Figures
Hi! I just saw that you uploaded this picture: http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Image:OPAnimeHeroesWinter4.jpg

Are those your figures or is it a picture you found somewhere else? FusionFaller 23:52, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Merchandise Image
Hi, Can you add the following category when you upload an image in one of the Merchandise pages If you know other editors that regularly upload some, maybe you can tell them too, thanks. Kdom 22:04, February 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Category:Merchandise images

Hi again,

When you upload images to replace others, its better to upload the existing version via the Upload a new version of this file menu. It helps keeping the historical of the article and it helps me maintaining their categorisation (I remove the category when an image is unused). Usually I check what other people do with the New pictures menu but you upload so many recently and you seems much more reliable than myself on this article.

Btw I've learned that it is better to put since otherwise all the images are classified at the letter F, with PAGENAME variable they are classified at the first letter of the file (if you replace it with toto it will be classified at the letter T). If their are images that are now useless, one can add the template to them Thanks Kdom 19:42, March 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sometimes I use Upload a new version, some other times I just make a new pic because the old one was badly labeled. But then I will put a template to old pix I replace with better named ones. Thanx for the tip.
 * As for the category with the pagename meta-variable, I'm not sure to understand. When I go to the [Category:Merchandise_images] page, I can't see any classification at all. --Xinyingho 20:13, March 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Then it's perfect :-). I have added a table of content so that you visualise better (especially if you click on F). I've thought that maybe we could create a Game image category to separate them from the figurines. All these images put together makes me realise how much products there is after One Piece trademark, that is really crazy :-) Kdom 21:12, March 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm actually only maintaining the figure section, but -believe me- there are a lot more of keychains, plushes and whatever stuff under the OP brandname ;). As for the Merch images content, I'm beginning to fathom the problem, but I still don't understand what's up after all: if you go to letter O, there are other pix than the ones with a name beginning with O...I don't know if the variable would really help in handling this, maybe it's a bug in the table of content module? --Xinyingho 21:33, March 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well it may not work perfectly while the images are mostly categorized under File. Also if you edit File:Box-6.jpg, you will see that it is redicted to OP_UC_EP_2, hence the letter O (that may not have been the better choice I have made so far... but when the files are badly name it's not very easy. I wished one can redirect files as one can do with articles). As you can see I have made the effort to redirect the files from Category:Portraits this week-end and now the TOC works fine, that was not very interesting editing but I think it's more usefull now (well I have to do the job for the Characters and the covers images categories... :-(.

OK, I have reorganized the Merchandise images category. Now they are mostly clasified by alphabetix order. I think that in the future it would be good to make a convention for the name. The most practical I found is the one you are using for Gashapon series : - (Ex GashaponGrandBattle1-Ace.jpg). It's better if the character name starts with an upper case. Maybe it would be good to rename some images which have weird name (like FIG-080730-1026S-4.jpg) so that they are grouped by series.

I also have created a Figurine subcategory which contains all the types of figurines. Contrary to the merchandise which are better classified by series, they are classified by character name (Ie GashaponGrandBattle1-Ace.jpg is redirect like that ). I just had a problem with images with several characters so I put them at the begining of the category into 4 groups : !Box, !Duo, !Group and !Strawhat (The ! allows to put them at the beginning). Maybe you can check if I have not made some mistakes or if you find something more appropriate. Kdom 13:16, May 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Impressive work man. I got nothing to say apart that you're right about renaming pix with random names. But I'll tell you something: I won't do it :p I think that most of the time I named pix as, without any dash in between. If you find it more useful, I will add a dash for new pictures. I will also add the figure category from now on. Nice work ! --Xinyingho 16:19, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

Just an idea coming: it would probably be better to put pictures in the !Duo category into both characters respective categories if technically possible. But it would require a lot of work to do so as this idea may be applicable to the !Group category too... --Xinyingho 16:30, May 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * I tried the double categorization but it does not work. What I don't know however is if all the Duo are part of a Duo set (like the Dragon ball series) or simply because there are 2 figurines on the picture. In the latter case maybe it's better to put them under Group, or to find separate pictures.


 * Concerning the name, I just need a clear separator between the serie and the name so as to be able as to use some parsing functions. A space is ok if there is none before. The upper case is more important as ace is put after Zoro. That's also why there is a difference between the POP and the Pop images...  Kdom 07:53, May 9, 2010 (UTC)

Template:Template
I undo your change on the Template:Template. Tipota is probably going to make a major change on it (cf template talk page) so it is not really the good time. Also it is a generic template, so it is not a good idea to modify it so that it only works for the template you are using. Either modify all the title sections or create a second template. Maybe the second solution would be better, at least it is worth a discussion. Kdom 21:57, March 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * All right, I updated it just to be able to have a 3.6 and 3.7 sections. But I'll just wait for Tipota's update and see thereafter what I'll do. --Xinyingho 22:12, March 2, 2010 (UTC)
