While I understand your point, I’ll have to disagree.

First, the problem of lengthy character pages was sorted by the use of tabs during a discussion some time ago, greatly reducing the size of the pages that were too long. I wouldn’t call any character page now, specially the ones that have been split, too lengthy, which is one of the reasons I don’t feel the removing of techniques to be necessary. (All Might's is too long, though. I'll split it, which I should have already done. My bad.)

Second is the practicality. The way it is now, someone who accesses a character page can read all the information about a character (or in the case of the split pages, the overview) in a single page. Someone who just wants to read about a certain Quirk can head straight to the Quirk page. I’m not objected to listing the techniques in the Quirk pages, too, perharps with more detail. I think that’s a great idea, actually, and the format you did it on the Zero Gravity page, for example, looks very nice.

Third, the fact that the length problem applies to very few characters. From the top of my head, only Izuku, All Might and Katsuki have more than three named techniques, which makes the techniques in other character pages make little to no difference in the overall length of the article. Removing them to place them only in the Quirk page would create an unecessary incovenience for a reader to have to move to another page to read what usually is two to three lines of text describing a technique with a link to the technique page for more detail.

For the sake of comparison, see the Fairy Tail wiki, which is the most similar to our current format: techniques are listed under Magic and Abilities, and also on individual Magic pages, much like Quirks. I can see the need of One Piece Wiki’s to remove them from character pages, since their sections are enormous, but that doesn’t apply to our wiki yet.

tl;dr: I see your point and think it’s a great idea to place techniques in Quirk pages, but don’t agree with removing them from character pages for the reasons listed above.
