Hello,

I'm checking in after last month's bug squashing notice with the conclusion of our efforts - 206 bugs were squashed. For more information see https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MisterWoodhouse/Bug_Squashing_Week_2_Roundup

I also want to draw your attention to another announcement regarding Fandom's new look. Please look at https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MisterWoodhouse/Introducing_FandomDesktop,_the_new_look_and_feel_for_desktop_users and let me know your thoughts, positive or negative.

Introducing FandomDesktop, the new look and feel for desktop usersCommunity Central

So I was just playing Dragon Quest Builders 2 and on the Angler’s Isle there is a book called “The Angler’s Almanac”.

The book is credited by Nosh, Fisherman of Rimuldar to which I think is the same person as Nosh from the first Dragon Quest Builders since the book talks about how he became the apprentice of a bodkin and learnt how to fish from him (it’s the same way you learn how to fish in DQB1) and in the final chapter Ellie tells you that Nosh became the apprentice of a bodkin on the waterfront.

I’m basically saying all this to add to the page but I’m a little scared to do it myself. Especially since I just made an account to say this.

P.S. since idk how links work; https://imgur.com/gallery/BN2Zxmx

Hi there folks!

It's been my personal goal to try and make a cohesive DQ timeline using as many games, novels, manga and other media set within the DQ universe, and some time ago I came up with this "definitive" (at the time mind you) theory.

Seirei Rubiss Densetsu, Item Monogatari, Hero Abel, Emblem of Roto and its sequel, and DQI to XI (sans IX and X) and other things were put into it, using in-game elements/lore/stories etc.

It's not perfect, there's also some personal interpretation of some elements (mostly about XI) buuuuut I'm rather happy about the result.

Hope you'll enjoy the reading of it!

(I shared this theory on the Game Theorist Reddit 3 months ago https://www.reddit.com/r/GameTheorists/comments/jz0ynm/dragon_quest_timeline_proposition/ based on what I previously wrote on some various articles for Dragon Quest-fan, a French website.)

Again, I hope you'll enjoy the read. I'd also be super interested in hearing your take on the franchise timeline. :D

PS: needless to say there are spoilers for the entirety of the saga in it :'D

Hello there!

I wanted to draw your attention to a 2 week quality of life bug fixing project we’re undertaking as we work through a ton of great feedback we got about the new unified experience we unveiled at Community Connect last weekend. This work will focus on bugs which haven’t risen to critical fix levels while the engineering teams have been heads down on the unified experience work, like features not quite working the way they’re intended or the way they used to on the legacy platform.

You can read more about it in https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MisterWoodhouse/Pausing_new_development_to_do_some_bug_smashing , but what I’m specifically reaching out about is seeing if you have any particular bugs that are really annoying but not site breaking and may not have been reported yet. We have an opportunity to get bugs like that triaged and incorporated into this project, so if that’s the case, please send me everything you can about the bug(s), including steps to reproduce them and any other relevant information.

This is your opportunity to get a quick fix to everyday annoyances while the teams are in full bug squashing mode, so let me know quickly!

Dragon Quest Tact is out today on android for those who have Early Access! Please read this whole post.

For those playing it, could you help in replacing the transliterated information (including the characters listed) on here? https://dragonquest.fandom.com/wiki/Dragon_Quest_Tact

Dragon Quest TactDragon Quest Wiki

Please add the correct names for the monster types listed too if possible!

And can we add a method to give information on monsters from the gacha games, including Tact? Please look at the example on Mystic Juliante's page

https://dragonquest.fandom.com/wiki/Mystic_Juliante#Dragon_Quest_Tact

Mystic JulianteDragon Quest Wiki

To produce consistency over gacha games, perhaps we should add some new templates for each one? And also a bestiary that can be sorted in various ways i.e. rank, species, etc.

We should take inspiration from this website and use the resources they have as they fall under fair use.

This section linked refers to Tact, however this site is full of information on the other gacha games. Let's create the best Dragon Quest wiki ever!

Page Structure

A lot of the character pages are inconsistent with one another or need simplification. In recent contributions, I've edited various character pages to fit a certain format, which can be seen in pages like Krystalinda's.

KrystalindaDragon Quest Wiki

A lot of the pages have unnecessary headings which get too small, especially when there is no need to separate main games from side games.

The structure is:

[Brief description]

> Appearance

>> Form 1 (if one form, exclude headings)

[Describe appearance]

>> Form 2 etc.

[Describe appearance]

> Personality

>> Form 1 (if one form, exclude headings)

[Describe personality]

>> Form 2 etc.

[Describe personality]

> Biography (for appearances where story is added to the character)

>> Main Games/Side Games/Other Games/etc. (if only one, do not add headers)

>>> Media appearance 1

[Synopsis]

[Full story marked with spoiler]

>>> Media appearance 2 etc.

> Statistics (if party member, etc.)

Characters Missing Artwork

There are a bunch of characters that either have no image at all, no artwork or no official artwork on the wiki. Even though some characters may unlikely have official artwork, there are a lot of cases where the most minor of characters get artwork.

Searching their Japanese names can often reveal artwork, especially if they have appeared in Dragon Quest Walk such as with Rose and Rubiss.

I've made a list of characters that satisfy the following criteria:

• No image

• No artwork

• Has artwork, but not in the official style or is obscured in some way

Missing Pages & Japanese Names

Please help in adding missing characters pages, especially for NPCs and whatnot. There are even some characters that had artwork, like the Dragon Queen from DQIII, which were previously absent from the wiki. Use this page from the largest Japanese DQ wiki as it has every single character in the series listed, sometimes even with their English names.

Some of the characters share the same Japanese name or even English name. They are separated by game of course, but sometimes it's unclear if they are the same character, like in cases with Patty and Lena.

Japanese names can be retrieved through here as well. A lot of characters are missing Japanese names and romaji. For accurate romaji translation, use this tool.

Article Adjustments

Some characters do not have their own pages, which probably should do to avoid confusion or even spoilers. Such a Dr. Agon (Zenith Dragon), Munchie (on Eight's page - even appears as a monster in MJ3P) and Oopsy & Daisy (characters should get their own individual page, unless they are a named pair like with those twins in DQIII).

Categories

I've noticed that a lot of characters are missing important categories (male, female, games, etc.) and otherwise it's very difficult to navigate to find characters.

Dragon Quest of the Stars is a very enjoyable game, but it unfortunately is a huge time sinker for completionists due to its requirements for rare limited-time equipment, particularly with its heavy need to expend a lot of time in online multiplayer. While I've been doing by myself with some help by a handful of editors, I don't wish to keep on doing it alone since there is a lot of articles that are still missing in the wiki and DQotS has been taken my full attention just to play it to collect the best equipment possible.

What we require is more contributors that can help complete the information of the time-limited events since, due to their nature, their info is very hard to come by once the event is finished. It's important to continue the coverage of the game because by its nature it covers the entirety of the Dragon Quest franchise, including other adjacent media like The Adventure of Dai (at least in Japan).

If you can help, please do so. Feel free to contact me if you'd like some advice on how to edit the info and create articles. Please, invite anyone that is already playing the game. The more contributors, the easier it gets to collect and edit the information.
