== Countdown ==
== Main Page cleanup ==
 
Now that the broadcast is over, the countdown should probably be removed. However, simply removing it looks pretty weird, the page looks empty without its red box at the top. SO what do we do, color the "Contents" box in red? Leave everything as-is and just remove the countdown boxes? --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 09:47, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
:For now, I made the box you see now. However, it'd be strange to leave it like that forever. Personally, I don't think the page looks weird without the red box. It's probably just a matter of habit. --[[User:KFYatek|KFYatek]] 11:07, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
:Could always have a countdown of the BD and manga releases. --[[User:Holycrap|Holycrap]] 17:43, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::Yes, but eventual times are vague. DVD/BD vol.1 launch date is April 27th. When we should countdown to? Midnight JST of 26th/27th? Opening of first DVD/BD store in Japan on 27th? ;) When we had concrete times, we could countdown, now it's a bit too fuzzy in my opinion. --[[User:KFYatek|KFYatek]] 17:54, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
:Yeah, seeing the page with its big red boxes just looked more familiar since it's been like that for months; it's probably just a matter of habit indeed. I also considered using the countdown for manga/BD/OST/other stuff, but indeed it's a bit fuzzy. Maybe make the countdown look fuzzy too; something like the Ubuntu countdown? (basically, it only counts the number of days left, then on release date it shows "it's almost there!", and "it's out!" when relevant). Another option is to not make countdowns at all, but use the red box to put notices when something gets released (i.e. on the 27th and for one day or so, it should state that the first BD is out, then disappear until the 25th of May, and so on) --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 18:58, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::I was thinking about a day-only countdown, too, but for some reason I thought that it's not possible on MediaWiki. I think the existence of <tt>&lt;countdown /&gt;</tt> tag made me think that, but it's probably just a matter of a little JavaScript-enabled template. The variant with announcements is also quite plausible. --[[User:KFYatek|KFYatek]] 19:12, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
 
== Changing the menus ==
 
As I said on the Media talkpage, I think we'll have to refactor this page's menus a bit. I think we should somehow:
* Separate the pages about paid material ([[Products]] and [[Merchandise]]) from pages that talk about the content, and give them their own section ([[Manga]] for instance, isn't about buying the manga, but about the story)
* Create a new section ''Media'' where we'd stuff [[Media]] (renamed and split in two pages for the occasion, see its talkpage), [[Connect|Opening]], [[Magia|Ending]], [[Soundtrack|OST]] and [[Character Songs]]
* Maybe move [[Manga]] into the "Setting" section too?
* I don't know what we do about [[Translated Official Documents]]. It doesn't really belong to the paid material, but it doesn't really belong to the new ''Media'' section either
In other words, having a hierarchy that looks more like the sidebar in a way --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 21:24, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
:The appearance of a new "Novel" section made me think of a new menu structure again. I propose the following:
:'''Left column''': About the Puella Magi universe
:* Setting
:** Characters
:** Locations
:** Glossary
:* Series
:** Anime series (link to the "Episodes" page)
:** Madoka manga
:** Kazumi Magica
:** Oriko Magica
:** Novel (if the page grows enough)
:* Products
:** Blu-rays, DVD, manga, ... (link to the "Products" page)
:** Merchandise
:** Opening/Ending/OST/Character Songs
:'''Right column''': Derived content
:* Articles and community Content
:** Runes
:** Notes
:** Articles & analyses
:** Theories and speculah
:** Facts & observations
:* Media
:** Translated Official Documents/Twitter
:** Teasers & CMs
:** Fanworks
:** Events and venues
:* Communication
:** Threads
:** Speculah pad (do we need it anymore?)
:** IRC
:Your thoughts? --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 17:54, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
::Right column? AS in, a side bar on the right? Hmm... I'm not sold, I'd need to see how it looks first. But yeah, I mostly agree, aside from two two pages, Glossary and Locations. I'm gonna be honest, I don't really like either.<br>The first one... I don't get it.I understand those terms are the basics of the show, but then again, precisely because of that, shouldn't we have more detailed pages on them?<br>As for Locations, as of now it's just a list of list of stuff in Mitakihara and random witch barriers. Even if someone (well... me) added things from Asunaro (Kazumi's city), it'd still feel a bit empty and pointless. --[[User:BrickBreak|BrickBreak]] 18:33, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
:::Actually, I was talking about the menu ''on'' the Main Page, not the sidebar...<br>Also, I just rearranged the links that are already there. I see no need to delete either of the links you cite: as you say, Glossary is the basics, so it should stay in the menu (if you come to this site from a Google search, that probably means your primary goal is to find information about the series; the speculah and stuff only comes afterwards). As for the Locations page, besides its emptiness, it's retweeted frequently so it's probably pretty popular (too bad I do not have access to more detailed/reliable statistics though) --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 18:39, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
::::Do'h. Second time I've pulled a fail like that.<br>In that case, I completely support your rearrangement.<br>Either way, I wasn't suggesting a deletion for either page. For the glossary, I was suggesting detailed pages on Soul Gems, Grief Seeds and the such. It's nothing but a suggestion, though.<br>As for the Locations page, it needs a overhaul, but this time I'm out of ideas. Had no idea it was tweeted that often (or any page, for that matter. People tweet the weirdest stuff, no offense to ourselves :P), that's a lovely fact. --[[User:BrickBreak|BrickBreak]] 18:55, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
:Dear wikibros, now is your chance to tell me if you don't like the new menus, as I am thinking of changing it one of these days, now that the Documents redesign is on its way. --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 20:57, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 
== Copyright guidelines? ==
 
It just hit me recently, when I saw the Drama CD's translation on the talk page, and BD's yonkoma's scanlation uploaded. In terms of legality, we're technically in the grey zone, as eg. hi-res screenshots don't qualify as fair use, but I don't know of anyone ever making a big deal out of it. But shouldn't we make some kind of copyright guidelines, just to be sure nobody crosses the line between gray and black? We all (at least I hope so) instinctively know that links to fansubs and full chapter scanlations are a no-no, but things like the aforementioned Drama CD translations and official yonkoma scans are somewhat more vague. Maybe I'm a bit paranoid, but none of us wants getting a C&D one day, and when they may actually send one, they might want us to delete everything they'll find infringing, even though there'd be only one thing actually concerning them.<br />What do you think? Should we actually make some guidelines or am I just being paranoid? --[[User:KFYatek|KFYatek]] 20:51, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
:Not sure how old is this [[Guidelines#Scanlations.2C_fansubs_and_copyrighted_material]].  I personally would remove this section all together, just to be sure - [[Ume_Aoki#Doujin_Gallery]]. - [[User:Prima|Prima]] 04:31, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
::Since this is doujin material I think we are ok. Technically this isnt official material, since it was produced outside the official industry. I am sure the law treats doujin differently. --[[User:Mutopis|Mutopis]] 04:46, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
::I hear your concern and that's one reason I replaced the official pages with English translated ones, leaving only a few pages that are actual scans of her original work.  Remember, Ume's doujin is only sold in Japanese in Japan, and having the pages altered into English essentially devalues everything we've posted to any potential Japanese buyers.  If her work gets translated and sold outside Japan, we can re-evaluate that.  -[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 05:34, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 
== Site Maintenance ==
General maintenance question, is there a way we can delete uploaded files or a procedure to request them to be deleted?  Looks like from mediawiki, this requires sysop permissions [http://mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?4602-Cannot-Delete-Uploaded-Files]. --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 08:47, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
:That probably needs administrative rights indeed. You can still add the files to the [[:Category:Deletion requests]], and we'll do it when we feel like it. Just out of curiousity, what do you want to be deleted? --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 13:45, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
::I think he may be talking about the first 5 pages of Oriko he uploaded yesterday, before the [[guidelines]] have been established. I've added them to deletion requests, too. --[[User:KFYatek|KFYatek]] 14:21, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
::KFY got most of them.  It took me a few minutes to figure out to go to the file, edit, and paste in [[:Category:Deletion requests]].  But managed to do that with another upload file and now I'm set.  Thanks. --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 14:38, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
 
== Scans ==
Version 1 zip for the editors of the documents pages.  http://www.mediafire.com/?2dpopbaa7flo8y3  File won't be up too long.  Please do not distribute. -[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 00:12, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
:Added a password protect to the file.  Please post if you still need the scans and I'll release it. --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 23:35, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
::If you really wanna share this file in stealth mode, wouldn't it be easier to rendezvous with the contributors on the IRC and sending them by XDCC or something? (or even send them the link by PM) --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 06:31, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
:::Oh well, I'm use to being anonymous so I don't even think to ask people for IRC or PM info.  I figure if anyone wants access, I can leave it up for a bit.  I've unlocked the file for now. --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 06:52, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 
==Sidebar glicthing out==
 
KFY had already noticed this, and so had I, but I caught it again and [[:File:1.png|captured it]]. The items in the toolbox change, but only it and the Navigation links appear. It has lasted for at least the last 10 minutes, on every page. It eventually disappears, though. --[[User:BrickBreak|BrickBreak]] 22:29, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
:Just saw the bug, probably something related to caching. Not sure if it's my setup or MediaWiki's bug though. --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 21:02, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 
== Puella Magi Imageboard ==
 
A user suggested to me in IRC few days ago that we should have our own image board (or text board, whatever) setup here, probably as board.puella-magi.net or as a separate domain. There's no extra burden to the server if I were to setup one. What's a general opinion on this? --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 19:18, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:Whatever is easiest to house and manage the influx of scans and art we're planning on getting.  I have no opinions, otherwise.  One question, if we went with a different medium, would the decision be made soon?  Just useful to know on how much effort to put in on uploading scans etc. now on the wiki.  --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 19:22, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
::I'll probably need to write up a custom board engine if we are going to create an image board (since I don't like how Wakaba handle file uploads) but since the wiki and the board would not share file uploads, I think uploading like always should be OK. (Probably don't upload work-in-process images for the time being.) --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 19:53, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::That sounds like a lot of work.  Would it be worth the benefits of having an image board?  --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 19:59, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
::::Nothing is worthless for Madoka Magica! We could also use it as illust. dump, and such anyways. --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 20:03, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::OK, sounds good to me.  Modified version off what I posted earlier today, "Sometimes I wish there was a real Madoka fansite somewhere and I could have my own personal corner to just post random stuff I have that I like."  I don't feel I can do that on the wiki, partly because it's a formal site and I don't want to detract from the informativeness of it with a clutter of random things and partly because I'd like the freedom to delete and rotate things off/on.  So I'm excited if I can have something like that.  --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 20:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::I'll probably have some free time for the next few weeks, so I'll gladly give a hand with the coding if you want (although I'm not sure we need to write our own engine. There must be more than one engine available out there, right?). --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 20:13, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
::::If you know anything other than Wakaba (that could upload to a remote server), please feel free to suggest it. --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 20:17, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::Link also points out Danbooru type board.  I don't know if that's better since I don't know how it compares with Wakaba, but that's an option.  --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 21:01, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
::::::Personally I prefer 2chan-style boards, since it allows for both discussion and image dump. Boorus have too much emphasis on images, and not enough on messages. Just my opinion though --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 21:09, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::::I'm really fine with anything, just the sound of "coding an engine" sounds difficult and time-consuming so I was concerned.  But I don't know jack about it so I'll stay out of the technical stuff and stick with my usual routine that I do know.  --[[User:Randomanon|randomanon]] 21:24, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::Actually I do not, I just figured out there could've been more than one. In fact, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_board#Software the other wiki] only references three, two of which have stopped their development... Guess it's time to code Madokachan then --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 20:42, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:Having our own imageboard may be a more convenient way to dump images than the current wiki system (I mean, for images that don't really belong anywhere in particular). Might also make the whole magazine translation process easier to do, as randomanon said. On the other hand, I don't think there'd be much Madoka-related discussion (aside from news and magazine scans), so I'd rather go with an image board rather than a text board. --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 19:37, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
::And for silly stuff too ;) --[[User:0x99|0x99]] 19:53, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
:::Of course, that went without saying :) --[[User:Homerun-chan|Homerun-chan]] 20:00, 13 June 2011 (UTC)


==Feeling Slow==
I've taken the liberty to clean up the Main Page styling a little. It's using the same layout as before, but with more consistent spacing/etc. so it looks a lot less cluttered. It's also now and a lot less broken when viewing on a mobile phone. Adding/removing columns should now be a lot less insane. I'm unsure what to do with the News/Wishlist links, though, since they haven't been updated for quite a long time. -- [[User:0x99|0x99]] ([[User talk:0x99|talk]]) 10:13, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

<i>The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of Japan announced Oct. 31 that the anime TV series "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" was among five works nominated for the 32th Nihon SF Taisho Award.
== Main visual ==


The awards cover a wide range of genres, including novels, criticism, manga, visual works, illustrations, music and nonfiction, and are restricted to works released over the year to Aug. 31.
Would it be worthwhile to add the Scene0 main visual to the main page, too? I think a tabber would work for the desktop view, and on mobile there should be enough space to add it below Rising's. [[User:EPF|EPF]] ([[User talk:EPF|talk]]) 13:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

:: I'm not sure… I've been so used to seeing the name beside the key visual and now it's moved below it… I can't find any real complaints though… ~ [[User:Celtic Minstrel|Celtic Minstrel]] ([[User talk:Celtic Minstrel|talk]]) 15:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
::: OK, let's try again. What about this one? -- [[User:0x99|0x99]] ([[User talk:0x99|talk]]) 15:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
:::: Oooh, I like it! Thanks [[User:EPF|EPF]] ([[User talk:EPF|talk]]) 15:30, 24 September 2023 (UTC)


The other four nominees are Koji Mishima's "Dynamic Figure" from Hayakawa Publishing Corp.; Sayuri Ueda's "The Ocean Chronicles" from Hayakawa; Hideaki Sena's "Kibo" (hope) from Hayakawa; and Junya Yokota's "Kindai Nihon Kiso Shosetsu-shi: Meiji-hen" (A history of Japanese modern fantasy novels: Meiji Period) from Pilar Press Corp.
==Not sure where to put this==


The first three are novels. The last is a work of nonfiction.
So... I'm not sure why I'm not an autoconfirmed user, but I don't know where to put this question? -- [[User talk:ReiAyanami|ReiAyanami]]
:I think you may need to wait few more hours. Autoconfirm is set to 3 edits and 7 days from the date of registration. From what I see, you should get autoconfirmed today (Nov 7) at 20:18:23 (UTC) -- [[User:0x99|0x99]] ([[User talk:0x99|talk]]) 14:30, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

"Puella Magi Madoka Magica" was directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, who has worked on many popular anime titles. Gen Urobuchi, who works for Nitroplus Co. and has created many hit anime, wrote the script.
== Future of Fanworks ==


It is in the "magical girl" genre, featuring cute female characters in a dark fantasy environment and has a complicated, multi-layered storyline.
'''(This was originally on my talk page but I have moved it here as it concerns the whole wiki.)''' While not an official Wiki, this is a Wiki for official content. Outside of personal OC's on the user's pages, is there a reason to include fanworks on the wiki? Fan roleplays have long since died, and many games are likely dead due to flash player shutting down. Is there a reason to have them? [[User:Amaterasu|Amaterasu]] ([[User talk:Amaterasu|talk]]) 17:24, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
:I think it's best to keep what we have now as an archive rather than remove it since they were a part of the fanbase during the early days. We keep [[Poorfag]]'s page up for a reason since it was a meme thing and it doesn't interfere with official pages much like OCs on our user pages. As long as they're kept separate from the official stuff, I think it's ok. I believe you can still play the games even though flash player shut down, I remember there being a big project to archive and make old flash games playable when the shut down was initially announced. -[[User:The Witch&#39;s House|The Witch&#39;s House]] ([[User talk:The Witch&#39;s House|talk]]) 02:34, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
::I'm also very much agree with this. For a more early meme and such we could make a banner that this was part of the community in the early days and are no longer updated. For ongoing content such as [[Fanworks]] I think the list of games/media/crossover are still worth keeping (and possibly updating). --- [[User:0x99|0x99]] ([[User talk:0x99|talk]]) 06:39, 23 December 2023 (UTC)


This is the first time in three years that an anime title has been nominated for the award. "Coil a Circle of Children" won the grand prize in 2008, while the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" anime series and "Innocence: Ghost in the Shell 2" film also won in previous years.
== GunsGirlZ Crossover ==


For more information, visit the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of Japan official website at (http://www.sfwj.or.jp/list.html).</i>
So I have been just looking around the wiki, and I stumbled across the crossover page! I read it, expecting it to have the GGZ collab in it... but it wasn't there? I was wondering if it just hadn't been added yet, or if theres a reason that it hasn't been! The GGZ collab is probably my favorite PMMM collab, with the battle cats coming in second :P

Main Page cleanup

I've taken the liberty to clean up the Main Page styling a little. It's using the same layout as before, but with more consistent spacing/etc. so it looks a lot less cluttered. It's also now and a lot less broken when viewing on a mobile phone. Adding/removing columns should now be a lot less insane. I'm unsure what to do with the News/Wishlist links, though, since they haven't been updated for quite a long time. -- 0x99 (talk) 10:13, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

The News page could probably be updated by trawling the Main Page edit history, and maybe adding other bits if you can think of them. With some work it could even be arranged so that it's the source of the news on the main page (wrapping the lines that should be on the main page in <onlyinclude> tags). ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 13:33, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
Good idea. I'll find some time to do it. -- 0x99 (talk) 13:49, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
I did this, seems to work great. Now to populate 2015 to 2021... -- 0x99 (talk) 12:42, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
That's slightly different from my thought, but it's probably easier to work with this way anyway. ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 15:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Main visual

Would it be worthwhile to add the Scene0 main visual to the main page, too? I think a tabber would work for the desktop view, and on mobile there should be enough space to add it below Rising's. EPF (talk) 13:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

I've made some adjustments, what do you think? -- 0x99 (talk) 13:18, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
I'm not sure… I've been so used to seeing the name beside the key visual and now it's moved below it… I can't find any real complaints though… ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 15:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
OK, let's try again. What about this one? -- 0x99 (talk) 15:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
Oooh, I like it! Thanks EPF (talk) 15:30, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Not sure where to put this

So... I'm not sure why I'm not an autoconfirmed user, but I don't know where to put this question? -- ReiAyanami

I think you may need to wait few more hours. Autoconfirm is set to 3 edits and 7 days from the date of registration. From what I see, you should get autoconfirmed today (Nov 7) at 20:18:23 (UTC) -- 0x99 (talk) 14:30, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Alright, thank you! I didn't realize it was so exact. :) ReiAyanami (talk) 19:28, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Sorry for this, we used to have a lot of spam back in the day (who made a few edits to get autoconfirmed then proceeded on creating an SEO spam page). -- 0x99 (talk) 21:07, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Future of Fanworks

(This was originally on my talk page but I have moved it here as it concerns the whole wiki.) While not an official Wiki, this is a Wiki for official content. Outside of personal OC's on the user's pages, is there a reason to include fanworks on the wiki? Fan roleplays have long since died, and many games are likely dead due to flash player shutting down. Is there a reason to have them? Amaterasu (talk) 17:24, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

I think it's best to keep what we have now as an archive rather than remove it since they were a part of the fanbase during the early days. We keep Poorfag's page up for a reason since it was a meme thing and it doesn't interfere with official pages much like OCs on our user pages. As long as they're kept separate from the official stuff, I think it's ok. I believe you can still play the games even though flash player shut down, I remember there being a big project to archive and make old flash games playable when the shut down was initially announced. -The Witch's House (talk) 02:34, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
I'm also very much agree with this. For a more early meme and such we could make a banner that this was part of the community in the early days and are no longer updated. For ongoing content such as Fanworks I think the list of games/media/crossover are still worth keeping (and possibly updating). --- 0x99 (talk) 06:39, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

GunsGirlZ Crossover

So I have been just looking around the wiki, and I stumbled across the crossover page! I read it, expecting it to have the GGZ collab in it... but it wasn't there? I was wondering if it just hadn't been added yet, or if theres a reason that it hasn't been! The GGZ collab is probably my favorite PMMM collab, with the battle cats coming in second :P

Honestly it just hasnt been updated. you're more than welcome to add the info if you'd like (I dont play it unfortunately but it looked cute!)Sondenise (talk) 21:56, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
I can't see anything about the crossover on the page you linked to. You should link not to the other wiki's main page but to a page actually talking about the crossover. Otherwise there's no point in adding the link at all. ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 02:18, 23 March 2024 (UTC)


Oh, sorry about that. The link broke... Sadly since the computer I use is limited by my school I can't fix the link,, I'm sorry haha madolily .+* (talk)♥

Looks like someone else fixed it for you, so it's okay. ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 17:33, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
