I've found several bugs in the systems for adding Characters to games. These are as follows:
1. When you add a character to a game via the Add Character link on the game's page, you only have the option of adding a new character to the database rather than adding an appearance of an existing character. It might be nice to replace this with a search box with the option of adding a new character to the database.
2. Likewise, there is no clear way of adding an appearance of a character to the character's page, as the "Linked items" section has no apparent edit controls.
3. The character Ryu is listed as appearing in Street Fighter 4 but he does not appear in that game's character listing.
4. The character Ryu has an empty Category field in the database. Attempting to correct this to add a category presents a "Search for a category" box which never finds anything, no matter what is typed.
1. Yeah, sorry about that.
2. You have to add character versions to start linking to games. For example, see Mario. These individual versions can be added and then ammended (by "View"ing a particular version, you can submit a correction for the version to add a new game)
3. Unfortunately, this is a side effect of a change in the way characters were implemented in the Beta period. Adding a version to Ryu that links to the Street Fighter games will fix this problem.
4. The Category field there will be auto-populated as the various character-versions are added
