−*The following words are '''not''' capitalized in links:
−** castle i.e. [[Saiki castle]]
−** province i.e. [[Musashi province]]
−** han i.e. [[Hiroshima han]]
−** clan i.e. [[Maeda clan]]
−**
−* The following words '''are''' capitalized in links:
−** Affair i.e. [[Icarus Affair]]
−** Incident i.e. [[Teradaya Incident]]
−** Period i.e. [[Sengoku Period]]
−** Rebellion i.e. [[Kinmon Rebellion]]
−** War i.e. [[Boshin War]]
−** Ryu i.e. [[Araki Ryu]]
