Wikipedia:WikiProject Final Fantasy/To do/March 2006

WikiProject Final Fantasy never wants for tasks that need carrying out. Below is a checklist of past and present work. If you feel an article needs attention, please add it to the relevant section. If you feel it would benefit from a more in-depth discussion or a more concerted update effort, please list the article for Peer Review.

Articles that could be improved with images

 * Add picture rationale to fairuse and fairuse related pictures. See the Style guide for details.
 * Final Fantasy XI – Enough images have been added. ~ Hibana 21:56, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Final Fantasy X-2
 * This one should be done. I added a couple of images, more will make it too much IMHO. In any case, there are plenty of images I have just uploaded.Look at my user page gallery and pick one if you think more pictures are needed Renmiri 13:34, 7 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri

''2/2/06 - Added many, many images for both FFX2 page and FFX, FFX2 character pages. I believe adding any more images will be too much but I have them so just look at my user page for the list. Added a link to an image for each character mentioned. If you don't see a picture you need, just ask: I have both games, both official movie DVDs: Final Fantasy X DVD and Final Fantasy X-2 DVD, a fast video capture board and I'm a big fan of the work this team is doing here at Wikipedia'' Renmiri 04:19, 7 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri
 * Final Fantasy IX characters, Final Fantasy X characters and Final Fantasy Tactics characters - These all refer to categories at the moment which is maybe a bit broad. Anyone fancy looking at the articles on an individual basis? >Gamemaker 21:42, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Final Fantasy bestiary Already has images for nearly every game of the series. – DarkEvil 00:39, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Absolutely not true, most beasts from FFX and FFX2 are NOT in the bestiary (see good list of the tons of monsters you are missing just for FFX here). Overall, I found the bestiary very weak. Is it the goal to have just a list with a couple of beasts per game ? Also, the low resolution pics like "mermaid" make it look very bad. (further criticism moved to the proper area) Renmiri 13:34, 7 February 2006 (UTC)REnmiri
 * The preceding comment referred to the fact that the images already present represent nearly every game, not nearly every monster. As it happens there's an outdated comment on the Project main page stating that the Bestiary sub-project aims to cover every monster, but that no longer reflects consensus on main WPFF direction. Wikipedia isn't a game guide, and we don't have to be exhaustive. Regarding the Mermaid pic, and those like it, the image isn't poor quality, its indicative of the game that the creature appeared in; FF hasn't always looked like FFX ;) If you have concerns over the Bestiary though, do raise them on its sub-project page or in the peer review section. >Gamemaker 11:20, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey there. I am almost done with loading images. There are just a couple of FFX2 characters that are missing but the pages you mention above should not be missing pictures anymore. Renmiri 20:39, 11 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri
 * On a related note, I went through the trouble of documenting fair use for each picture I scanned, and even entering details from the sources 1, 2, 3, 4, the latter 3 owned by me and are the source of most of my images. All 4 pages are now just a redirect, but left in revision for a merge with the main game pages. In my view this is harmful for the claim of "fair use" considering that 90% of the images on the articles for Spira and FFX / FFX2 have been scanned from the books, I believe the books should be mentioned in a page of their own. It is NOT fair use to scan half of the book and refuse to give it prominence on the Enciclopedia IMHO. Seancdaug disagrees and has put them as a redirect. Both him and myself decided to leave it up to you guys. Renmiri 03:26, 12 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri


 * List of Final Fantasy locations, II, III, V and IX
 * Al Bhed - this one seems worthy enough to move here from "could be improved". Gamemaker 12:43, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
 * ''What exactly are you guys looking for in terms of images ? I added one of Rikku's eyes with the characteristic spiral shaped pupil. Anything else ? Renmiri 22:30, 3 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri
 * Thanks for that one, it suits the article well. I think that should do it for that article >Gamemaker 10:33, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

POV articles

 * Final Fantasy VIII This section seems to be a little POV/unsourced. I'll add more POV sections for other articles later. Deckiller 00:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Added references and rendered NPOV. Ryu Kaze 19:24, 17 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Final Fantasy X-2 Deckiller 04:27, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed. But it has been fixed, I think. I and another user removed some unsourced references to lesbianism from there and I added some good points about the game. Renmiri 22:07, 8 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri

Others

 * The inbound links to |Spira (redirect page) (see list of links here) should be re-pointed to Spira (Final Fantasy X)... I'm responsible for the article move and I can do some of 'em, but not being a FF expert I might create or not see mistakes in the process.Spir 09:11, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Berserker (character class) already done – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Final Fantasy IV the story seems a little lengthy; should we trim some of it? Deckiller 16:54, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Final Fantasy VI Original Sound Version already done with loads of audio samples and the same format as other Final Fantasy albums – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Final Fantasy IX characters Most don't have their article They now have – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Gullwings Has been already done and is now a redirect to Final Fantasy X-2. – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Lenne (Final Fantasy X-2) the article now exists – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Masamune (video game weapon) - possibly a separate article made? Masamune (Final Fantasy)? I don't think it deserves a specially made FF article, what about it? – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * In my opinion, as of right now, the Masamune is not significant enough to merit its own Final Fantasy article. I'll cross it out. Hibana 04:44, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Ragnarok (Final Fantasy) merge with Ragnarok (airship) ~ Hibana
 * Tetra Master — Cuahl [[Image:NotAfraid.gif|18px]] 7/7 [[Image:Black ribbon.png|10px]] — 22:20, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Ultima (spell) &mdash; merge into Final Fantasy magic already done – DarkEvil 00:48, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

Articles that could be created

 * Alexander (Final Fantasy) per Odin.
 * Bahamut (Final Fantasy) - Sufficient information in the series exists; use images from "Final Fantasy media" category; should be similar to Odin (Final Fantasy)
 * Phoenix (Final Fantasy) per Odin.
 * "Sufficient" information? Maybe. But that's not a particularly good criteria for deciding to add an article. The question is whether or not the subject matter is likely to be notable to the general public, and since no summoned monsters have ever been presented as anything more than extremely minor characters (and more often, they're not really anything more than fancy magic spells), I don't think we can justify giving more space to them than they've already been afforded at the summon magic article. I've created the articles as redirects, though. – Seancdaug 21:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Montblanc (Final Fantasy) somewhat notable FF Tactics char that could use an article. Montblanc has recently been announced to appear in FFXII.  http://www.ffxii.net/?nav=media/mag9
 * As it is now, his appearance has only been announced. When the game is actually released, he might warrant an independent article, but until then, he should really be treated as we treat all fictional characters, and should be covered in either in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance or List of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance characters. – Seancdaug 21:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Ruby Weapon I'm not sure if there is enough on this but it might be good for an article about it. There really isn't enough. I just redirected it to the main Weapons article. ~ Hibana 02:03, August 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Shiva (Final Fantasy) per Odin. I've fleshed out a page using the Odin article's example; now needs expanding. Gamemaker 14:03, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Vana'diel . Needs expanding --Vanguard 19:01, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
