Process[]
Here at the Manga Summary Project, you pick up jobs from the Jobs section below, and write the summary for it. We do jobs by arcs, meaning that all the chapters from one arc should be on the job list at one time. If an arc is complete then the Project Master will post the new jobs. All Jobs are worth the same amount of Edels, and at the end of the month, Omega natsu2 or Alois-pyon will tally all the points and whoever has earned the most Edels will be called the Member of the Month. If you see a job that you want to take, simply put Taken By and your signature beside it. Once you are finished, place Completed By besides it, and it will be checked for completion.
When signing up for a job, please use ~~~ instead of ~~~~ so that your timestamp isn't left.
Joining the Manga Summary Project[]
If you wish to join the Project, simply bring it up on the talk page. Once a user's application is reviewed and approved, s/he will be added to the members' list. All users should be dedicated to their jobs, and must not be anonymous users. If you wish to join the project, you must create an account. You must also be an active and helpful contributor for at least a month on this wiki before being accepted. Applications posted while applications are closed will be ignored. Only the Project Master or Supervisor may open/close applications. However, members/applicants may bring up a request to open/close in the talk page provided there is a valid reason.
Excommunication from our Project[]
Any users that go two month without taking at least four jobs or more, will be excommunicated from the Manga Project. When you are excommunicated, you must take our Project'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 Project members will. Excommunications aren't permanent and if you wish to rejoin the guild, simply re-apply.
Job Guidelines[]
There are a series of different jobs that can be taken here at the Manga Summary Project. It is important that all members of the Project and all users looking to apply for the Manga Summary Project have fully read through and understand the rules and regulations for the jobs they will be undertaking. It is important that you follow these guidelines so that your work is in correlation with the Wiki's Manual of Style, Layout Guide, and the expectations of the Manga Summary Project. Listed below are the guidelines that all users will need to follow when completing jobs.
The contents of the manga pages should be set out in the following order:
1. Please keep in mind that this is a Wiki, so please do not speculate when writing a chapter summary. Just describe things as they unfold, and when in doubt, go for neutral tone and wording. 2. The chapter summary is not supposed to be a substitute for actually reading the chapter. As such, there is no need to give minute details of everything that's happening. This includes battles. There is another Project on the Wiki that handles fight pages in great detail, 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 the reader of the summary might want more information. These can be links to character pages, fights, location, Attacks, or any other page on the Rave Master Wiki. 4. In summary, only events that happen within that specific chapter should be included. 6. The summaries should be written with in-universe wording, meaning terms such as "the scene then switches" or "a flashback begins" or "the chapter begins with" shouldn't be in the articles. 7. Summaries should also be written in the present tense, meaning that a statement such as "Haru and Elie went to Punk Street and brought some flowers" should be written as "Haru and Elie go to Punk Street and buy some flowers". Please make sure that you maintain the present tense through the entirety of your summary; do not switch between tenses. 8. 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 that if a picture is on the left in a paragraph, it should be on the right in the next. Also make sure that the pictures correspond to the text they are next to. If you are writing about Haru and Musica fighting, do not place a picture of Elie in the bath next to it. 9. Chapters must have a one-line introduction. This introduction is essentially a two to three sentence recap of the entire chapter that goes at the top of the page before the summary. See Chapter 1 for details. 10. A mistake made by many editors is that they include the littlest details in their summary. This is a reiteration of guideline #2, in case you did not read it. There is no need to create a summary stating each and every action of all the characters. Only the main idea and the major events that happen need to be written, because it is a summary. 11. The average chapter contains about 3-4 paragraphs with 3-4 images. Chapters with a lot of events can reach up to 6, though non-OVA Chapters reaching up to eight or more paragraphs long are probably far too detailed. 12. A fight chapter usually has a very short summary, which contains only 2-3 paragraphs and 2-3 images. As mentioned before, the Wiki has various fight pages which give detail to the battles, and that is why the fights occurring in a chapter have their own section after the summary. For an example of a summary of a general fighting chapter, see Chapter 95. Note that as the chapter tells primarily battles only, the summary is neither that long nor that detailed. 14. It is not required for the summary of a newly-released chapter to be finished within two days of the released, though it is more convenient to users if it is completed promptly.
For example...
Please do not forget that chapters with more than 8 appearing characters (which is almost every chapter) should have these names listed in a scrollbox. A scrollbox can be added by using the code:
Fights should be listed chronologically (in the order that they happened or began in that particular chapter) 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 chapter to indicate that the fight ends in that chapter. If there are no fights in a chapter, put "None" in the Fights section. If a fight begins and ends in the same chapter simply put that it (started and concluded), however if it simply started in that chapter then (started) is not listed. For example, a proper listing for Chapter 28 would look like:
Another example, from Chapter would look like:
What is a fight and what's not?
Special circumstances
The Weapons, Attacks, Abilities and Darkbring Used Section: To aid you in writing the "Weapons, Attacks, Abilities and Darkbring Used" 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 Weapons, Attacks, Abilities and Darkbring Used used sections should follow the example below, like the character pages follow the Layout Guide: Weapons used: Attacks used:
Techniques used:
Magic used:
Darkbring used: Items used:
