Battle Spirits Wiki

http://battle-spirits.wikia.com/wiki/Battle_Spirits_Wiki
I'm planning in doing some work over on wiki. I would also like to say thank you to Soaker who has put in a lot of work into the wikipedia and I hope I can help you.
I would like to suggest that there are more categories in the homepage and that you should put the wiki Latest Activity in a box on the right hand side of wiki.

Thanks for your help. I was thinking of making a how to play section, but you've done so for me. Though, there actually already is a page for High Speed (and most other effect). Be careful not to make duplicate pages.

Unfortunately, I totally made that wiki on a whim and don't know that much about how to modify the layout. But if you have any ideas, feel free to spruce up the front page. I just intend to leave the character/set menus there.

A couple general things that need to be added (I'll work on most of these eventually, but any help is great):

-More Re-directs
-Possibly infoboxes for cards/characters (which would basically mean re-working all the pages. ><) Infoboxes made, re-working in progress
-On the individual card pages, I also need to have the rarity and card artist added In progress
-More links from page to page. I've been mostly just typing and not adding links.
-Background info on card lore, and different characteristics

Hmmm... we'll have to start one by one first. I'm thinking we should make the Home Page more flashy. The layout of the homepage could be like Yu-gi-oh's one I think. I'll look into that case. I tried implementing the infobox but it comes up in red. I think I need to add the template on your wiki.
I think I should send some help in the helpdesk on wiki for each option you need help on.

Ah, I actually know how to create infoboxes. However, when I tried to make one, the default color combination was illegible, so I just went without one. My real question is how to fix the bg and text color on the info boxes.

I agree that the layout is pretty dull now. Of course, I don't want to rip-off the Yugioh wiki exactly, but something similar would be great.

But aside from the layout/infoboxes, the rest of the suggestions on my list will be easy.

You can join this and ask for help I think.

Thanks. I'll keep it in mind.

Do you know where I can find the latest Japanese cards?

Pictures of cards? Well, there's hobbygear and working koala
sorry I havent been able to edit the forum for a long time now....

Can you provide the links and how do I use Hobbygear?

I'm also going to have to apply for administrative powers for Wiki.
The Administrative powers allow more access to certain new things.

Watch this and you can give me admin rights

Okay, your an admin.

Concerning the info box thing, I made this really simple one:
battle-spirits.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Infobox_Character

Unfortunately, it's a bit buggy when I tried applying it to an actual character page. But I'm getting a headache trying to fix it, so I'll save that for another day.

While I'm at it, some more things to add, besides on my list from earlier:

"new users cannot post external links for 7 days"
so sorry, I cannot post links...yet. In hobbygear you see at the left, there's a menu of sorts there. Look for the BS logo, and you'll see the set listings. Cards are organized by rarity.

That's pretty good.
Thanks Slifer.

I need something like that but for the cards.

Edit:
battle-spirits.wikia.com/wiki/Template:CardTable

Forget what I did yesterday. I totally re-did this today, to make something more similar to the Yugioh/Vanguard wikis. Though, I haven't tested it on an actual page yet, so it probably still needs work.

I also fixed the character infobox, and started applying it to some pages.

But how do I use the template?

Dark-Shadow-X wrote:But how do I use the template?

Oh, that's easy. On any page, just paste this and fill in the necessary fields:

{{CardTable
|kanji =
|image =
|nameEN =
|nameIT =
|releasedJP =
|releasedEN =
|releasedIT =
|color =
|cost =
|reduction =
|symbols =
|family =
|ability =
|level =
|effect =
|flavor =
|rarity =
|illust =
|rulings =
}}

If not applicable, you can remove fields. (Ie: Not all cards have a different English name, so that field isn't usually needed.)

Do you know where I can find the Italian list of cards?

Yep: lppcollecting.it/battlespirits/

Wow. the Series 1 and Series 2 are quite expensive..

I also keep getting [
|300px]] On top of my pictures.

Oh, to fix that, just type in the image field placeholder2.jpg
(replacing that with the file name.)

Are there any mistakes, I'm making?
