Creating New Articles

In order to create a new article, please decide on the title of the article you want, and then search for it via the Search box on the lower left side of this screen. If your article does not yet exist, you will then have the option of creating it.

Article Titles

When the article title is a proper name or proper noun, capitalize both:

Oda Nobunaga

When the article name is mixed (a proper noun followed by a regular noun), only capitalize the first word:

Osaka castle

Mori clan

Do not include "long vowel sounds" in the article titles: Example: Môri Motonari, only include them within the text.

How To Correctly Format Links

Code: The castle called [[Maruyama castle|Maruyama]] fell in 1185.
Result: The castle called Maruyama fell in 1185.

Code: The [[Imagawa clan|Imagawa]] invaded in 1565.
Result: The Imagawa invaded in 1565.

Code: The battle was fought at [[Oda Nobunaga|Nobunaga's]] house.
Result: The battle was fought at Nobunaga's house.
(Notice the apostrophe is included in the link)

Code: [[Mori Motonari|Môri Motonari]] took a trip to [[Omi province|Ômi province]].
Result: Môri Motonari took a trip to Ômi province.
(Notice that the actual link does not contain the ô. Links formatted like this: Môri Motonari ( [[Môri Motonari]] ) do not work.)

Categorizing Articles

Please place the category links at the bottom of your article. For example, if your article is a "Bujutsu" related article, place [[Category:Bujutsu]] at the bottom of the article.
