Image Guidelines

Hey there! Sorry, we don't mean to scare you, but you are not allowed to upload any of the following:
 * Fanart of any kind.
 * Pictures not related to One Piece.
 * Duplicate images.
 * Videos of any kind, including videos from Youtube or similar sites.
 * .jpg, .JPG, or .JPEG image formats. .png is the preferred format.
 * Images with no source provided.
 * Images with no licensing or images without proper licensing.

 * Scanlation or translated images with English text.
 * Images that are not used for an article on this wiki (user pages and blogs are not considered articles).
 * Any images that violate any of the additional rules listed in the complete Image Guidelines.

For tips on how to upload a picture for the wiki correctly, check out this step-by-step instruction.

If you want to use pictures in your profile or blogs please use those that are already on the wiki or upload your images on another wiki. (See this blog for more details on how to do this).

Please read the Image Guidelines before uploading any more images to the wiki. If you have any questions about these rules, don't hesitate to ask. Thank you. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 05:17, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Images
Please read the above post regarding our image guidelines, as the ones you have been uploading are not suitable for this site. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 13:39, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Trivia
Unless those other series' characters are specifically connected to One Piece, then it is unnecessary to list them in Trivia. Listing every fictional character with magnetic/flame/sand powers would overwhelm the section and page. Marvel and Pokémon may be hugely popular properties but that doesn't mean they were inspirations for, or inspired by, this series' characters and concepts.

Spoiler Rules

Hey there! Your edits were found to be in violation of our Spoiler Rules. On this wiki, new information is only added once chapters are officially released by Shueisha. Shueisha releases the chapters to read for free on Manga Plus, typically on Sundays at 3:00 PM UTC. Any translations released before that time are pirated, and usually very flawed, so using them to update the wiki is not allowed.

Be sure to wait for the official release before adding content in the future. If you have any questions about these rules, don't hesitate to ask. Thank you. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 12:54, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

Your Ban
Since your uploads today ignored our Image Guidelines despite you being warned about this in the past, you have been banned for 3 days.

I would also caution you regarding edit wars and personal conduct. A reason not being given for undoing your edit, while not ideal, is not an allowance for you to edit war nonstop. If your edit is disputed, the page will remain on its original state while the matter is discussed in the talk page. Please keep this in mind in the future.

Egghead Infobox
Rather than continue another edit war, you should've participated in the discussion about the file. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 02:47, 20 August 2023 (UTC)

Final Saga
The destruction of Lulusia Kingdom effected the entire plot and was what would lead to the global war. Please discuss first before you reverse the edit.

Poor sentence structure in arc descriptions
In an attempt to avoid edit warring, I'm going to explain why I've been undoing your arc descriptions.

First let's look at Jaya. For comparison's sake (differences bolded), here's the current description:


 * After the Straw Hat Pirates' Log Pose points them towards the sky, they travel to the island of Jaya and work with Mont Blanc Cricket to determine if there is indeed an island in the sky. While in the pirate-populated port town of Mock Town, Luffy ends up in conflict with the overconfident and cruel Bellamy, while also meeting an enigmatic man who advises Luffy to never give up on his dreams.

And here's your revision:


 * After the Straw Hat Pirates' Log Pose points them towards the sky, they travel to the island of Jaya to determine if there is indeed an island in the sky. In the pirate-populated port town of Mock Town, Luffy ends up in conflict with the overconfident and cruel Bellamy. After, the Straw Hats meet Mont Blanc Cricket who accepts to help them. In other places in the World, important meetings are about to take place, both among Marines and among Pirates, where the pirate Blackbeard becomes one of the topics, whether planned or not. 

Alright, so let's break this down:

Mont Blanc Cricket - He's important to mention, and while chronologically they meet him after Bellamy, I think it's okay listing him here. Still, given better sentence structure, I could understand him being in a later part of the description.

After, the Straw Hats meet Mont Blanc Cricket - "After" is not a full sentence fragment, so leaving it alone like this with a comma feels weird and wrong.

who accepts to help them - "accepts to help them?" "Accepts" isn't a word you'd use in this context, this is all sorts of awkward.

In other places in the World - Blue-texting words like "other" and "places" is super 2005 cringe, like, please don't do that, ever. It's one thing to blue-text "an enigmatic man" as Blackbeard, since that's the man who is being specified, but "other" does not mean the Moby Dick, and blue-texting it like that is just super unprofessional.

important meetings are about to take place, both among Marines and among Pirates, - The meetings are already taking place, so they're not "about to take place". Also, among what Marines or Pirates? While that scene is a big one, it's not specifically critical for the arc description as a whole.

where the pirate Blackbeard becomes one of the topics, whether planned or not. - "where" being used here is bad enough, but "whether planned or not?" What does that even mean? Like, I get the idea you're trying to seed, that Blackbeard ends up becoming part of the conversation despite him not being the original topic, but this is super awkward phrasing.

Alright, now let's look at Wano. Same comparison, current description:


 * The Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance gather in Wano Country and prepare for the battle against the Beasts Pirates. The history of Kozuki Oden and his ties to Wano Country, Whitebeard and Gol D. Roger are revealed, and the Alliance assaults Onigashima to take down the allied forces of Kaidou and Big Mom. The resulting battle, as well as the events during the recent Levely, cause the world to go through dramatic changes.

And your suggested revision:


 * Luffy's group arrive at Wano Country to reunite with the rest of the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance. While they prepare for the battle against Kaidou and the Beasts Pirates, the history of Kozuki Oden and his ties to Wano Country, Whitebeard and Gol D. Roger are revealed. However, the events on Whole Cake Island have Emperor Big Mom heading to Wano Country as well, where she founds an Alliance with Kaidou. Then, the Alliance is starting its assault, causing the Raid on Onigashima. Meanwhile, the events during the recent Levely cause the world to go through dramatic changes.

A lot more changes here, so let's break this down again:

Luffy's group arrive at Wano Country - "Luffy's group arrive" is grammatically incorrect. That aside, comparing these two sentence fragments:


 * The Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance gather in Wano Country and prepare for the battle against the Beasts Pirates.


 * Luffy's group arrive at Wano Country to reunite with the rest of the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance. While they prepare for the battle against Kaidou and the Beasts Pirates,

These two express the same idea, only one is significantly shorter and more concise than the other without losing any critical information. Brevity is wit.

However, the events on Whole Cake Island have Emperor Big Mom heading to Wano Country as well, where she founds an Alliance with Kaidou. - This sentence...hoo boy. Okay, first off, "the events on Whole Cake Island have Big Mom heading to Wano Country". This is a grammatical nightmare. "the events have" is just an awkward mess. Are the "events" what propelled Big Mom to go to Wano Country? No, her desire to get revenge is what made her go. You can argue "same difference", but it's all about how it's written out. "have" is just wrong, moving on. "where she founds an alliance?" Like yeah you can argue that "founds" is being used here as "begins", but a) It's a mutual alliance, she isn't the one who initiates it, b) "founds" is just not the word you'd use here, c) "alliance" shouldn't be capitalized, and d) this idea is much more concise in the other description. Again, compare:


 * the Alliance assaults Onigashima to take down the allied forces of Kaidou and Big Mom.


 * However, the events on Whole Cake Island have Emperor Big Mom heading to Wano Country as well, where she founds an Alliance with Kaidou. Then, the Alliance is starting its assault, causing the Raid on Onigashima.

Look at how lengthy and unwieldy your suggested revision is compared to the abbreviated version which, again, gets the core ideas across in far fewer words.

Then, the Alliance is starting its assault - The alliance "is starting" its assault? What? Present participle is not what should be used here, this is just super awkward.

causing the Raid on Onigashima - What?? The assault IS the raid, how does their assault "cause" the raid? And, once again, to compare:


 * the Alliance assaults Onigashima


 * Then, the Alliance is starting its assault, causing the Raid on Onigashima.

It's like you took a bike pump and inflated this simple concept to the point of bursting.

Anyway, that covers pretty much all of the significant changes between these descriptions. Believe it or not, I'm not just undoing your revisions to be a dick; I am going in and manually making specific edits, trying to keep things as well-written and concise as possible. If you have an alteration you'd like to make that you think would be an improvement (beyond just reverting back to your previous revision), by all means run it by us. Otherwise, please don't revert these descriptions to versions with blatant grammatical issues throughout. The Pope 19:18, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
