Romanization Standards

Particles are to be romanized as they are pronounced in normal speech.

  • は = wa
  • を = o
  • へ = e

Words ending in ん have it connected to the previous word. Separate particles are kept separate, unless the meaning would be changed.

  • 行くんだよ = ikun da yo

Katakana is capitalized, and written as pronounced, not as the translated word if non-Japanese.

  • ロマンス = ROMANSU
  • ページ = PEEJI
  • キミ = KIMI

Japanese punctuation is replaced with English counterparts.

  • 。 = .
  • 。。。 = ... (This is three separate . and not the combined ellipsis character.)
  • （） = ()
  • 「」 = ""
  • ！？ = !?
  • 、 = ,
  • 〜 = ~
  • 〜〜 = ~ (Only use one ~ even when Japanese has more.)
  • ー = - (EXCEPT when it is used as part of katakana.)
  • ーー = --
  • ーーー = -- (Only use up to two - even when Japanese has more.)

If pronunciation is purposely changed from what's written (sometimes happens in song lyrics), write what is said.

  • ちゃんと胸（ココ）にある = chanto KOKO ni aru

English or anything else written in Latin script is kept as-is, save for switching from full-width letters and characters.

  • ＨＩ！ This is an example sentence. = HI! This is an example sentence.

Uploading Files

You can upload files several ways. Please remember to check that the file does not already exist before you upload it.

  1. The Upload File page allows you to add one file at a time.
  2. While you are editing any page, you can drag+drop multiple files at once into the editor. These can then be renamed and inserted into the page. If you add files while editing a Category, the files can be added to that category. Otherwise, you will have to edit the File page to add it to a category.
  3. If a page links to a file that does not yet exist, it will show as a red hyperlink. Clicking on the hyperlink will take you to the Upload File page with the file name already filled in. There is a list of Wanted Files as well as Pages with broken file links.
