This is a summary of our archived standardization topics for the Bleach (manga) article, originated by tjstrf and with additional compilation from Dekimasu. Although consensus can change, please consider these points when adding information to Bleach-related articles.
  • In titling, we use Bleach (manga), not Bleach (series), Bleach (anime) or BLEACH.
  • We are using the English naming conventions for characters (given name first).
  • Quincy, Bount and Soul Society are capitalized, but we do not capitalize most other terms (hollow, plus, zanpakutō, etc.).
  • It's lieutenant, not vice-captain; the onmitsukidō is to be referred to as "special forces"; demon arts has been superseded by kidō, since all versions of the series use the Japanese term; Soul Reaper is preferred to shinigami.
  • The main characters on the page are listed in the order of their appearance.
  • Correct character spellings include Bount (pl. Bounts), Visored (pl. Visoreds), Yammy, Luppi, and Kuroud.
  • We refer to "artificial souls" rather than "modified souls" in order to incorporate all manufactured souls.

Category:Shinigami

Bleach, Death Note, and Descendants of Darkness all call their people Shinigami. I thought it would be a good idea for there to be a Category:Shinigami for those and any other titles that use the term "Shinigami" Oddly enough Descendants of Darkness wasn't reversed by Tintor2 Hackwrench (talk) 21:02, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The category Shinigami would actually fit in a characters article. In a manga/anime series, the title should "Shinigami manga/anime series".Tintor2 (talk) 22:50, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]


plot

On the "Bleach (manga)" page, I request that the plot should be expanded between the parts of Rukia's Execution and Orihime's Abduction. I request this because there is 15 Volumes and between 75 to 81 Chapters in between the two events. —Preceding unsigned comment added by U2dead (talkcontribs) 04:52, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you plan to make additions to the existing plot summary, be sure to read the guidelines here. If you want a more comprehensive summary than what Wikipedia allows, you may be interested in pages like this on the the Bleach Wikia. –Gunslinger47 09:22, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would disagree. As is, the plot summary seems to outline the events without giving too much away and spoiling the experience. For instance, it never talks about how Ichigo beat Kenpachi, which leaves this to future viewers to see for themselves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arawn V (talkcontribs) 18:06, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Review (again)

Manga vol. 30 mania.com

I think there should be a link to the cleanser bleach, because this is the first thing to come up when you google "bleach" (believe it or not) 202.89.189.114 (talk) 07:45, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But when one types "bleach" into the Search Wikipedia bar it links to the detergent. I believe that may be the reason this article does not link there. If the need is found, I suppose a link from here to there could be made. Now, I just don't see it. Spindori (talk) 19:35, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Conclusion

So Bleach appears to be nearing a conclusion very quickly (it could possibly be complete within a few weeks). Should this be noted in the weeks to come? For one the interview with Tite Kupo where he said he had yet to write an ending, is from 2008, and a lot can happen in 2 years (just look at One Piece). Just an FYI, if in anything, keep your eyes peeled in the coming weeks. 70.148.217.99 (talk) 00:38, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No source, no interview. There is no need to update the article until the plot moves on.Tintor2 (talk) 01:08, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have a source, but I've heard it mentioned a lot on the Bleach Wiki that Kubo stated that after the Arrancar arc, he would do a short arc, and then continue on to a much longer arc. A lot of speculators are pointing to the Decide chapters as the mini-arc, but either way there's supposedly a large arc still to come. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.209.43.82 (talk) 04:16, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In an interview with Tite Kubo in MASKED, he said that following the arrancar arc, there will be a short arc followed by a much longer one, the arrancar arc ended with chapter 421, see http://www.shonenjump.com/e/news/index.html.--150.212.38.96 (talk) 20:51, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see the interview in the source, but that could be added to the article with a reference.Tintor2 (talk) 23:19, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It seems I made a mistake, the interview was not from MASKED, that is a different interview I am thinking of, here is the correct interview about the short arc and long arc http://iareawesomeness.wordpress.com/2010/03/01/tite-kubo-interview-jump-festa-2009-and-other-spoilers/, I am still hunting down the shonen page that says that the arrancar arc is over but I will keep looking--150.212.38.96 (talk) 23:35, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Note that the reference has to be from WP:Reliable source and lately many Jump Festa appear to be invented by fans and only appear in forums.Tintor2 (talk) 23:38, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    No edit wars, only casual vandalism
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    1 image, proper rationale
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    Citations are an issue. As of right now, it is not qualified for GA.
Comments
  • Ref 2 is dead.
  • Ref 13 is dead.

  • Ref 54, suggested to use archive web template.
  • Ref 56, the ref does not say who played who.
  • Ref 61 dead.
  • Citations needed in anime section.

10th Anniversary?

How is episode 304 of the anime the 10th anniversary? Frank0051 (talk) 23:28, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Title

"Bleach (Manga)" is rather limiting. Maybe it should be "Bleach (franchise)" instead. -- jfry3 (talk) 21:56, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
