Liking the new background. Hope we can keep this Wikia going in the right direction. Yurifan1 04:08, January 25, 2012 (UTC)
Really digging the new background. It's KOROMO! 07:27, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

Please don't delete the link to the special:all pages until a better alternative is setup. Ease of navigation is important. Users won't read or contribute to pages that they can't find. ChrisH8 08:50, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I've deprecated it in favor of the "Index" tab on the top navigation bar. Arsonal 09:29, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
Wordmark[]
In case you're curious, the font on the wordmark is Enter Sansman. I was unable to track down the exact font used in the Saki logo, but this is the closest I've found. Arsonal 21:19, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
Character and club stats[]
The Saki extra volume has them for certain characters and i have the whole book (Maho cover), so should we add them? If so we should add a template for it as well. King-Slayer 19:43, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
Well i think it would be interesting to add them. I think i saw a template for stats on the Fairy Tail wiki but i have no knowledge of templates. Yurifan1 01:51, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
- The Fairy Tail wiki is using one character infobox. I can easily extend our infobox character template to accomodate player statistics. I just need the names of the stats and if you want it separated from the mahjong heading. I was not thrilled with the stats that I saw posted in a forum, but that was when they were separated from player abilities. The stats are supposedly gathered by Maho? And they won't work in the "player styles / abilities" sections? Further discussion can be done at Template_talk:Infobox_character or see my next paragraph. A separate template could be made instead, but then I'll need an example of what you're looking for. BTW, it's odd that the Fairy Tail wiki is using tons of pictures while claiming fair use. I haven't seen that wiki before, but I might take a look at it for wiki organizational ideas.
- Also, take a look at the top of this talk page. Should we not follow that? I haven't really looked at posting in the community portal or the forums since I first joined. We might want to cut and paste some of these discussions to them. ChrisH8 16:19, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
- You could add them to the info box (which i'm not sure would look good) or you could create something similar to the Naruto stat template thing (sorry i dont have a good example), either would be fine but they are a lot of them. The stat names in order go Knowledge, Analysis, Will Power, Sense, Luck, Potential, Speed, Disruption, and Overall. I don't they were gathered my Maho but i'm not for sure about that one. Also with the club ratings i'm not sure of the translation but they go Club Tier, Popularity, Cohesion, Personality, and Strengths.King-Slayer 18:46, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
- After viewing it in the infobox i'm not sure thats were it should be (sorry for your hard work). I think it would be pretty easy to add them to a table and put them with playing styles / abilities. What say you to that? Also i agree with you on the forums and portal. afte this discussion we should use them for anything other than design or content changes.King-Slayer 22:25, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Whether using an infobox or a table, it's probably best to use a template for the stats. I upgraded the infobox_character and will try to make the stats section collapsible. I suggest that you input the stats using the infobox. If we still want a table later, the parameters can be cut and pasted to the table template. You won't have to input them again. (If I'm wrong, I'll re-input them myself.) As for the club ratings, that sounds like it would be best in an infobox. You could try creating one yourself, as a basic one should be fine. I'll get to it eventually if you don't. ChrisH8 11:00, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
Copying from Wikipedia[]
As we know, there's a whole slew of text that "could" be copied and transported from there to here. Well, here are the conditions for it.
Apparently. The two linked items in the reply are terms and conditions for doing so. Well, this is not a decision that I am going to make on my own. Having done plenty of the edits in the episode summaries page, it won't bother me if that text gets copied. KyuuAL 09:15, May 22, 2012 (UTC)
Well the person who answered your question didn't seem to keen on the idea. However since you wrote a lot of that i wouldn't mind if you copied and pasted, but that me.Yurifan1 01:13, May 23, 2012 (UTC)
It's the same license (CC-BY-SA 3.0), so there should be no problems. You need to export the page from wikipedia with the full history (just to be safe) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export) and import it here (http://saki.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Import), but I've never done it myself. -- 84.134.3.114 11:20, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
People are welcome to take over the anime media sections from me. I only took those on because the Achiga-hen anime was coming due and those pages were empty. Don't expect more than a trickle of effort there from me. Episode summaries are the only things in Wikipedia worth transferring over. There's only one volume summary.

Organization focus[]
Somewhat of an unwritten rule, but this idea really really helps when it comes to keeping things organized. One article, one topic. Otherwise, one article can briefly cover a whole slew of topics, which themselves can have article pages on their own. Using this principle can maintain an article structure that makes sense and organized. KyuuAL 09:33, May 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm for it. I like to keep things organized somewhat.Yurifan1 23:40, May 23, 2012 (UTC)
- It depends on the topic. We wouldn't want to slice up the Saki Miyanaga page by removing the plot elements. Instead, redundant plot elements should appear in volume and episode pages when they are written. Node pages will naturally bud off other pages if and when they are needed. The concept of "one article, one topic" belongs in a manual of style page to keep this talk page focused on front page topics. Even then, it would be a mistake to apply it dogmatically. ChrisH8 00:02, May 24, 2012 (UTC)
- I think i agree with Chris here. It would really have to depend on what the topic was. King-Slayer 00:05, May 24, 2012 (UTC)
Poll[]
Add "Desu-wa!~" to the new poll, then we'll talk. "I'm not a self help book. I'm just a fucked up kid." - Unknown (talk) 16:15, August 2, 2013 (UTC)
