For example, this tag would apply if a summary of {{sbpg|North American Beaver|Anime}}'s plot role in the anime left out her appearance in [[Episode 12 - Amusement Park]], but not if it left out a small detail such as a scene where she idly gnaws on wood for a brief moment.

===== Needs Editing ===== | |||
This tag is marked with the Library's mascot, Kyushu Owl, and currently has {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Editing}} page(s). This tag is used for pages which are complete in terms of information, but are lacking in the way of presentation or readability. In some cases, the tag may even be used to signal that a page requires a complete rewrite from the ground up - though in most cases, this is reserved for Priority Articles. | |||
Needs Editing should not be applied to small-scale edits such as single sentences, spelling errors, or broken links. All of these things can be fixed with the same amount of effort as tagging the page. | |||
===== Needs Japanese ===== | |||
Marked with [[Yamata No Orochi]] and currently tagged on {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Japanese}} page(s), this tag is a specialty tag that very rarely comes into effect. In cases where a translation is available but the article would be improved or completed by the inclusion of the original Japanese text, this tag is used to allow those with access to the original text know that their contribution is required. Editors should refrain from attempting to fix articles tagged with this unless they have the text on hand and it has been verified that the text is correct. This tag may also come into play if information such as a stage play actor's name is absent, or if an article is supposed to have a translation, but the Japanese text is not present to translate. | |||
===== Needs RL Info ===== | |||
A tag represented by [[Peach Panther]] with {{PAGESINCAT:Needs RL Info}} page(s) currently marked. Similarly to Needs Appearances, this tag only applies to Friend pages. | |||
Please refer to [[Japari Library:Getting Started|Getting Started]] for a guide on how to write these sections. | |||
===== Needs Translation ===== | |||
This tag, represented with [[Skyfish]] and currently containing {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Translation}} page(s), is a specialized tag that should only be tackled by editors with knowledge in Japanese to English translation. Usually, these pages already contain the original Japanese text, and require translation work in order to make the text understandable to our English-speaking readers. | |||
If the Japanese text is absent in an article that requires a translation, the Needs Japanese tag should be used instead. | |||
===== Priority Articles ===== | |||
Priority Articles, represented with [[Serval]] and currently containing {{PAGESINCAT:Priority Articles}} page(s), are the most important things on the entire wiki at that point in time. Priority Articles may require a full rewrite from the ground up - the text may be wildly out of date, incorrect, or even nonexistent. This tag is usually also applied to pages that are works in progress or pages that require major changes to structure. The last potential cause for a Priority Article is recency - if an important news piece broke out (i.e. Anime Season 2 trailer) then a massive influx of readers would cause an article (i.e. Kemono Friends (2017 Anime)) to be designated Priority until the article is deemed to be in need of no further editing. | |||
Veteran editors should attempt to check Priority Articles every so often when they visit the maintenance report. | |||
==File Tags== | |||
===== Pages with broken file links ===== | |||
This tag, represented by a mysterious person, currently contains {{PAGESINCAT:Pages with broken file links}} page(s). This tag is automatically applied by the wiki, and it usually exists because the article lacks an image in the first place or because an editor did not notice the image used was not valid. Typically, all this requires is an image upload or a fix to the file name. In other cases, audio or video file names may be invalid. | |||
===== Needs Audio ===== | |||
Marked with [[Crested Ibis]] and currently hosting {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Audio}} page(s), this tag generally means that the page is supposed to have an audio file somewhere. If it already has one, then it means something about the audio file needs to placed onto the textual portion of the page. | |||
===== Needs Higher Quality Image ===== | |||
Represented by [[Thylacine]] and hosting {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Higher Quality Image}} page(s), this tag refers to images which exist, but are in a low quality and need replaced as soon as a higher quality version is available. Oftentimes, this tag is entirely reliant on whether or not such a source exists, and an article tagged with Needs Higher Quality Image may need to be tagged as such for an extended period of time until this becomes available. | |||
===== Needs Larger Image ===== | |||
This tag, represented by [[Blue Whale]], currently hosts {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Larger Image}} page(s). Articles with this tag often have images that otherwise meet our standards, but may be too small for readers to see properly. The image should be replaced as soon as a larger one becomes available. | |||
===== Needs New Image Crop ===== | |||
This tag, represented by [[Bergman's Bear]] and hosting {{PAGESINCAT:Needs New Image Crop}} page(s) is used when the crop of an image is unsatisfactory. This can mean a variety of things - a part of the image's subject could be cut off, or the crop is too large and has too much content unrelated to the subject. An image editor should be used to provide the new crop, and, if applicable, it must not remove the transparency in the image. | |||
===== Needs RL Pic ===== | |||
An extension of Needs RL Info represented by [[Tsuchinoko]] and hosting {{PAGESINCAT:Needs RL Pic}} page(s). The tag indicates that the Real Life section of a Friend page lacks a picture. | |||
Only use this tag if the Needs RL Info tag is missing and the Real Life section is complete. Additionally, avoid grabbing any picture from Google, and ensure that it is licensed properly. To find out how to ensure an image is properly licensed for use on the Library, visit our Discord and ask our Librarians in #japari-wiki. | |||
===== Needs Transparent Image ===== | |||
Represented by [[Panther Chameleon]], this tag currently has {{PAGESINCAT:Needs Transparent Image}} page(s). This tag means exactly what it says on the tin, and requires editors to use image editing software to create a transparent version of the existing image, or provide an on-hand transparent image if one exists. | |||

Welcome to the Maintenance Report of Japari Library! This page contains a directory to all of our maintenance categories (hereby referred to as tags), along with a list of how many pages have had the tag applied to them. It also includes guides on what exactly each tag means, and what steps you can take to help improve the Library using the report.
This report should not be used as a style guide or as a starting point for first-time editing. For those, please reference our Getting Started page, which will tell you all you need to know concerning the layout of the wiki and how to begin working as an editor. Additionally, the report has no information regarding pages that need to be created, as categories can only be applied to existing pages. Lastly, the report only knows what it's been told - so if nothing seems to fit you, don't worry! Adding any of our maintenance tags to pages you feel need them will automatically add them into the report; allowing someone who can make this change to do so. It's a necessary and important step in the process, and with the Library currently boasting 1700+ pages, it becomes more and more important for our editors to properly tag things that need a touch-up.
For information regarding templates, technical improvements, or major changes to the wiki's structure, please join our Discord server and present your thoughts in the #japari-wiki channel. The maintenance report mainly serves to improve articles that do not fall under a special namespace, the pages that the majority of our casual users will be browsing. As such, the back end is not considered in the report.
For all tags, the application of a tag is up to the user's judgement. If one feels that the tag does not actually apply, they may remove it. If possible, in such cases, attempt to see if the original tag applicant can be contacted to explain why the tag was applied. Tags may be applied at any level, from minor (paragraph or less) to major (total rewrite) edits, but those who add tags should attempt to see if the edit is within their capability before applying them. If a tag is applied to signal for a minor edit, please use the edit summary to describe the issue to help our editors quickly identify the problem.
Writing Tags
Missing Content
This tag, marked with Uchikoma, currently has 1,159 page(s). Pages tagged as having missing content are often incomplete in some form. While many examples include missing sections such as the lack of a plot role or personality section on an anime subpage, missing content can also apply to summaries that feel like they fail to summarize an event or character properly. For example, this tag would apply if a summary of North American Beaver's plot role in the anime left out her appearance in Episode 12 - Amusement Park, but not if it left out a small detail such as a scene where she idly gnaws on wood for a brief moment. However, by the same vein, if one were to leave out that Asian Small-Clawed Otter is met on a slide, that would qualify as missing content. It is up to the editor to determine if content is missing.
This tag and Needs Editing can be used together, but only if the missing content and the reason for the Needs Editing tag are separate.
This tag should not be used in conjunction with any tag that covers the topic more effectively (i.e. use Needs RL Info rather than Missing Content, and do not use both). The only exception is
Needs Appearance
This tag, marked with Tarpan, currently has 109 page(s). While the tag mainly applies to Friend pages such as Kyushu Owl, it can be used anywhere that a physical description of something is required - for example, Mirai. Examples of such things are rare, however.
Please refer to Getting Started for a guide on how to write these sections.
Needs Editing
This tag is marked with the Library's mascot, Kyushu Owl, and currently has 84 page(s). This tag is used for pages which are complete in terms of information, but are lacking in the way of presentation or readability. In some cases, the tag may even be used to signal that a page requires a complete rewrite from the ground up - though in most cases, this is reserved for Priority Articles.
Needs Editing should not be applied to small-scale edits such as single sentences, spelling errors, or broken links. All of these things can be fixed with the same amount of effort as tagging the page.
Needs Japanese
Marked with Yamata No Orochi and currently tagged on 266 page(s), this tag is a specialty tag that very rarely comes into effect. In cases where a translation is available but the article would be improved or completed by the inclusion of the original Japanese text, this tag is used to allow those with access to the original text know that their contribution is required. Editors should refrain from attempting to fix articles tagged with this unless they have the text on hand and it has been verified that the text is correct. This tag may also come into play if information such as a stage play actor's name is absent, or if an article is supposed to have a translation, but the Japanese text is not present to translate.

Needs Translation
This tag, represented with Skyfish and currently containing 2,031 page(s), is a specialized tag that should only be tackled by editors with knowledge in Japanese to English translation. Usually, these pages already contain the original Japanese text, and require translation work in order to make the text understandable to our English-speaking readers.
If the Japanese text is absent in an article that requires a translation, the Needs Japanese tag should be used instead.
Priority Articles
Priority Articles, represented with Serval and currently containing 30 page(s), are the most important things on the entire wiki at that point in time. Priority Articles may require a full rewrite from the ground up - the text may be wildly out of date, incorrect, or even nonexistent.

Veteran editors should attempt to check Priority Articles every so often when they visit the maintenance report.
File Tags
Pages with broken file links
