VisualEditor Update
Hello everyone!
Earlier today, Fandom released a minor design update to the VisualEditor, both the Visual Mode and the Source Mode (aka 2017 editor), to help simplify it and make it more intuitive. I recommend reading this blog for detailed information, but here are the short details.
- Renamed some of the tools (e.g. "paragraph" is now "normal text")
- Shuffled some icons around (e.g. the back and forward arrow buttons are now located on the far left rather than the middle)
- Hid some less-essential tools from view to make the initial editor view less overwhelming in all its glory (the tools are still accessible in dropdown menus)
- For the 2017 source mode: we removed the options available from the menu icon (those three stacked horizontal bars) -- If…

The New Koei Tecmo Wiki Has Been Added to Indie Wiki Buddy
Just wanted to let everyone know that the new Koei Tecmo Wiki has been added to Indie Wiki Buddy. This wonderful extension helps you find independent wikis run by passionate fans or renders Fandom-owned wikis a bit more tolerable. Feel free to give it a try. Also, please visit our new wiki where new updates and articles await you.
Very Important Announcement! The Koei Tecmo Wiki Is Officially Moving!
As some of you have already noticed, Fandom has made a number of changes that do not align with the overall vision and ideals of various wiki communities including this one. The constant ads, unrelated links, and quick answers powered by AI have given us cause to question if sticking around is what's best for this wiki's future.
After much discussion between fans and other editors, we've decided to move the Koei Tecmo Wiki to this new hosting site. Everything has been transferred to ABXY, a platform that hosts a growing number of independent video game wikis. So far, other communities like the Zelda Wiki have moved over there and are currently thriving due to more freedom and less advertisement clutter.
For any long-time editor who wishes to…

MediaWiki 1.39 Update
Hello everyone!
I'm sure most of you have noticed the little site notice appearing on the wiki about the MediaWiki 1.39 update. I just wanted to give a little bit more information about it.
What's being updated? Mostly coding underneath the hood. There will be no major design changes. Consider it like replacing the battery of a car - the car will still be the same outwardly, but it just needs some updates underneath.
All Fandom wikis will be updating to MediaWiki 1.39 in the coming month. I don't have an exact timeline at this moment, but expect it to happen in mid-March or April. During the migration to 1.39, the wikis will be set in read-only mode. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes (major wikis could need more hours). One week before m…
The Definitive Guide to Unlocking Tales Stages in DW4
Hello everyone, this is General Khor. So I recently managed to download Dynasty Warriors 4, and my main reason for playing is to find out if those guides for the game are accurate. I found that for unlocking harnesses and special items, the guides are consistent and accurate, but when it comes to unlocking tales stages, each guide provides differing accounts, and I surmised that those players didn't try something called trial and error. Yes, that's how I got the results that I'm about to reveal in this blog. There are some misconceptions when it comes to some stages, so I'll also be debunking those misconceptions in this blog.

Hello, all.
I am currently planning on filling in the movesets for all of the Pirate Warriors characters, including those in different iterations.
I'd also like to adjust the categories to be accurate, especially given the DLC characters added in 4.

In the Asian ports for Warriors Orochi, all of Orochi's weapons (as well as Orochi X's weapons) are named after the eight hot realms of Buddhist purgatory, each dedicated to torment a particular soul whom have indulged too deeply with a particular sin. Throughout these realms, souls are forced to suffer or die to only be revived again to repeat their torture. Torture gets progressively worse the farther one descends. Time seems to pass at a slower rate for a human soul stuck within these hells; one day within any of these hells can equate to 500 years -or even thousands of years- in normal time.
Orochi's first weapon is named Kokujō (黒縄, lit. Black Cord), …

Koei Star Wars Game
In January 2018, the president of Koei Tecmo, Hisashi Koinuma, mentioned it in the press that he wanted to make plans on making new pseudo-crossover Dynasty Warriors with the Star Wars franchise from Lucasfilm as their next crossover focus after they managed to made success with Nioh and Fire Emblem Warriors. Koinuma choose Star Wars Warriors title for something that they wanted to bring a particular Sci-Fi universe for the Warriors franchise.

timelines in chronicles samurai warriors
i would like to adress the fact that in chronicles samurai warriors in the part 'peace at last' in 1590 you fight kai and at the end of the stage ujiyasu hojo comes to the aid of kai however first of all ujiyasu hojo died in 1571 so there is no way he could have been there second at 'incedent in honoji' ujiyasu is in in fact dead at the time which means that nobunaga's is at the hight of his power because the takeda clan was destroyed earlier that year the eusigu had internal affairs and obvousily the hojo was also weakend but the way the game portrays it ujiyasu is alive at that moment and wont die until at least 1590 and he live's longer than nobunaga oda which both arnt true

Pirate Warriors 3 English Release, Help us out!
So as many of us know, Pirate Warriors 3 was announced for Japan. And knowing Namco, they will release it english subbed only. I have a plan to get it dubbed for its english release, the first step is this petition:

Obviously petitions don't solve problems, but this is only the first step: gathering fans. So if you are a One Piece fan, or anime fan in general please sign this and spread it, it will mean a lot to others.

Updates to the Related Videos Module
Hi All!
Last year, we began experimenting with some video features on a certain set of test wikis. Our goal was to gauge our visitors' interest in watching videos. Our findings were not surprising: people love to watch on-topic videos.
The main tool we used to test this was the Related Videos module (which you can see in the right rail). It was built as a proof-of-concept feature and we knew it wasn't scalable to launch on many more wikis. We've reached the point in our Video project where we're confident enough to turn on for more wikis (release plan TBD). However, this requires some functionality changes.
- 1 How it used to work
- 2 How it works now
- 3 How it will work as of Oct 3rd
- 4 How it will work in the near future
- 5 Why are we making these changes?…

The Tigress of Jiang Dong
Faction: Wu
Weapon of Choice: Rapier
Story
Historically Lady Wu was the wife of Sun Jian and mother of Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Shang Xiang, Sun Yi, and Sun Kuang stories have it that Sun Jian was so captivated by her beauty and character that he asked for her hand in marriage but was denied by her family because they considered him a ruffian, she eventually convinces them that her fate is her own and marries Sun Jian.
In the Romance, she was split into two women, a pair of younger and older sisters that both married Sun Jian, the younger Lady Wu was known as Wu Guotai, however for the sake of this character I will be combining the two into a single character known as Wu Guotai ingame and Lady Wu informally.
For the most p…
Exaggerated Characters (Opinions)
I've been a tad curious on this subject for a bit now, I'm wanting to know if my opinions just happen to differ from most other people when it comes to Dynasty Warriors, but I've come to greatly dislike Xu Zhu's de-evolution into a dumber and hungrier individual with each game, Yuan Shao's attempt at comical hubris that gets worse with each game, and Dian Wei seems to get dumber and dumber. Is this only me? Or is the over-exaggeration of character's personalities becoming an annoyance to anyone else?
New Wikia Mandatory Skin
Before anything is said, please look here, here, here, and here. If you need the situation summed up in a nutshell: Wikia's looking to change the page layouts for every wikia with the hopes of inviting new users to actually participate. "No, Wikia, don't do it! We'll hate it!" say lots of Wikia users with years of editing. That's all fine and good; everyone has their designs they like and don't want to change them. This is not what I really want to stress here.
To put this into retrospect for Koei Wikia, would the new look really be a good change? Will it invite more people to edit if everything was just visually simplified with a sleek design? I'm curious for responses to this because I know from experience a majority of new Wikia users on…
