Project χ (Key)
New project, designed to deal with the Kingdom Hearts χ-related sections and pages.
Kingdom Hearts χ
Writing this page up to appropriately match other game pages. That includes rewriting the Story section, the Development section, and the Worlds and Characters sections. Any additional information present in other game pages should be written for Kingdom Hearts χ.
Worlds
Writing up story sections for each world, describing the story of each world in the game. This should be listed under "Other Appearances", since the worlds' stories are still not considered canon, especially that of any Disney worlds. The only world with considerably-canon content is Daybreak Town, and even that is subject to doubt (Mickey, Donald, Goofy and the others being there doesn't seem canon).
Characters
Same thing as worlds, story sections under "Other Appearances" must be written. The non-canon tag should be added to all these sections, so that we still document the stories and don't risk claiming speculation or false canon content (that's what the non-canon tag is for, right?)
Events
This is writing up coverage of the events in Kingdom Hearts χ. We attempted this before, but I get the feeling we can do this right if we try to find a way to cover the events. Perhaps not all the specifics are needed, since those events as they were introduced are kind of a one-time thing.
Cards
Perhaps upload all the cards seen and introduced in Kingdom Hearts χ, so that we also have those in the Mainspace. We could have a Cards (KHχ) page, where we explain how cards work in the game and then have a gallery for all the cards or something of the like. We could also add the cards to the galleries of the characters that appear in them.
Links and Information
Thanks to ShardofTruth, we have these links to information and videos. We can definitely use these to our advantage, especially those of us who can't read Japanese.
From Talk:Kingdom Hearts χ:
- KH13 is cooperating with Everglow8444 on a fully translated walkthrough of the game, check out part 1 to 11 here.
- Sign and Goldpanner at KHInsider are still working on a full translation of all missions, it's a bit out-of-date at the moment though. You can find it here, it also includes all events in which Everglow didn't participate in. A translation of the 1st Anniversary event (with Mickey, Goofy, Donald etc.) by Kazr10 can be found here.
- Here is a 7zip archive of every mission screen and (almost) every dialogue in the game (all Japanese though), a list of the currently available animated scenes can be found here.
Project: Category
New Project, to be started at a later date. It's one-half of a major purge of Special:WantedPages, which lists many categories that don't exist. This project is designed to take the categories from that list and either create them, or remove the links that call for them.
Renaming
Several categories that are wanted are duplicates or are incorrectly named. For example, listed in the Wanted Pages are categories related to Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance; however, many of them exist already incorrectly named. Below, I will list the categories that need to be renamed, which means we need to go to all the pages that list those categories and name them correctly.
Inappropriate Capitalization
- Main Project: Forum:Inappropriate Capitalization
Any categories in Special:WantedPages that doesn't conform to the policy laid out in the main forum need to have their links replaced with the correct category. In addition, categories that do conform to the policy need to be created, and the old category dealt with as stated in the main project forum.
Project: Userspace
New Project, to be started at a later date. It's the next half of a major purge to Special:WantedPages, which lists several user items that do not exist. This project is designed to determine which user items can or need to be created, and which ones need to have the links removed.
Userboxes
Arguably, links to non-existing userboxes make up the largest part of Special:WantedPages. What we need to do is determine which userboxes we can create/re-create. For the rest, we'd have to go in and remove the links, maybe notify the users who use them. I personally think the official-related userboxes (worlds, merchandise, etc.) should stay/be re-created. Everything else ought to be removed.
Userpages
Several userpages no longer exist, but are still linked. This part deals with removing links to userpages (Sandboxes, user templates, etc.).
Disney Wiki Template
For potential use on the Disney Wiki.

Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ, later renamed as Kingdom Hearts Union χ[Cross], is the ninth installment of the Kingdom Hearts series, released exclusively to the iOS and Android smartphone platforms. It is a sequel to the Japan-exclusive web browser game Kingdom Hearts χ, and features plot and gameplay elements from that title. It is free to play but contains in-app purchases. It is the first Kingdom Hearts game to be released on smartphone platforms.
Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ was first announced on May 12, 2015.[4] During Square Enix's E3 Conference on June 16, 2015, a trailer for the game was released showcasing gameplay. Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ was released in Japan on September 3, 2015 and in North America on April 7, 2016.
In April 2017, the game was updated and rebranded as Kingdom Hearts Union χ[Cross], introducing multiplayer gameplay and a theater mode.[5]
Development
While there were rumors of a localization for the web-browser based Kingdom Hearts χ, the smartphone game wasn't publicly referenced until April 14, 2015, in an interview with Tetsuya Nomura.[6] The game was officially revealed on May 12, 2015, with the official title revealed in Famitsu magazine the following day.
Story
After being saved by Ephemer and Skuld following the conclusion of the Keyblade War, Player is brought to another realm, where the Dandelions have assembled as per Ava's instructions. Upon entering this new realm, however, everyone loses all their memories of their previous world, with the exception of the five wielders chosen to become the new Union leaders.
Following Ava's orders, Ephemer ventures to the Keyblade Graveyard as one of the new Union Leaders. Soon, Ephemer is joined by Skuld, the second of the new Union Leaders, much to his surprise. When Skuld questions the whereabouts of other three Union Leaders, Ephemer admitted that, before Skuld showed up, he had his doubts about becoming a Union leader. Ventus, the third Union Leader, arrives and Ephemer and Skuld welcome him. While waiting for the fourth Union leader to appear, Ephemer and Skuld bond with Ventus, who is bewildered as to why he was chosen to become one of the new Union leaders. He admits that he is a little jealous of Ephemer and Skuld's friendship, though they assure him that they consider him a friend as well. Amused by the concept of friends, the fourth Union Leader appears and introduces himself as Brain. When Ephemer confirms that Brain is not the last to arrive as he had anticipated, Brain asks if Ephemer is meant to be their leader. Ephemer denies this, feeling as though they should wait until all of them are together to decide who leads. Brain then asks if the rules Ava provided are meant to be absolute, as he has issue with the concept of lying to the Dandelions, something which Ventus relates to. Thinking about the pain that Player had endured because of the Keyblade War, Ephemer firmly states that they are to follow the rules and that the truth about the previous world must remain a secret so that no one has to remember the tragedy of the Keyblade War. Brain, Ven, and Skuld all accept this, stating that they all believe in Ephemer. Together, the four new Union Leaders await the arrival of their final comrade.
Player resumes his missions, initially reliving through the events leading up to the Keyblade War, and later making use of the newly created Union Cross, joining a party of fellow Dandelions and traveling to new worlds. Soon, Player has a nightmare in which he sees himself collapsed after the events of the Keyblade War. Furthermore, they relive their battle with Aced from just before the fated battle. Upon their defeat at Aced's hand, Player is jolted awake and Chirithy, concerned of the frequency of Player's nightmares, advises them to rest. As Player accepts this and warily returns to sleep, Chirithy bids them goodnight and continues to watch over them.
Prior to the Keyblade War, Strelitzia, another member of the Dandelions, takes note of Player as he waits for Ephemer in the Fountain Square, taking a keen interest in them. After witnessing Player's battle with Aced, Strelitzia is approached by Ava and asked to be one of the new Union leaders following the events of the Keyblade War. Concerned about those who will be left behind during the Keyblade War, Strelitzia remembers that Player is not a Dandelion, and insists that she has to warn Player of the danger that is to come. The next day, while searching for Player in an abandoned house, the two of them are attacked by an unseen assailant, who steals Strelitzia's rule book before leaving. Streltzia holds her Chirithy in her arms, sad that she did not get the chance to see Player, before both she and her Chirithy fade away.
Ephemer, Skuld, Ventus, and Brain grow concerned when the fifth Union leader does not show up and begin searching the Keyblade Graveyard. Soon, Lauriam approaches, apologizing for being so late, as he had been searching for something.
Together at last, the five enter the Foreteller's Chamber in Daybreak Town, where Brain looks through a copy of the Book of Prophecies that he finds. Ultimately, they decide to keep the Unions united under a Union Cross for the time being, while also keeping the absence of the Foretellers a secret. Brain then decides that in order to celebrate, they should make creating new Spirits their first task, sending Ephemer, Skuld, and Ventus to collect the supplies while he and Lauriam prepare to synthesize the materials.
Gameplay
The game is largely a remake of Kingdom Hearts χ, with significant changes to the gameplay to adjust for the change in platform from PC to mobile phone. Cards have been replaced with Medals.[7] These medals are the main basis of attacking and engaging in battles in the game. Each of the approximately thousand medals have different abilities and special attacks that can be used against enemies, and only five medals can be equipped at a time to the Keyblade. By swiping across or tapping on the screen, the player can attack using one of the medals. The medal's special attack is unleashed by swiping up from the lower-left corner of the screen where the medals are. Medals are ranked by rarity, and generally, the rarer the medal, the stronger the medal is.
The story is played out in parts called quests, with each quest having a target enemy to defeat in order to move forward. As the game progresses, additional quests, such as special event quests, material quests, and Coliseum and Union Cross quests, become available to play. Each quest costs as set amount of action points (AP) in order to begin, which takes time to recharge. As one plays the various quests and defeats the Heartless, these drop Lux, which adds to one's total EXP.
Changes from Kingdom Hearts χ
- Cards have been replaced with Medals.[7]
- Players are able to switch genders and Unions at any time.[8]
- Overworlds have been replaced with the Quest system.
- Action Points have been overhauled; they now function as a stamina system that enable the player to enter Quests and start Raids.
- BP has been removed.
- Lux and EXP have been consolidated.
- New Keyblades have been added:
Changes to Kingdom Hearts Union χ [Cross]
On March 23, 2017, the game received an update and was rebranded as Kingdom Hearts Union χ[Cross]. The story of picks up right after the final missions of Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ, and serves as a sort of part two to the game. While the gameplay and format remain largely the same, there were significant changes introduced in the update:
- A new logo and artwork.
- The game retains the gameplay found in Unchained χ,[9] and all in-game data will be carried over.[10]
- A multiplayer mode, called Union Cross, is introduced. Players can team up with up to five members of their Party and/or Union and tackle special Quests together.[11]
- Theater Mode has been added, allowing players to view all story cutscenes they've experienced at any time.

When our testing team in America had Smartphone users play it, if they saw cards as they appeared in [KHX], they tended to think of it as the so called "card games". Although after having they play it for a while we had good reactions, the first impression of the game wasn't good. Since the first impression of a game is very important, we tried something other than cards."

FOR KHWIKI:USER ACCOUNT POLICY
Your user account is a special privilege. On the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, everyone is open to have an account and contribute to the ever-growing encyclopedia on the Kingdom Hearts series. This User Account Policy is designed to describe the basic rules on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, as well as the general consequences for disregarding them, and is a starting point for the wiki's policies and rules.
Expectations
Rule Number 1
There is one rule that is most important on the wiki, and the main expectation from which all others derive: Respect. We expect respect from you in this community. You can expect respect from this community. Respect is fundamental to the entire project here; without it, we cannot accomplish anything.
As you contribute to the wiki and meet people, there will certainly be times when you will disagree with a policy here, a decision there, or a person's ideas for an article. Above all else in those inevitable confrontations, you must demonstrate respect towards those you disagree with. We each must agree where we can, compromise where we can't, and work together to build the most professional and complete Kingdom Hearts encyclopedia.
Content
If you contribute to the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, you may add only official information on the Kingdom Hearts series. This means that if it's in the games, published in a manual, or mentioned in an interview, it's official and permitted on the wiki. Do not add anything that is purely speculation or a personal opinion.
Do not add content that is offensive or derogatory on the basis of sex, race, religious beliefs, age, nationality, or sexual orientation. Do not add content that is pornographic in nature, graphically violent, or otherwise is uncomfortable to readers.
Media
Images and audio tracks may be uploaded to the wiki, in accordance with the wiki's Media Policy. Images must be official and in a .png format. Audio tracks should be no more than 30 seconds and be in a .ogg format. Only officially released media may be uploaded to the wiki.
Do not upload fan art, including your own. This includes images that have been edited from their original form to highlight certain objects or characters in the image (exceptions exist in a case-by-case basis; please consult the Media Policy or a member of the staff). Do not upload videos.
Plagiarism and References
Plagiarism is prohibited on the wiki. You may not add information to the wiki that has been taken from another website, including other wikis like Wikipedia, without including an appropriate attribution to the source, preferably in the Edit Summary.
The wiki's content may be copied in accordance with the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-SA 3.0) License. Please remember to attribute the wiki when reusing content. Many users have made great efforts on the wiki to build each article, which can be seen on each article's history logs.
Spam
Spam is strictly prohibited on the wiki. Spam is defined as large amounts of content with the purpose of selling a product, or adding content mostly featuring links for people to click on, often leading to sites that download malware or feature obnoxious ads. Linking to your other sites is okay; linking to pages that cause damage, financial or otherwise, is not. Users who add spam, whether to articles or to their own userpage, will be banned immediately.
Forums
The wiki has several forums, found at Forum:Index. Please keep the content of the forums appropriate for each forum board. As with articles and your userpage, do not post content that is offensive, pornographic, or graphically violent.
Forums are archived after they are inactive for a set period of time. At this point, they are archived for referencing purposes. Do not post on an archived forum unless the information you post is somehow relevant to the archived forum's topic, there is new information related to the topic, and it is urgent or necessary to recall the previous discussion in order to add your information. For the most part, you can create a new forum.
Staff
You are expected to show respect to those elected as members of the wiki's staff. They each have every intention, as ever user does, to improve the wiki, and they lead the community in accomplishing its goals. A member of the staff does not have authoritarian say in what goes on with the wiki; the community as a whole often discusses and votes on rules and formats on the wiki.
If you feel a member of the Kingdom Hearts Wiki staff has violated site rules or is unilaterally imposing their will, you may express your feelings in the Heartless Manufactory forums, or to another member of the wiki's staff or another experienced user. Action should be taken according to staff disciplinary guidelines found in the Staff Policy. Do not engage in attacking the staff member (See Personal Attacks).
Personal Attacks
Personal attacks, defined as any statement meant to offend another user or users, to harm their reputation, or to diminish their efforts or contributions to the wiki, are strictly prohibited. They will be dealt with the affected parties and the offending user(s), with another administrator mediating as follows:
- The affected user should notify an administrator. Do not retaliate with attacks of your own. Their offense doesn’t justify yours.
- An administrator will warn each offending user, placing the {{WarningPA}} template on their talk page.
- Both the offending user and the affected parties must resolve their differences, according to the decision of the administrator involved. This may include reporting to the Heartless Manufactory forums and working together on a specific topic or assignment.
- Repeated offenders will be dealt with according to the General Discipline guidelines.
Discipline
General Discipline
The primary purpose of disciplinary action is:
- Protect the wiki, its content, and its users;
- Help the disciplined person improve and contribute effectively.
To that end, the following guidelines are in place for dealing with those who refuse to contribute to the wiki according to the expectations outlined. The wiki generally practices a Three-Strikes policy: a user may make the same offense three times before being blocked or banned, as the case may be. Note that the guidelines are followed on a case-by-case basis, and some incidents may not require multiple warnings.
- An initial warning is placed by an administrator on the offending user’s talk page using {{Warning}}. The user is given the opportunity to explain their behavior and commit to change. This template should be placed only by an administrator, or by a user who has been authorized by an administrator.
- A second warning may be placed using {{Warning2}}. This should be done if the user ignores the initial warning and persists in an inappropriate behavior or escalates such behavior. Only administrators are authorized to place this warning.
- A final warning is placed by an administrator using {{Warning3}} when behavior continues to escalate and a block is imminent.
After a third warning, a user who continues in unacceptable behavior can be blocked or banned by an administrator. The action taken should be in relation to the offenses:
- A block, which is a temporary restriction of editing on the wiki, should be levied for first-time offenders who may need time to cool down after a disagreement. Blocks can vary in time, but shouldn’t be more than a few months at a time. An administrator may block a user and place the {{Block}} template on their talk page.
- A ban, also referred to as a perma-ban, is a permanent restriction from editing the wiki. Bans should be placed on continuing offenders, those who have already been blocked, or those who have engaged in malicious behavior with no intention to change or improve. Bans are rarely, if ever, revoked. Administrators may ban a user and place the {{Ban}} template on their talk page.
