Forum:Removing Full Sypnosis template

I think that we should move the full synopsis template from the episode pages. They aren't really useful and they don't fit right on the page. I think that we should just remove that template and leave the text to be shown on the page. Forsburn (talk) 06:37, October 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Also, I have removed the template of episodes one and two from the 2003 series. Forsburn (talk) 06:40, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

The edits you've made to the template have been rather helpful and are appreciated. i think the idea of removing the full synopsis template has been brought up in the past and I remember being adamantly against it. I'm proud of its implementation on this site, but I think their initial purpose was to keep people from being spoiled about episode content - though, since the anime is in its third or fourth dubbed run on television, I suppose that's less of an issue. Still, some synopses are necessarily very long and detailed and I worry that just unleashing them onto episode pages might make them seem cluttered. It may be a risk worth taking, though. I can foresee a future where a short synopsis comprised of the official episode blurb is paired with a general "Full Synopsis" section. What does everyone else think? I think the synopsis template saves room and is pretty cool-looking, but is anyone else of a different mind? CorbeauKarasu (talk) 02:05, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

As I said in the past by placing the Full Synopsis somewhere else on that episode page that doesn't conflict with the episode notes is a good way of dealing with the spacing problems. -Adv193 (talk) 05:49, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

The spacing issues have been resolved with some editing to the template, though the words on the box need to be centered properly; the issue now is whether we want to keep them or if the lack of spoiler danger justifies removing them. CorbeauKarasu (talk) 22:03, October 17, 2012 (UTC)

For now at least I have restored the templates on the first two episodes of the 2003 anime series. Also if change is needed should this also be focused on the manga chapters as well for spoilers? -Adv193 (talk) 22:23, October 17, 2012 (UTC)
