:I'll change the wording - basically "objects" that there are a lot of (clans, castles, provinces, hans) - I'll just create a list on the help page.  Titles are capitalized (unless there is a "no" in it). There are still a few things that aren't decided (i.e. Kodai-in vs. Kodai-In) - the main problem is with the software itself - if the second word is capitalized, all links have to be capitalized, and if they are lower case, all links have to be lower case. It was that mess that caused this semi-arbitrary capitalization in the first place.  Best thing to do is to look at other similar articles.  --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 13:10, 28 June 2007 (PDT)

==Name Usage==
 +
Quick question--for things like [[Mori Nagasada]], would you prefer to use the adult name (Family name and nanori) as the base article, or do you want to use the more popular name (in this case a childhood name, it seems--Mori Ranmaru).  It looks like this name is more popular (I did a quick Japanese Wiki search--it seems that he and his brothers who were pages to Oda Nobunaga are best remembered for that role, and are thus remembered by their childhood names; at least, that's my conjecture).  - [[User:JLBadgley|JLBadgley]] 16:48, 7 November 2007 (PST)

:Use the name that is at the top of the article in the dictionary, in this case Mori Ranmaru, since that is the only commonly used name for him, and as far as I know, that is what he was mainly known as.  I'll move the article now. It's like [[Sanada Yukimura]] - that wasn't his commonly used name in history, but no one is going to know him by any other name now. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 16:54, 7 November 2007 (PST)

==Kanji Pages==
 +
"...add the kanji to the fujiwara kanji page rather than (or before) creating a bunch of kanji pages without the kanji."  I'm trying to understand what you mean.  Do you mean create a page (e.g. 藤原 (Fujiwara) ), then add the various names--or are you talking about finding the kanji for the people who are listed on that page and making sure we have that kanji before we put their name on the kanji page?  Sorry, new concept--trying to understand how best to use it.  --[[User:JLBadgley|JLBadgley]] 21:31, 29 November 2007 (PST)

== Refence lists for Kukishin ryu ==
 +
 +
Hi!
 +
 +
I originally created the Kukishin ryu article (this version) over at Wikipedia. The way to format citation is a great deal different there (that is, I don't know of any easy code to do it with yet). I was using the reflist tag in the original...is there something like that here that you know of, or does it have to all be done manually? If you would be so kind to throw me a link to some tags and formatting, I would be greatly appreciated. For now I am just going to put them in by hand.

== Shinto Task Force ==
 +
 +
Good idea or no?
 +
 +
I would like to ask to start one if possible. :)
 +
 +
Nope, we don't have enough people working on ''any'' task forces right now to justify another one. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:42, 12 March 2008 (PDT)

== Keeping you busy... ==
 +
 +
Well, I attempted to merge the Kukishinden Ryu page and the Kukishin Ryu page....without realizing the ins-and-outs here. Pardon me! I reverted what I messed up back. So...can a merge be done??

Merges have to be done manually. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:43, 12 March 2008 (PDT)

:So, I can *I* do it? If so, do you have a reference for me?

::There is no "automatic" or "automated" way to do it - you have to do it manually - in other words, retype it by hand.  --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:55, 28 May 2008 (PDT)

Response to message at Mekugi's board:

It's 99% Steve Delaney's and my work (from the time I posted it here) from Wikipedia. Yes, I am very aware about the formatting! It's coming, be patient with me please :).
