Fairy Tail Wiki:Anime Summary Guild

Anime Summary Guild
The Anime Summary Guild is a group of Fairy Tail Wiki Users who have the task of correcting and updating the episode pages of our wiki, and writing new and correct episode summaries as the episode are released. These users are dedicated to the task of making sure the episode pages within the Wiki are correct! All users should read our Summary Guidlines, before you start writing them.

Process
Here at the Anime Summary Guild, you pick up jobs from the Jobs section below, and write the summary for it. We do jobs by arcs, meaning that all the episodes from one arc should be on the job list at one time. If an arc is complete then the Guild Master will post the new jobs. All Jobs are worth the same amount of Jewels, and at the end of the month, IamJakuhoRaikoben will tally all the points and whoever has earned the most Jewels will be called the Mage of the Month. If you see a job that you want to take, simply put *taken* and your signature beside it. Once you are finished, place *jobcompleted* beside it, and it will be checked for completion.

When signing up for a job please use insead of ~ so that you're timestamp isn't left.

If you wish to join the Guild, simply bring it up on the talk page, and I will add your name to the list of members. All users should be dedicated to their jobs, and must not be anonymous users. If you wish to join the guild, you must create an account.

Excommunication from our Guild
Any users that go two month without taking at least four jobs or more, will be excommunicated from the Anime Guild. When you are excommunicated, you must take our Guild's Badge off of your userpage within two days of being notified of your excommunication. If you do not remove it, one of your fellow Guild members will. Excommunications aren't permanent and if you wish to rejoin the guild, simply re-apply.

Summary Guidelines
Firstly, as you guys know I am a contributor to the Bleach Wiki, so I got the general idea for the episode page formats as well as some of the guidelines from them. I'd like to extend my thanks for that. Now below are the Guidelines to keep in mind when writing summaries and they are also things that might be helpful if you writing an episode summary for the very first time. They are also designed to comply with wiki best practice.

1. Please keep in mind that this is a wiki and so please do not speculate when writing the episode summary. Just describe things as they unfold, and when in doubt, go for neutral tone and wording.

2. The episode summary is not suppose to be a substitute for actually watching the episode. As such, there is no need to give minute details of everything that's happening. This includes battles. There is a project that is going to have battle details, so every part of the fight does not need to be stated. Remember, it is a summary only.

3. Links - please consider providing one where you think that the reader of the summary might want more information on either a character or a term.

4. Please do not forget to fill in the other episode details when, before, or after editing the summary, such as the characters in order of appearance list and the powers and techniques list.

5. In the summary we should only include what happened in the episode. Recaps and Previews from the previous episode(s) and for the next episode are not to be added.

6. The Summaries should be written with in universe wording meaning terms such as the scene then switches or a flashback begins or the episode begins with shouldn't be in the articles.

7. The articles should have a picture every one or two paragraphs and the picture should correspond to the text that is directly next to it. The pictures should alternate meaning if a picture is left in a previous paragraph then it should be right in the next.

8. The episode page should go in this order Introduction (the introduction should not have a header that says introduction), Summary, Characters In Order of Appearance, Fights, Magic, Spells and Abilities Used, and then Navigation.

9. Episodes must have a one line summary. Which is essentially a two to three sentence recap of the entire episode that goes in the introduction. See Episode 1 for details.

Characters In Order of Appearance
To list characters, use the wikitext #Character Name

For example...
 * 1) Natsu Dragneel
 * 2) Lucy Heartfilia
 * 3) Mirajane
 * etc.

Fights
Each episode should have a "Fights" section between "Characters in order of appearance" and "Powers and Techniques used."

Fights should be listed chronologically (in the order that they happened or began in that particular episode) and organized using bullets by typing an asterisk ( * ) before the name of the fight. They should be set to default size, not bold or italicized, and should be linked to the appropriate fight page. When a fight concludes, add "(concluded)" to that particular episode to indicate that the fight ends in that episode. If there are no fights in an episode, put "None" in the Fights section. If a fight begins and ends in the same episode simply put that it (started and concluded) however if it simply started in that episode then (started) is not listed.

For example, a proper listing for Episode 25 would look like:
 * Elfman vs. Sol (concluded)
 * Gray Fullbuster vs. Juvia Lockser (started and concluded)
 * Natsu Dragneel vs. Aria

What is a fight and what's not?
 * 1) A "fight" will be considered to be the time from the initiation to the end of physical combat between at least 2 opponents in present time. They must be considered serious contests. Training sessions, petty brawls, and flashbacks to previous fights will not be listed as fights.
 * 2) If opponents physically engage in combat during an episode, it should be listed in the section as a fight.

Special circumstances
 * 1) If opponents physically engage each other (i.e. clash swords) moments before an episode ends, add the appropriate fight to the list. If opponents are talking or moving to engage without making contact and the episode ends just before they clash, do not add it to the fights list.
 * 2) If a fight (or the conclusion of a fight) carries on to the next episode, list it on the next episode summary as well, and so on until the fight ends.
 * 3) If a fight concludes but a winner/loser or draw is not clearly established or is uncertain, continue the fight into the next episode summary and add "(concluded)" after the name of the fight.

Magic, Spells and Abilities Used - Example
To aid you in writing the powers & techniques section, here is an example of what it should look like. If there are no powers or techniques used, just write "None" under the heading. A couple of points that need clarifying:

The Powers and Techniques used sections should follow the example below, like the character pages follow the Layout Guide:

Magic used:
 * (Summoned the Water Bearer, Aquarius)
 * (Summoned the Water Bearer, Aquarius)
 * (Summoned the Water Bearer, Aquarius)

Spells used:

Techniques used:
 * Hand to Hand Combat
 * Swordsmanship

Armors used:

Weapons used:
