==Wiki guidelines== | |||
The following page is a set of guidelines for this Japanese mahjong wiki. | |||
===Scope=== | |||
Otherwise known as Riichi mahjong, Japanese mahjong is the general scope of this Wiki. Therefore, all other mahjong variations are not to be included here. Nevertheless, any material pertaining to Japanese mahjong either from referenced work and/or original material from game play experience may be included here. | |||
===Purpose=== | |||
To the West, this game is a little known game. However, thanks to a few anime like Akagi and Saki, the game has taken a limelight. A number of published work regarding the game exists. Unfortunately, they are mostly printed in Japanese. So, players unfamiliar with the language do not have easy access to this material. | |||
===Editing guide=== | |||
* '''Article pages''' contain information on various aspects of the game from basic rules, terminology, and strategy. | |||
* '''Talk pages''' are available for each article to be best used for article editing notes, discussion, and debate. | |||
===Viewpoints=== | |||
It is important to note for any Wiki. Multiple users each have their own viewpoints. With regards to editing, we do our best to supplement as many readers and editors as possible. While agreement is ideal, dispute may be unavoidable. Individuals or groups of individuals should do their best arrive at some sort of compromise, in order to proceed with the editing process and ultimately produce a good referential product. | |||
===Standardization=== | |||
While this Wiki is written in English, the standard choice is American English. Here, all rules pertaining to grammar and vocabulary pertaining to American English applies. | |||
====Article naming==== | |||
All articles begins with an uppercase letter. Other words in the title are to begin in lowercase. | |||
For example: Kokushi musou. Not ''Kokushi Musou''. | |||
====Proper nouns==== | |||
It is established that the yaku are not to be treated as proper nouns. Therefore, proper noun capitalization does not apply to them. |
