We should open this topic -- yet again -- because I'm starting to doubt my decision to enforce a "last name-first name" naming system for Japanese characters. It's primarily because I can't do the same on the article itself, and that creates a discrepancy on the article. It's best that everyone active must join so that I can gather enough votes for the naming system you choose.

:Since this is an English language Wiki, one would expect the names to be in "1st name - Last name" order.--[[User:Sxerks|Sxerks]] 03:50, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

Naming

So what's going on with the name order? Is is western style or not? There are quite a few western names already in the series. Reasoning?--Sxerks 04:54, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Ya, and u guys keep moving the pages around, from western to Jap. to bak again. Maybe a proper style should be discussed. Btw, when moving a page, sometimes its better to not suppress the redirect. ..AlienGamer (userpagetalk) 05:41, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Naming and then Some

I've changed everything so that it follows native naming order (Japanese will have last name then first name, reverse goes to Western people) and the currently accepted spellings (i.e. Kamijou Touma). For others, I've used the names given in the Wikipedia article, though it can have some discrepancies. Redirects will be made later. As for official Hepburn romanizations, how and where shall we place it? On the article itself or on the infobox only?


Also, can we take down the Wikipedia snippet from this page? It's too bulky and it is already outdated given that there are new characters already added to its source page. ----Herald of meridian 00:51, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Section Impovement

By the way guys, we need to improved our wiki like adding Academy City Faculty and Staff and Child Errors in Category:Characters. Well it's only a sugestion. Hope you all can reconsider it (^^)V
