Kanzenshuu - The Wiki is a collaborative project undertaken by members of the Kanzenshuu community in order to create an accurately researched database of information covering the entire Dragon Ball franchise. Kanzenshuu is comprised of its main news and content website, The Forum, and The Wiki, all of which are overseen and maintained by the website's main staff.

Wiki Privileges

Only members of the Kanzenshuu community will have access to edit and publish pages on The Wiki. At the moment, editing and publishing privileges are limited to a select number of members.

Member Selection

Our selection process is currently being developed.

Wiki Goals

The staff have compiled the following goals and principles to help guide users in the development of The Wiki. These goals will provide the foundation for what we hope will become the most accurate and reliable database of information for the Dragon Ball franchise.

Brevity

The main goal of all writing on The Wiki is to present as much accurate information as possible within the smallest space possible. Conciseness is one of our most guiding principle. This has an immediate advantage when trying to create an information database covering such a large subject. Of course, any fan-made Wiki is going to be read primarily by those already pretty familiar with the series, but it stands to reason that pages should be organized to be as friendly to newcomers as possible.

Rather than creating a long-winded article detailing every last little thing Son Goku ever did over the course of the series, we're aiming to simply have a few paragraphs summarizing Goku's life as concisely as possible. For example, imagine if someone who had never heard of Dragon Ball had just 5 to 10 minutes to learn about Goku, and at the end of that time they'd be tested on the major facts of his life. How can we structure our page on Goku so that this hypothetical person could learn as much about the character as possible in that brief amount of time?

Professionalism

Non-Opinionated

In addition to our information being concise and accurate, it should also be factually based. Just as dictionaries and encyclopedias are used to determine facts, the same will be so with The Wiki. Opinionated and non-factual writing will not be tolerated.
