Arale's really weird profile

8,931
10,126
Since Arale's CRTs and VS matches have seemingly concluded, now would be a good idea to address the glaring issue with her profile.

Here's her profile. It's already obvious what the problem is, that being that instead of the scans or references being on her P&A section, it's in three completely separate tabs instead. Why is this the case? We don't do this with any other profile on the wiki, and it makes searching for things on her profile an incovenient chore, since you have to scroll all the way down to see the scans. why are they called references if they dont say from which panel it is anyways?

Can this issue be fixed?
 
For starters, I think her Dragon Ball version and Dr Slump version should be split. There's no actual proof of Dr Slump being the same continuity as Dragon Ball but most of the references are just easter eggs and what not. She doesn't even have a key for her classic Dragon Ball appearance.

This issue is already being worked on currently and we already planning on doing a ctr to fix/adjust the profile.

This would only impact Tier and Stats...

This was actually proven a long time ago in another ctr actually.
There is Arale taking part in the red ribbon saga in both DB Anime and Manga
There is Penguin Village being confirmed to reside in DB's world via interview with Toriyama
And there is the fact in DBS episode 69 both Arale and Goku recognize each other proving the events of them meeting in DB as canon to both of them and Goku acknowledges the existence of Penguin village
Plus in the Brief Return manga, numerous characters from DB make an appearance

There is more to suggest they are apart of the same continuity than to say they aren't
She doesn't even have a key for her classic Dragon Ball appearance.
A Classic Dragon ball Key for Arale would literally offer nothing
 
I don't disagree that Penguin Village nor the rest of the main Dr Slump cast are canon characters within Dragon Ball. But that doesn't mean Dr Slump and Dragon Ball are the same continuity. Such as God from Dr. Slump, he does not exist in the Dragon Ball Universe.

In the dbs episode Senbei actually pulled out the original Dr. Slump manga. To point out how Mashirito died. So they indeed are the same continuity. I can't find it on YouTube but it happens in early dbs episode 69.

Well tbf
God is a character not native to penguin village at all. He comes from some unknown region of the universe

So he of all characters would have very little to no reason to appear in DBS
