Forum:Proposed changes to character template

In light of the new story arc occuring in the manga, I image that once this story arc makes it to the anime, there will be a lot of changes to the lead image in many character articles as there will be updates to the now older characters. I think that some characters (such as Yuzu Kurosaki and Tatsuki Arisawa) look different enough that it may confuse some people making them wonder who these new characters are. I would like to propose a change to the lead character templates that includes a manga image (such as I have shown at right; however, I imagine that changes could be made to make things fit better). I feel these changes could serve many functions:

1. It allows us to preserve the image of the original (younger) character that we've all been accustomed to over the past 10 years of Bleach's existence.

2. It would allow an opportunity for us to display the debut image of a character as Tite Kubo first wanted us to be introduced to in the manga.

3. It would allow an opportunity to present an image of the character from the manga. Most character articles contain no manga images (and in fact many characters have zero manga images in their image galleries). I feel this would be good to have since there may be differences in appearances between anime and manga. (As in Yoruichi's case, I think the way Tite Kubo drew the cat image of her in the manga, it looks like an actual cat. The anime version looks like some horrid demonic beast).

Additionally, I would like to propose that the "First appearance" section of the template be moved up a bit (perhaps before "Professional Status"). Please discuss if including a "debut manga image" would be a good addition to the articles. --Tea time (talk) 06:11, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
