The first post have been updated on who is currently working on certain pages and which pages are currently abandoned.

- All the wiki pages have been updated with profile pictures instead of the old artwork all the way from the arcade version: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Yuri_Sakazaki_%28XIII%29

- A few of the pages have been updated with manually inserted movelist replacing the old jpgs movelist that had some errors. This helps save space and fix errors the jpg moves had. Also inserted are the Atlus KOFXIII movelist videos which provide a small and brief visual explanation even though some command moves and ex moves are missing: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Kyo_Kusanagi_%28XIII%29

- It would be cool to add combo starters and enders similar to Terry's page to the combo sections to provide more explanation on why to do begin or end certain combos a certain way: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Terry_Bogard_(XIII)

- I think now we should take away the KCE/Master Class videos for more shorter tutorial based videos that are a bit more helpful.

If anyone has any feedback on the progress of the pages, please share them here.

Are you or anyone who has access to the Wiki page going to update Mature, Joe, Robert, Ralf, Clark, King, Maxima, EX-Kyo, Mai, and Andy frame data because it's either not there for the character completely or there are moves missing.

^ Forgot about that, lol. We can either do one or the other:

1.) Either just link a specific grid from the google spreadsheet which has a majority of the tables on the wiki page that has the missing data (which takes less work)

or

2.) add tables (like ones on other pages) and add data from the spreadsheet (which takes more work).

If anyone wants to do number 2, let me know and I will actually set up blank tables in the wiki for you add the data.

Sorry to bring up non-related fighting games into a KOF/SNK centered forum. But I have a suggestion for the wiki's.

I was wondering if Dreamcancel can do something similar to the Dustloop forums and their character wiki's and combine character moves/move name/move description/frame data "all in one" for KOF characters? For example: http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Sol_Badguy_%28GGAC%29

Another example: http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Yu_Narukami_%28P4Arena%29

If you look at the move description for the characters, they have:
1) a still image of the sprite to show what the moves look like with button notation/move names
2) frame data right next to it in a chart format
3) and below that, a description of the moves, its properties, and it's different versions (for specials/supers A, B, C, D, EX, etc.)

After looking at some of the kof character wiki's, I thought that this format would help make reading a whole lot easier and convenient.

For example: Claw Iori's DP is called Nueuchi. The problem though is that: Newer players and/or players not familiar with Japanese might look at the frame data chart and not know what move that name is referring to unless they scroll back up to the top of the page to look at the movelist and then back down to compare frame data again. Same situation can be applied to other vaguely named attacks.

But with this new format the movelist, move names, move description and frame data are combined into one and it would save kof players the trouble of scrolling up and down the wiki pages to compare and look up info.

Again, just a suggestion.

I'm down for that. I think a quick way to do it is to just add the numbers next to the descriptions sorta like the way I have it started here: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Kyo_Kusanagi_(XIII)#Normals

And added under the the damage values in the command, special, DM and NeoMax section. I think it's a little too late to make a table JUST like the dustloop wiki but we can add the info where its needed.

Another good idea would be to just add the motions in the frame data table to avoid players scrolling up and down the screen to remember the move name.

Would you like to assist us in making it happen?

I added the google doc punish guides for Raiden's Tackle, EX Iori rekka, and Benimaru's qcf+K to their wiki pages in the external links section.

I added some links from the wiki into the navigation box at the bottom of each character pages of the XIII wiki. Here is an example:
