Earlier, we've tackled the Hall of Records' reconstruction ever since it was left abandoned (we may begin building that pretty soon, we just need a plan of order), and now we have to tackle the other part of the Community tab that has been left untouched for months: the '''Top Completed What-If? Death Battles'''.

There used to be a poll and system to display the top-voted Fanon fights in this wiki on the front page, and this was used monthly. However, times have come as the users running it have become less active if not completely left entirely, leaving it dead and to bite the dust. The plan is to revive it, of course, but I have some changes in mind:

1. Firstly, the location of where to vote has to be changed. My idea is to hold two threads monthly, one for nominating, and one for voting. Each thread would be different per month, which would leave less of a hassle in monitoring and maintaining these things. Once these threads are complete by the deadline, we can then take the winners and easily display them on the front page.

2. Nominating threads should begin on every 1st of each month. These threads would last for 20 days, and on the 21st of each month, the voting for the polls would then begin. Voting would end at the end of each month, and the results will be displayed on the very next day, the following 1st of the next month, where the new nominating poll will be open.

3. Speaking of the front page, subtle change, I think we should organize the categories via subheaders to make it more clear what category it is. I believe it would make the appearance neater overall.

4. A big change is adding or removing categories/themes that can be used for the select candidates. While it is a frantic list, this is what I suppose could be the determined list of categories that can be used. They don't all have to be used, but this is a list I think can suit each category.

Since this basically covers every fight in this wiki, there is really no need for an "Other" category that doesn't already fill in for the Mixed Media or Comic Book category that never existed. However, there is a question I can see coming if I didn't already touch it:
 * Anime/Manga
 * Video Games
 * Fighting Game
 * Comic Books
 * Literature
 * TV Show
 * Web Show
 * Mixed Media (This is to deal with any Fanon fight that deals with two different forms of media fighting, ex. "Anime/Manga VS Comic Books" themed or "Video Games VS Web Shows" themed fights.)
 * Series (Two people from the same series fighting each other, ex. Mario VS Luigi, Mewtwo VS Lucario, Frieza VS Cell, etc.)
 * Battle Royale

"How can you only put three places for Mixed Media if it's many of the previous themes condensed into just one of them?"

This means that there would only be three awards for a fight that could either be Anime/Manga VS Comic Book fight combined with two Video Games VS Web Show fights or any other mix-match combination. The resolve is pretty simple, which is raising the ranks up by two to have five places for this specific category. Why five? I don't really know, that's the maximum I believe will fit in the best. Feel free to debate in the comments if you disagree.

That's the plan. If you have any objections or additions you think would be neat, leave them below. There's no need for a poll since this is a more complex subject.
