Can I ask? Why are we labelling images with arbitrary numbers? If anything isn't it easier and simpler to just put names? to avoid confusion. CafeAuBandage (talk) 04:18, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

If you mean filenames like File:Memoria_1895_c.png, that's just what they are called in the game's files. I feel like it's the most way of naming them, myself. Just peek at the source code of Gallery:Schools in Magia Record's L2D sections, some characters use GivenName_school.png, some GivenName_School.png, some GivenName_School_Number.png, some (Qualifier)_GivenName_School.png, some GivenName_Number.png, some GivenName_Surname.png, some GivenName_Surname_(School).png, some GivenName_school_clothes.png, some use surnames, some have typoes... No standardization at all, despite the more "descriptive" names. I'd rather we had a non-descriptive standard consistent with the game than a descriptive non-standard.

The numbers aren't arbitrary. When it comes to "Card_10014" it means the character's id number "1001" followed by their rarity "4 (star)". It's from the game's naming convention and I'd rather use that consistently than end up with "heruka memoria art", "heruka memoria art in the flower field" like how we did when we first started this section of the wiki. It makes it a bitch to come up with longer and more unique names everytime a new memoria for example is added. Sondenise (talk) 14:49, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
