Sorting
Is it possible to sort the characters on their family name, instead of their first name? and is it possible to change the sorting of the rank filters to be in the order of the actual hierarchy instead of alphabetical? --ShounenSuki (talk 05:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I understand sorting the ranks properly would be very difficult. It's not that big an issue to be wasting too much time and effort on, really. However, I do feel the characters should be sorted better, even if it does come down to manually adding a defaultsort to each page. Sorting characters by their given name is counter-intuitive and causes family members to not be sorted together. I really think this is an issue that should be solved. --ShounenSuki (talk 18:16, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Jutsu Infobox
What needs to be done to the jutsu infobox for it to be ready for implementation? Also, is it gonna be manual edits or bot replacing info? Simant (talk) 06:02, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Well the first problem i notice is that under type there is only the ability to select one option, whereas i have seen jutsu with defensive and offensive. Simant (talk) 06:23, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * It looks like the problem with the range is that it is doing the array map first then the switch. So is the arraymap is just there untill the switch starts to work? so the problem is getting the variable into the switch statement? Simant (talk) 09:05, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * its working ok.. i just am still seeing the extra commas in front of it and not the text changing to "short to mid". is it my cache or something? Simant (talk) 09:21, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Another issue is that there appears to only be space for one parent jutsu, when some game jutsu's and harem technique have multiple parents, shadow clone and transformation. Simant (talk) 02:18, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Deceased contricts not doing current events
Shouldn't articles where characters are deceased, have the episode and manga chapter that they died, so its not current events kinda stuff. Simant (talk) 20:53, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Stats pictures
Hello, I am not sure if I am speaking where I'm supposed to, but I have a suggestion: the uploading of character stats pictures (you know, the thing with the ninjutsu, taijutsu etc the octagonal thingy or what it's called). Some users have access to databooks (a thing which I do not) where stuff like these appear, if maybe an encouragement would be given to them to upload them etc. I think that those stats thingies are very important. Thanks for your attention. - MadaraU (talk) 09:48, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Jutsu Debuts
I was thinking it was kinda stupid having the debuts for the first time a jutsu is used in general, why not instead, have individual character debuts of using the jutsu in something like (example. (Ep#5;Manga#4) ) next to the character name, so that we can verify easier, and it would be more info to provide to people looking this stuff up. Simant (talk) 18:41, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

The articles "Images containing the character ..."
Something should be in these articles so they don't appear empty (red link signals emptiness, at least in my head). Maybe a tiny note saying 'These pictures contains the character (...)', just to signal that there actually is something there if you click the link at the bottom of the file page. ~Hakinu (talk 18:02, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Unsure about Picture Uploading
Hi Dantman, I've been editing many things of Naruto Wiki, however I am curious with the licensing portion. For pictures from the actual chapters that were on One Manga or by SleepyFans, what licensing would I use? I'm unsure which one to choose, if you could let me know I can properly upload the Tsuchikage and Mizukage photos. Revan46 (talk) 06:15, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Um did I do it right this time Dant? I wasn't sure if I had to put the things in the Summary box for the image. Let me know if I got it right this time. Sorry for the trouble.Revan46 (talk) 07:26, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the edit Dantman, it looks like another member got the proper licensing for the Mizukage, but I appreciate your help. Revan46 (talk) 07:26, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Current Mizu & Tsuchikage
The pages of Current Mizukage & Current Tsuchikage have info that fits the pages Tsuchikage & Mizukage, that now are redirects. Is there something I should know or is it just to copy and paste? Jacce | Talk 08:49, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

No problem! Also, there was one other dude a while back who was futzing with the whole articles and adding videos, idk if it is the same guy tho AMTNinja (talk) 23:08, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Locked?
Can you please unlock me from Madara's page? First of all, I didn't edit anything except some extra info on the Kage Summit Arc or whatever and second I don't care about the Danzo thing anymore. Axel Carnage (talk) 20:44, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Video Game Jutsu Rank
What do you want to do about this: The Question, The Answer to the Question? Set these jutsu back to unknown rank? Simant (talk) 17:02, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

I think i broke something.
I created a redirect from "Game" to "List of Video Games," but it messed up the justu media, and now even after the redirect was deleted, it is still messed up. What is wrong, is it just slow updating to fix it, or is there another problem? Simant (talk) 17:25, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * nvm, i fixed it with redirecting list of video games to game, then reverting.. Simant (talk) 19:11, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Jutsu Infobox
Hi Daniel. I've been wondering...what's happeneing with the infoboxes for technique pages? I mean, i know the problems with it, but when will it be done. If you need help, leave a message on my talk page. I'm a bit concerened...its been like over 5 months i think that the process of fixing the bug has been going on, lol.--NejiByakugan360 20:46, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Character Infobox: Additional Data
Could an infobox be made for: Ninja ID, Desired Opponent, Favorite Food, Least Favorite Food, Hobbies, Mission experience, chunin promotion age, academy graduation age, Personality, (etc, whatever else in the databook they tell us that is not listed); That works for multiple databooks; I don't really think its proper to be in trivia... Or if you like in trivia, then never mind. Simant (talk) 18:11, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

"Block user"
Is there a particular reason why I have this button all of a sudden? I haven't dared to check if it works. ~Hakinu (talk 11:14, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Same here. I also haven't dared to press the "Block User" Button since I feel like I shouldn't do it. Are editors such as ourselves permitted to use this?--Ethelion (talk) 12:44, 16 July 2009 (UTC)


 * That would just bring you to Special:BlockIP which would tell you that you don't have permissions to use the block form. Wikia just added block and email buttons into the masthead, but I guess they forgot to actually check if the user has permission to use those pages before they put the buttons up. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) Jul 16, 2009 @ 17:46 (UTC)

Soft Redirects
Why are soft redirects in Special:UncategorizedPages, normal redirects are not there. Can it be fixed so that they arn't listed there? Simant (talk) 23:18, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * ok, sure that sounds fine. what would that new category be a subcategory of though? Simant (talk) 23:29, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The following pages, can you convert them to soft redirects and categorize them, List of Genjutsu, List of Ninjutsu, List of Taijutsu. Permissions won't let me. Simant (talk) 23:43, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Spoiler Policy
Is there any written down, or official spoiler policy? I know about the usual "no spoiler until scanlation is out", but many times, and chapter 458 being the most recent example, I was wondering if having an official spoiler policy, possibly with a very easy to see link in the main page wouldn't make sure that people knew they're not supposed to post spoilers, and what is the wiki's definition of spoiler. There have been people who added info on 458 before the scanlation is out. If the community in general was made aware of an official spoiler policy, I think things would be smoother. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, just read it in the main page, I guess people just don't learn. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:15, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I think they just don't read the front page before they rush over to the page where the news are to be added. Bah. ~Hakinu (talk 22:31, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Lol But it's complete
I understand that my list in unsatisfactory in its presentation and in its content but if anything it could those who edit the site properly to actually change the way the search finds the jutsu. Only 1 A-Rank and 1 S-Rank jutsu show up when u look for S-Rank jutsu. I have listed any more, all of which I found ranked on this site. Which brings me to question the point of me searching it here knowing that my list is more comprehensive. If you would like the completed list let me know but until then this site will have inefficient searches which cause people like me who quest for specific knowledge such as that, to search through over 800 known justu in order to find little over 10 of S-Ranks.

Episode Infoboxes
Something with the !! after 'Genin' in the title is messing with Finally a clash! Jonin VS Genin!! Indiscriminate grand melee tournament meeting!! infobox, could you fix it? Simant (talk) 20:22, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

ANBU classification
Ehm... Dantman? Why are you putting ANBU into the classification row of the infobox? I was under the impression that we were going to keep it in the rank row... --ShounenSuki (talk 20:21, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Ehm... How exactly is that going to happen? I'm not an expert on this, but I don't see how a query like would end up returning both Kage and ANBU...
 * That aside, although the possibility of such queries is nice, I find proper and clear information more important. Putting ANBU in the classification row makes it seem like it isn't a rank, while it most certainly is. --ShounenSuki (talk 20:53, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * You could place ANBU between jōnin and Kage. Although not completely correct, it is ranked like that in the databooks.
 * I don't know if it's technically possible, but perhaps you could make ANBU a separate property that is placed in the rank row when the infobox is rendered. If you could, it might be useful: we could make similar properties for civilians (to seperate them from shinobi with unknown ranks), samurai (as they too have a separate ranking system) and the Medical Team members (who also fall outside of the standard shinobi ranking system, just like ANBU).
 * Another possibility might be to not give it a numerical equivalent, but a letter or nothing at all. I don't know if it is possible or if it works technically, though.
 * I'm sorry for creating this problem for you. I didn't realise it involved all this... --ShounenSuki (talk 23:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Your suggestion sounds all right. I think it would be a good solution to the current situation. --ShounenSuki (talk 01:02, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Question from newbie
I need to ask you, how many topics are not written yet?

Image tagging
Is it possible to make it impossible to upload without the fair use rationale? Or make it more obvious for the new contributers that images needs to be tagged with more than just the license? Very, very, veeery few (if not none) of the people that is uploading without any direct contact from other contributers/sysops knows what they're supposed to do. And warning tags on their images hardly kicks anybody into action. It would be really nice if we could come up with some way of kicking them into action without going to one and one to tell them exactly what to do. Maybe include something about the policies in the welcoming message? ~Hakinu (talk 22:35, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Bah. I wish people would read sometimes. But nope... ~Hakinu (talk 23:09, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Questions and Rollback
Hi Daniel! I just recently became a vandal fighter, like when you told me last time. Also, I began reverting unnecessary edits, as i finally figured out how. I now am prepared to have the rollback flag, but before anything, could you please brief me up on two things: What things are worth reverting, so that I do not revert anything the does not deserve to be reverted, and also please tell me a bit of how rollback is used. --NejiByakugan360 01:26, 6 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, ok, thank you so much! So, how do I actually use rollback...like, I mean do I click some sort of button that is next to the things on the top, like "Move", "History" and "Watch"? --NejiByakugan360 01:47, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
