Spillover Gallery
I guess...? Sake neko 20:56, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

The main page can handle many illustrations. Look at the Ryu page for reference. Allow me to add more artworks to the main page so that this wikia will be comparable to Capcom's. We don't have a spillover sprite gallery so we don't need a hidden one for illustrations. It's useful and fun to look at them and informative when the game and artist is displayed below it. Don't ruin the fun! Wikia should be fun for readers to read! :) BurnsBogard 01:54, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Haha, that's true! Well, I'll forgive it since it's Athena. :) Sake neko 05:52, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't mind it for sprites since they're smaller than the gallery thumbnails and don't take up nearly as much space. There's also the matter the most of the time the character's appearance doesn't really change, just the art style. The reasoning that "Capcom does it!" doesn't really seem much of a reason to me really. But in this case I guess it's ok since she changes outfits every almost every appearance anyways.

There is no reason why we need to have only 8 images in the gallery. This isn't wikipedia where we need to keep things short. No one is going to look for more pictures in the discussion page. I'm going to start adding many more than 8 images to the other character galleries as well, even if they wear the same outfit. If other wikias can handle more than 8 images than this one can as well.

 * It's mostly to limit it from becoming larger than the article itself eventually. Similar to a block of text, a block of images is not that much better unless that's the purpose of the page. Such as Gallery of The King of Fighters '98 Endings. I think that's what eventually would need to happen with these character galleries if we added every game appearance.

This Ryu article doesn't look bad even though there are a lot of images. http://capcomdatabase.wikia.com/wiki/Ryu. I think it's fine if it's at the very end of the article and do you think the average reader of the SNK wikia would mind if there were a lot of illustrations? I think they'd love looking at how the characters have evolved throughout the years. I'll comply with your wishes for now though and add more images to characters that are seriously lacking in them. Just think it over. Thanks! BurnsBogard 12:26, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
