Umamusume Wiki:Contributing
Contributing Guidelines
Try to keep things consistent! If an existing page or section has a similar concept, use it as a guide.
For anything that isn't a trivial part of the franchise (i.e. not easily proven from official materials), please try to cite it. If you don't have a solid source, try to find one, otherwise consider not adding that specific fact. If you must add it, mark it as needing a citation.
General Translation Guidelines
For sentence-long or longer fields (e.g. secrets), use proper English grammar and punctuation. Please end sentences with a period!
For fields that are a list of phrases or similar (e.g. strengths, nicknames) use comma-separated phrases and capitalize each phrase.
However, feel free to break "proper" grammar rules if it makes sense in context (e.g. Helios).
Keep honorifics in, and add a hyphen to separate them from the name.
Romanization
For names with an official romanization (e.g. character names) always use the official name.
Otherwise, use Modified Hepburn, but you can ignore the macrons for long vowels (e.g. てんのうしょう > Tennosho).
