A few things:

- Gun image size. I've been starting at 300px and moving up from there. I'm not going to go crazy about it like Mr. Wolf, but I usually do 300px for pistols, 350px for SMG and short long guns, 400 px for rifles. That's just me though.

- Images on actor pages. 400px or 500px? Does it depend on the aspect ratio?

- Asian names, surname first (Asian style) or as specified in IMDb (western style)? Right now, I've been creating page name per IMDb, then creating an Asian style redirect.
400px is probably the best size for an actor page. Any larger and it tends to affect the tables. As for the Asian names, I do them Asian-style first and then create a redirect for western style.
