| We should use as much Japanese as possible because: 1) it is a uniting language for people in Idol Culture; and 2) it helps when we want to conduct research in Japanese. So where applicable, please Title (Header 1) things in their native language, using the Native Name with the Romanization in parenthesis if needed. For example, 山口百恵(Yamaguchi Momoe). However, when [[creating entries]] we create them with the Romanized Names for the wiki's urls. | We should use as much Japanese as possible because: 1) it is a uniting language for people in Idol Culture; and 2) it helps when we want to conduct research in Japanese.

| - | Next lets talk about the Idol Entry Pages. So in general, we do not want create huge entries with tons of information on the Idols. We want to link to places that have huge entries with tons of information on the Idols. Since the wiki is aiming to be a routing hub, lets just put people in contact with the good info. We do not want to duplicate efforts. We do not want to do work that other groups are already doing. We want to link to work that others have already done.

| Culture and Events Entries are the main exception to the rules here. With this wiki in most pages we will be attempting to be as brief as possible, but in these we want to be as detailed and verbose as possible. We still want many links to articles and videos on the subject matter, but the entries themselves should be as detailed as possible. | Culture and Events Entries are the main exception to the rules here.

| + | ===== Talk Pages ===== | ||

| + | You can create a talk page for each page by clicking the edit button and clicking on start a discussion. You can use talk pages to discuss the actual entry (I was thinking of adding a section for this, or maybe we should split the article in half, or because this is so common maybe we should find better links, or I changed the old format because it was too long). | ||
