Due to a recent uptick in cases of Vandalism, I am here to remind the following:

Any form of vandalism including but not limited to the insertion of gibberish, random text, slurs (reclaimed or not), shipping content or headcanons (including changing pronouns or gender) will be met with an infinite ban with no chance of appeal.

Thank you for understanding.

I am nice, but hi......

Hiya! Last year it was announced, and it is finally released to all logged in Users!

Post History is now live!

What is post history, you may ask? It is a new tool, in which if you see that a post has the "edited" tag on it, you can click the three vertical dots on the side of the post and see previous versions! This is to help with transparency, and to take a defensive stance to protect all users from any trickery that some may try to cause by editing their post. :)

This works for Discussions Posts, Message Wall Posts, and Article Comments!

If anyone would like to try it out on this post, look for the "post history" button in the three vertical dot menu and see if you can find what was changed! :D

As for the other announcement.....

Two Factor Authentication is now live, as well!

This is a new step we have taken to help y'all keep your accounts safe. It isn't automatic, though, so if you want to opt-in to it, definitely feel free to check out the blog post.

For all of you, I have linked both blog posts in the text above explaining further about it! If anyone has any questions, suggestions, or reports for glitches, definitely feel free to mention them below! Have a blessed day!

Due to the recent spike in the vandalism of Character pages, staff has decided to only allow autoconfirmed users to edit pages from now on.

Thank you for understanding.

We're launching a 2 week quality of life bug fixing project! We’re undertaking it as we work through a ton of great feedback we got about the new unified experience we unveiled at Community Connect last weekend.

This work will focus on UCP bugs, like features not quite working the way they’re intended or the way they used to on the legacy platform and other bugs that worsen the "quality of life" user experience at the wikis. You can read more about it in this blog.

Because of this, I want you to send me information about bugs you encounter at the wiki currently. It doesn't have to be anything big, these can also be smaller issues that you'd want me to report as important to you, because they affect your daily wiki experience. It can be anything you want fixed in this marathon of bug fixing.

You can report bugs in comments here or on my Message Wall, you can also directly message me via Discord, my username is Stygies VIII#0313.

Please send me:

• Especially annoying bugs that disturb your experience at wikis

• Bugs you've already reported, but were not fixed yet and I should push for them being higher priority, because they are annoying (see first point)

• Bugs you have not reported to me or Fandom support yet

If you send me a new bug, please try to include the following information:

• What exactly is broken and where? Screenshots and links are great.

• If you have steps to reproduce the bug, please include them. This way, Fandom engineers can reproduce the bug and examine it better.

• What browser are you using (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc)?

• Did you see it on mobile, desktop, or the Fandom App?

• When did it occur? Does it happen always, or at random?

• If it's about the editor, which one is it? VisualEditor? VisualEditor - source mode (also known as the 2017 editor)? Or the source editor (aka the 2010 editor) If you are unsure, you can check which editor you're using via your preferences.

Thank you!

The wiki is now linked to its Spanish, Russian, French, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Polish wiki counterparts. If you're part of any of these wikis, you may add an ILL at the pages for better switching of languages. For example, for the page of Armed Detective Agency, i've already added the ILLs, these can be seen at the upper right or at the bottom of the page.

Since the article names are different, I have to write the exact title of the pages.

Also, you can see the other BSD sites at the main page, it's on the same location. Thanks!

Hello! We won't be creating pages for new characters and change the status of them until an English translation is provided. Some may know the names based on the raws, but this is to prevent confusion for others who haven't seen it and to be able to reference the chapter with its full summary.

The only new pages that can be created once the raws are out are the chapter itself. However, this will be locked to prevent edits until an English translation is provided.

Thank you!

This is my 2nd post about this. Wiki vandalism is not tolerated here. If nothing is confirmed and english translation is not yet available, please don't change one character's status. The wiki has policies. Please read them before editing. It's exhausting to revert all changes.

We are trying to expand the wiki during our free time and yet there are users who keep vandalizing. We need to spread the right info not the wrong one. If you see some information missing or errors, spelling or grammar mistakes, feel free to edit. The admins are not the only ones who can edit. As long as the rules of the wiki are followed and the information has a credible source, it is fine.

I hope this will be the last time I will post this. Thank you and again if anyone has concerns, suggestions, feel free to leave a message on my wall.

Hi! Admin Kuroo here, the main page has been changed to improve navigation and to see the most important parts/announcements for BSD (including latest volume/chapter/upcoming releases and news/changing slider into grid browsing).

Let us know if you want to put us back the featured character and recent episode at the main page since it was originally on the left side and was removed to give space to the latest releases.

Also wiki announcements or changes will always be posted here. Cheers!

Hi! Admin Kuroo here, the wiki will use Yen Press official translations for the following:

• Ability names

• Organizations

• Events

• Location

• Objects

• Chapter Names

Basically, all official terms will be based on the official translations and not the fan translations. However, the wiki will still use the word "ability" and "ability user" instead of YP's "skill" and "skill user".

The character names will be using macrons based on the official writers' names. (For example instead of Junichirou, it would be Jun'ichirō)

Note: Until a Yen Press translation isn't out (e.g. remaining chapters), it's okay to use the unofficial names. This will just be updated later on.

Thanks!

Hi! Admin Kuroo here, please don't vandalize the wiki. It's already hard for me to moderate and edit pages on my to-do-lists. The wiki is currently undergoing massive revitalization so a little help with the wiki is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

(Note: The image above is a best example of a good manga screenshot)

When uploading a manga screenshot, please keep in mind the following details:

• The image should be from raws as they are cleaner and cleaner than the scanlated version

• The image should be high quality and the size should not be small.

• Text from the speech bubbles should be removed.

• Only use singe-panels from the manga, exceptions can be used when the scene needs the whole page to demonstrate a scene or action.

• When naming the image, always put (manga) at the end of the file name. This is to help find images if they are in manga or anime.

• Always categorize the images. (In the picture above, it should have the category: Chapter 1 images, Images of Doppo Kunikida, Images of Osamu Dazai, Images of Atsushi Nakajima

• Always license the images.

• Add it to the respective characters' gallery (Dazai, Kunikida, Atsushi) and put it under the specific story arc in the manga section.

Thank you!

Good day! Legendarkuroo here, before adding images to an article please make sure to read the Wiki Policy:

Here are some important reminders when uploading:

1. Always upload .png image files. We will be deleting .jpgs as .pngs have better quality and are more preferred in wikis.

2. Select Fair Use when licensing the image you directly get from an official source (e.g. Covers of Manga, Chapters, Volumes, Episodes, Official images (characters, pvs).

3. Upload only high-resolution images, pixilated images will be deleted.

4. Use a proper file name for the media that you will be uploading. Describe what's in the image. (e.g. Dazai using his ability.png -> good file name, 12fjaklfaso-0.jpg, Dazai1.png <- poor filenames)

Thank you!
