Character list classification

So, we have quite a few lists which aren't currently classified as List-class. Thus, I would like to propose that we should consider doing a list-based assessment. Using Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment as a point of reference, I'm thinking about re-classifying all non GA/FA lists as List-class, while FA lists should be list-class.

Thoughts about this? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 20:10, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good idea. I don't see any reason to adopt Military History's various list classes however - the standard List and Featured List classes at WP:Assessment seem like enough. Erinius (talk) 01:37, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I just re-classified a bunch of lists - but this project still has hundreds of lists which aren't classified as FL or List-class. You can search for them on the Wikipedia 1.0 Server and there must be some kind of automatic tool that can make changing these classifications a lot easier. Also keep in mind WP:WikiProject Lists/Assessment says apparently list articles can be stub-class too. Erinius (talk) 02:16, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

New article focusing on the MyGO!!!!! anime series

I have created a draft article on BanG Dream!'s spin-off anime focusing on one of its bands MyGO!!!!! on Draft:BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!!, as I believe the anime has grown to be distinct from its originating source material. Any inputs are appreciated. JT0219 (talk) 08:44, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say there's definitely enough to justify that series getting its own anime, especially since the sequel BanG Dream! Ave Mujica, is currently airing, and how much it ties into this series (the stories of the MyGo!!!! band are intertwined in the story of the Ave Majica band). I made some updates, as you can see, including improving the character section and adding a reception section, and making some other changes. The reception section may be too long, so feel free to trim/crop it down, if you think that's necessary. Historyday01 (talk) 15:01, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your contributions toward the draft article. I have been pondering if the creation of this would elicit the need to create a separate article for the Ave Mujica anime in the near future, even as you have mentioned both bands' stories are intertwined with one another. JT0219 (talk) 15:05, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I think there's may be enough to start a draft article, for now, for the Ave Mujica anime, with reviews of episodes 1-8 (so far) on ANN (by Farris, the same person who also reviewed MyGo!!!!), plus this article with Farris and Steve Jones describing their anticipation for the series (note, this was before the series released), an anime preview guide for the series featuring various ANN writers (Jones, Farris, and Kennedy), and various other articles on ANN here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here, and various posts on the Crunchyroll blog and this posting a Bushiroad press release, to name some I found when doing a search. Historyday01 (talk) 20:27, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Noted with the references. I've created a draft article on Draft:BanG Dream! Ave Mujica, so we can work on adding these sources wherever it is needed. I don't have a strong suit on writing reception sections, but should we wait for the anime to finish airing for a full consensus? JT0219 (talk) 22:52, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll at least start a reception section. That is something anime articles on here can tend to lack sometimes, which is too bad. It might be worth waiting until it finishes airing, I suppose. Historyday01 (talk) 15:27, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
