== Re:Rub characters template ==
 
Before I do anything else, I just like to know what a "ruby characters" template is. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:14, 7 November 2015 (EST)
:Hm, that's what I thought. Our wiki doesn't have an equivalent, but I've been suggested by an admin and [[MarioWiki:Japanese]] to use span class explain tags as in [[Big Lantern Ghost]]'s profile. I wasn't aware of the existence of a ruby tag, but I do think our wiki can benefit from a template of either the two since explain tags are usually a pain to write out anyway. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 14:29, 7 November 2015 (EST)
 
::あのう、as for that ruby character template, I [http://www.mariowiki.com/MarioWiki_talk:Japanese#furigana_template suggested] the idea on 13 February 2016 but Walkazo didn't reply me even though she [http://www.mariowiki.com/Talk:Main_Page#statistics was responding] on something else later so I guess she personally didn't approve of the idea. It seems to be because many pages have already started to use <code>&lt;span class=explain title="..."&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</code> so switching to a new template will be huge work and leaving two ways of introducing furigana will be messy and look inconsistent.

where furigana will make the left and right columns out of sync? {{User:A gossip-loving Toad/sig}}  04:47, 7 May 2016 (EDT)
: This works, but there is a side problem: the wiki has a rather small font size, namely 12.7px for text and 12px for references. On a computer, this means that furigana will be about 6 or 7 px. An obvious solution is to have larger fonts or even special divs for game dialogues, like the one on [https://tcrf.net/Paper_Mario:_The_Thousand-Year_Door/Unused_Text The Cutting Room Floor], but I'm wondering what to do to the foreign name boxes on this wiki. Perhaps as
<blockquote>
{{foreign names
|Jap=ほうき星の天文台 (ほうきぼしのてんもんだい)
|JapR=Hōkiboshi no Tenmondai
|JapM=Comet Observatory
}}</blockquote>
:(This is the format used on the Japanese Wikipedia)? I'd like to see furigana when presenting original game text and dialogs, though. I have already used it [http://www.mariowiki.com/Comet_Observatory#cite_note-smg1rosalina-3 once]. {{User:A gossip-loving Toad/sig}}  05:08, 14 May 2016 (EDT)
 
== MW:JAPANESE ==
 
Some things MW:JAPANESE has not yet covered:
#Should <ruby style="font-size:130%">鳳凰<rt>ほうおう</rt></ruby> be romanized as ''Hōō'' or ''Hō'ō'' ? Wiktionary does not include the apostrophe but I [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Cractyl&type=revision&diff=2019455&oldid=1974941 added it] since I think it looks better when added.
#Sometimes a word is written in katakana but really from hiragana. Do you think they should still be romanized using the rules for hiragana? For example, "[[Koops|ノコタロウ]]" is derived from <ruby style="font-size:130%">太郎<rt>たろう</rt></ruby>. I suppose that should still be romanized as "Nokotarō" instead of "Nokotarou"?

Hi.
 
Thank you for posting the image. If I must ask, do you by any chance know where you got the image assuming you didn't already have it? [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] ([[User talk:Weedle McHairybug|talk]]) 14:23, 25 May 2017 (EDT)
