Forum:List of Techniques

I intend to do a list of techniques used in Bleach, can I have your go? (I'd post the question in the improvement/new pages forums but from experience these posts rarely lead anywhere). Weedefinition  (Talk)  16:15, February 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * We already have a Techniques page, so perhaps it would be better to expand that than creating a new page (if there's anything missing off of it). -- Yyp (Talk) 16:31, February 21, 2010 (UTC)

My idea was to list specific techniques like Shunpo, Shunkō, Senka, Nadegiri and the likes as well as Zanpakutō special abilities like Higa Zekkō, Some no mai, Tsukishiro and Getsuga Tenshō. Do you think that page could contain all that? Weedefinition  (Talk)  16:39, February 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think we need something listing all the Zanpakuto techniques. That's covered quite well on the individual character pages and there are already category lists for them anyway: Overall techniques list, Zanpakutō techniques list & Resurrección techniques list, so I don't see the benefit of that. But for the rest, you can add them as sub-points under the existing headings (as below). -- Yyp (Talk) 17:05, February 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Zanjutsu
 * Nadegiri
 * Hakuda
 * Hohō
 * Shunpo
 * Senka
 * Utsusemi
 * Kidō
 * Shunko

My problem is that there is no article dealing directly with techniques. These category pages are OK, but since so few techniques have their own articles (if at all) a user rarely gets to see a link to those category pages, and not all users are Wiki savvy enough to find them. It's true that the specific techniques are dealt with in detail in the individual character pages, but that's no reason to not have a page that lists all the different items of the same group in one place; that argument negates the existence of any and all Wiki lists, and still they are a commonly used tool in all Wikis as well as this one. Truth be told, I'm sorry I ever brought it up because creating such a list would mean a lot of painstaking work and take a lot of time that I don't really have. Why don't you bring in the other admins and ask their opinion and I'll accept whatever you decide. Weedefinition  (Talk)  18:39, February 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * What exactly would an article dealing directly with techniques include, because if it is just going to be a list, then the Techniques page states that that is what it is for. How about doing up an example of it here so we can see what exactly you want it to be? -- Yyp (Talk) 20:22, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
