, if it is not an officially endorse Bleach Universe product it does not go into the articles!! Otherwise we'd be listing all fan-images over on Deviant Art, which is silly!! That is not an officially endorsed Bleach game so let's just leave it out and move on productively thank you!!
 * Fine, but I still stress that a freeware fanmade game is different from Deviant Art images. No programming goes into uploading a picture on DA, but creating a game like Katawa Crash, no matter how stupid it is, involves the work of creating a stable flash game.

 * And fan art images are often hand-drawn and colored extensively, one talent is not better than another in fan worlds!!
 * Alright, I get your point. I'll put this argument to rest. Either way, I still think this should be written somewhere, on a template or help page or something, as to prevent this kind of issue again from someone else who is unaware of the rule.

Well this is the first time (that I am aware of anyway) that anyone has ever tried to add a fan-made game to that section, so there would not be a written rule specifically about it. We can't make rules to legislate for every single thing that someone might add or try to do afterall. But no, it is the convention that fan made games are not be included and that that section is for non-anime/manga Bleach media. 14:24, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Fan made or no, there is nothing on this site stating that that section is only for Bleach related media; meaning even non-fandom works that have cameos are excluded. Schiffy  (Speak to me |What I've done ) 15:05, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Schiffy, here's the thing. While it is true there is not a written rule about such things, it is a general, unwritten rule not to add unofficial appearances in the Appearances in Other Media section, much like how it is an unwritten rule to be a decent human being and to accept the opinions of other people. If you really, really think there needs to be a written, iron-clad rule about this kind of thing, we can probably make one, but this kind of thing is something you should just know without needing someone to tell you. This is, after all, a database wiki, not a fan wiki.--Xilinoc (talk) 16:18, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alright, fine. I get it, I'll stop now. And now I know for the future. Schiffy  (Speak to me |What I've done ) 18:24, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

Removal of Content
Hi! Please be aware that you are not allowed to remove content from your talk page, instead you may archive them.
 * Not even a standard automated welcome message? I mean, anything else, I understand, but that's a little odd. Eh, whatever. If that's how it works, I'm not going to argue. Schiffy  (Speak to me |What I've done ) 18:59, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
