Aight, flashy title out of the way? Good.
It has come to my attention recently that our OP pages have a very serious formatting error that's been lurking underneath people's noses. This is likely a consequence of the change being implemented a relatively short while ago, but nonetheless it's something to be adressed.
Simply put, the verse has problems with the Discussions template. I noticed this when taking a short look at Marco's page.
To keep it short, the Discussions template works just fine if you simply type in at the bottom of the page {{Discussions}} and leave it at that. Problem is, when the title involves special characters like ( ) or even ' you start to run into problems. You have to check the URL of the tag that you click on and then add it into the template on the profile as it is, along with the name of the page, to get it to work properly.
For example, Ka'bandha becomes {{Discussions|Ka27bandha|Ka'bandha}}. This affects OP pages because a vast chunk of them have "(One Piece)" next to the character name in the title. Thankfully this problem is rather easily solved, since ( ) don't create weird ass numbers like ' do. For example, all I had to do to fix Marco's page was change {{Discussions}} to {{Discussions|Marco One Piece|Marco (One Piece)}}.
However, that's not where the problem ends. Some of our profiles straight up don't have any Discussions templates implemented, thereby nullifying links to the forum altogether. At the time of writing this both of Sanji's pages don't have it.
Now I have not looked at the verse as a whole, but I'm fairly certain that if the Straw Hats themselves, which are the profiles which receive the greatest amount of attention, are getting overlooked in this department, then chances ain't great the rest of the verse is doing so hot.
So I propose we begin immediate remedying of this problem by implementing the Discussions template properly, as I've demonstrated.
