==Game 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.
===Article titles===
For the sake of consistency (if possible), article titles, especially articles dedicated to terminology, use the Romaji form.  If not possible, then an English equivalent will suffice.  An English form is best used when there is either no Japanese equivalent.
==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.
