Thanks to the remarkable images that have been added, the Seraph of the End wiki benefits from having some of the greatest images ever on any site. Period.

They are the best size, pixels and there are many exampes. Incredibly detailed in fact where some of the especially large image galleries are like huge magnificent trees. Truly spectacular to behold of course but so large a cursory skim of the leaves can have the viewer miss important details.

The time has come to help categorise the gargantuan image galleries into their own sections to help with readability and navigation. Seeing page views, perhaps it’s better people appreciate each individual image and everything it is sharing art, story, key scene, facial expressions and so forth wise, rather than “oh wow what a lovely load of images, too long not actually going to look”. Also what is one to do if they are after specific images? Scroll through and find them? Never. Ha, at a glance areas for manga and anime images is just ridiculously handy, it comes down to us to help the everyday viewer access them.

The character pages enjoy their “Introduction” “Relationships” and “Image Gallery” tabs to divide content to help viewers with readability and for page load times. Rather than one eternally long page (of which the sheer mass of images may take a while to load on phones with them ever increasing in use) let’s further enjoy the lovely Seraph of the End tabs to do the same for the image galleries. When people check the “Image Gallery” they can see further tabs: “Manga” and “Anime” with the respective art work there. Dividing them alleviates loading time concerns, and helps with navigation. Further, people will know exactly where to find all assortments of images across mediums in one place and then for the manga and anime as well.

It’s nicer as a community effort, inviting others to get involved with image transferring is thus a sound idea. Though the points are not important - the true prize is making the wiki better; it is also a good chance to have a shot at the 250 and 500 images badges. These are extra images to have for people’s badge art galleries, which are nice cherries on the cake.

Sharing is caring so since they need to be transferred anyway, image galleries will be divided amongst contributors so multiple people may attain these lovely badges for themselves. Even better if they learn something handy here and for other wikis and of course help the site in what will be a large through fairly straightforward transition.

If a suggestion has not been sent on your wall, please post here if you would like to take part in this. Kindly refrain from transferring images unless prodded since other users will need to be on hand to ensure every last image has been successfully transported to their new homes.

The transfer procedure for Guren for example is: enter source mode, copy and paste the anime pages for Guren and place them on the new page. Once saved and it has been confirmed that every last image is present, then are the images from the original page to be deleted with a reason “transferred and secured on own page” for example so people who see a huge red – minus number are assured everything’s stable.

All gathered images from Magazine Covers, Soundtracks and so forth are excellent collected together along with the prequel novel images. Chronologically they come first and are all fine viewability wise on one page. It’s just the manga and definitely the anime images that require their own.

For now the characters with image galleries that require the “Anime” and “Manga” divisions are:


 * Yu


 * Mika


 * Shinoa

For the following, one tab of “Anime” with only anime images being transferred (currently manga images are few enough to include with light novels, covers and so on) are as follows:


 * Ferid


 * Yoichi


 * Kimizuki


 * Mitsuba


 * Shinya


 * Kureto


 * Krul


 * Crowley
