Template talk:Swordsmen Gallery

Spandam
Does Spandam fit to be listed under normal swordsmen, or under "Devil Fruit Powered"? Because in Chapter 375, he is seen with a cutlass with low-ranking marines usually use. It's known that actually he usually uses Funkfreed for combat, and he even hinted it much before calling him to turn into its sword form.--212.150.174.178 14:04, September 25, 2013 (UTC)

This gallery has hit its limit, now what?
It appears this gallery hit its 100 portrait limit. Now what?

Has this ever happened before? KingCannon (talk) 01:35, November 30, 2015 (UTC)

Divide it up into a couple templates? Devil-Fruit powered, non canon, etc? 02:22, November 30, 2015 (UTC)

That's the thing though, it's already divided.

The main section alone has 100 portraits (each section can have up to a 100 portraits, apparently). I can't seem to add any more to it.

Are you suggesting dividing the main section into smaller ones? What criteria would be used? KingCannon (talk) 02:25, November 30, 2015 (UTC)

Is that okey?

You can split it up by the arc or saga they were introduced in or by their affiliations and organizations. I would have also recommended location, except they keep moving around.(Shadoguardian (talk) 08:14, November 30, 2015 (UTC))

I'd also suggest to split the template in smaller ones, I think location is the best choice (like 4 seas, paradise and new world)

Location is a bit weird because it might lead to confusion. Drake, for example, is from one of the 4 seas, but he was introduced in the Grand Line.

Separating by organization seems like it would be better (pirate, marine, civilian...). This could be extended to the former swordsmen and DF-powered section.

We'll need to make more divisions as we currently have 76-77 portraits in the main gallery, and the tendency is for the number to increase. KingCannon (talk) 20:41, December 1, 2015 (UTC)

Definition of Swordsman
Rhavkin is incorrectly adding people to the template when they aren't shown ever using a sword. If we go by his logic then we would need to add Luffy due to Nightmare Luffy. SeaTerror (talk) 20:21, December 2, 2015 (UTC)

List of people seen with a sward but aren't seen using it: Koshiro, Koze, Packy, Puppu, Ross, Doberman (seen in anime only), Yamakaji, Lola (human), Comil, Stainless, Doma (anime only), Blenheim, Elmy, Ramba, A.O, Delacuaji, Islewan, Andre, Zodia, Wallem, Kinga, Arthur, Great Michael, Albion, Gyro, Bobbin, Dagama, Wanda, Roddy, Sicilian, Higuma, Mizuta Madaisuki, Mizuta Mawaritosuki, Gol D. Roger, Thatch (anime only), Fisher Tiger, Basil Hawkins, Senor Pink, Sheepshead, Galley, Hera, Bismarck, Binz and the one who started this edit war Baby 5.

As for Nightmare Luffy, he is not a separate character and Luffy isn't a swardman. Neither is Sanji despite using knives when he fought Wanze.
