Forum:Battles

I've noticed that general information on a battle looks quit ugly. I think it would be good to have a Battle template similar to the one used on wikipedia and in many other wikia. El Chupacabra 14:12, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

 * I agree, i've had this idea for a while and I was about to make a forum until i saw this one. Since we list a character's every battle we should make an article about each battleDionit 20:51, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

The template I agree with. But I don't think we should make an article for every single battle. That's just too many. Didn't we have a Nami Vs. Kalifa article that got deleted a while back? An article for each battle sounds like a bad idea. 23:35, December 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * It is a bad idea. Doesn't the Bleach wikia do that? SeaTerror 15:55, December 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * The Spanish OP wikia has done an article for each battle, but I don't like the final result, I also think it's a bad idea. 16:33, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

I completely disagree on making all the fights into articles.. With the template I dunno... I wanna see a sample first..

A template...then I guess it would be like a table with the possibility to expand and show more info regarding the battle. But it will need a lot of work since every battle will need to be a little described and also I would even recommend an image. I'll make a sample. So tell me when it's done

No, this is a bad idea. If we make separate pages for every fight, it would overcrowd the wiki and produce a bunch of useless pages. What would constitute a fight page? Isn't Zoro vs. random Marine soldiers a "fight"? Here is an example of a battles section. Are you guys suggesting that we make this section better?

Well I finished the template as a subpage of mine. It's here User:Ricizubi/Template, if you have any suggestions and problems with it, just write them on this forum since this is where we should discuss this. I hope this is what you wanted.

I can even show you an example of how it works here:

Hope you like it

Looks pretty darn good to me.

For every battle?That's quite alot of workl 20:43, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with FireFist 553. It is too much work to do it for every single battle for each character involved, especially if it spans multiple chapters. Think about the CP9 fights for example. Those spanned multiple chapters and will just be a pain to write out. This is why we have references. If someone really wants to know the details of a battle, they can watch the episode or read the chapter. I still don't like this idea. 20:50, December 24, 2011(UTC)

So we're not going to do it? 21:03, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

The template looks nice.. But I still disagree.. It's too much work. If they want to learn about the fight, they should read the actual chapter.. Thats why we have references.. We cant write every detail here.

Ok, I think that we need to add a little more detail to the battles, so what if we have a table that shows just basic information, like participants, location, time, and victor, as well as an image. I can create what I am thinking about if you want me too.

Alright here it is: http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/User:Pacifista15/Sandbox#Battles_Table The chapters are incorrect, because I was in a hurry, but that is the general idea. All the battles for a character will be in one table, so no separate templates.

I think the way we list battles now is fine. I mean, we have references for when battles happen. It's superfluous. We're trying to make work by making problems where there aren't any. I mean, it's been a year and a half since anyone commented on this forum and we were fine. So why try to find problems where we don't have any? 00:50, December 25, 2011 (UTC)

The point of this format would put all the info in one place, so it is easier for someone to find out information quickly without sifting through several pages. Just sayin.
