Hi, everyone! I am Crimera, your friendly Crimson monster, and if you are really concerned about this wiki, I ask you to help us.

This wiki was mostly written during the Continuum Shift era, so we have little info about Chronophantasma and XBlaze, as the wiki stoped being active. We have some info on Bloodedge Experience, thanks to a couple of currently inactive contributors. One of those contributors also added some Code: Embryo information, but as a "you-are-all-wrong" commenter pointed out, it has to be checked for mistakes.

I am currently unable to do proper edits - my PC is broken. It worked pretty badly from the beginning of this year, and now it doesn't even turn on. I try to visit the wiki at least once a day from my phone, but I can't play the games, due to bad internet connection I can't watch walkthroughs, and I don't have any novel/artbook/manga scans here, so I can't add info. And Night Vision has similar problems, so I have no choice left but to ask for help. Hope you will not make me regret it.

So, if you want to do something useful, but you just don't know where you can help, here is a list of things you can try to do:
 * Add Continuum Shift information.
 * Some of the character pages still lack information about the events of Continuum Shift.
 * Add Chronophantasma information.
 * That includes information on character pages, terminology, locations... Basically, if you can put on any page a relevant piece of info from Chronophantasma - do it. If that info is not there yet, that is.
 * Add XBlaze information.
 * Pretty much as with Chronophantasma, just make sure that you keep XBlaze info separate from BlazBlue.
 * Re-read the Code: Embryo info, and fix any mistakes you find.
 * Some random anon left a currently deleted comment about mistakes, so I guess someone has to look it up and fix them.
 * Add Remix Heart information.
 * The whole manga was translated a long time ago, you can find it on dustloop. Be careful, as the manga is fan-translated, and there are a lot of errors, like "Zazagae" and "Teruhito".
 * Add Phase information.
 * While the most of the novels are untranslated, the three volumes of Phase series are available in English somewhere on Baka-tsuki. A fan-translation, and even though this translator doesn't mistranslate names, I still recommend you to be careful.

That covers most of things we need. There are also Drama CDs, artbooks, and other stuff like that, I will deal with it once I'll have my computer replaced. Don't know when it will be, though. Maybe autumn, maybe even later. And, about adding Centralfiction information... Don't. There is a lot of speculation out there, so let's wait for the console release.

If you feel like helping out, but don't want me or anyone else having to clean up after you, here are some tips:
 * Edit in Source Mode. Your beloved VisualEditor ruins the page's code, don't use it. If you don't know how to use the Source Editor, I wrote a guide for you.
 * Don't post a link to the redirect of a page. The redirect is an empty page that automatically sends you to a proper page. Redirects are bad. Sometimes they can't be avoided, like with disambiguation pages, but when posting a link in the articles, make sure that this is the proper link. The list of the redirects can be found here. Yes, there's a hundred of them. Before I became a moderator, there was more than four hundreds of them. Redirects bad. Don't do them.
 * Don't upload misnamed files. If you want to know what is a misnamed file - look at files uploaded by Gamma Venom 567 and AzureJay (though she recently started to name files properly after I started to delete everything misnamed). You can look at some examples of proper naming on the Image Policy page, or look for properly named files that are similar in nature to those that you want to upload.
 * Don't forget about categories. Each page should be in at least one category. Don't add wrong categories.
 * Use proper grammar. If you add something that makes no sense to the reader, it will be deleted, because nobody understands what you added. Use a spellchecker, Microsoft Word, Google, everything that can improve your English.
 * Use the Preview option. Before posting an edit, preview it to make sure that everything is fine. If something is wrong, you can check the changes you made to the page, so you can fix it without saving a revision with ruined code. Don't be that untrainable contributor that all sane people want banned.
 * It's not "Chrono Phantasma", it's "Chronophantasma". It's not "Central Fiction", it's "Centralfiction". We don't know why Mori spells it this way, maybe the only reason is Engrish, but since this is how Arcs write it, we'll do the same.

If you have any problems, you can ask for help on the Forum. You can also leave a question on my Message Wall, but currently I am unable to respond immediately.

I don't know when I'll be able to make proper edits, things are pretty bad on my side, but I promise you to come back with some really curious stuff, if someone else will not beat me to it. Wish me good luck, I need it.

Also, if someone here plays BlazBlue: Revolution Reburning, I've created an Alliance for the wiki. BlueBlood, ID: 80396689.
