== How should Japanese names be input in English moegirlpedia? ==
+
== Category page deletion (3) ==
  
;Given names come first, or family names come first?
+
Can you delete this category, please? I am having a hard time rearranging the categories...
:For example, '''Mikoto Misaka''' or '''Misaka Mikoto'''? I'm used to the first one, while some users prefer the last one. (However, if it's a name in the history, I would use the last one, too. For example, '''Abe no Seimei'''. And if it's a Chinese name written in Japanese, I would choose the last one too, for example, '''Chō Soran''', '''Riku Suigin''')
 
;Use which romaji?
 
:How to show ''chángyīn''? For example, '''Tomā Kamijō''', '''Toma Kamijo''' or '''Touma Kamijou'''?
 
:Before b, p, m, ん, '''n''' or '''m'''? For example, '''Tenma Gabriel White''' or '''Tem'ma Gabriel White'''? '''Nanba''' or '''Namba'''?
 
  
If I come up with some other ideas, I will put here, too.

== Please add the code to [[:Module: Loop]] ==
  
== Advice about avoiding using nonstandard abbrs beyond talk pages ==
+
Code:
 +
<pre>
 +
function module.fornumargs(frame)
 +
local args = frame.args
 +
local parent = frame:getParent()
 +
local prefix = mw.text.trim(args[1] or '')
 +
local numname = mw.text.trim(args[2] or '')
 +
local valname = mw.text.trim(args[3] or '')
 +
local cond = mw.text.decode(mw.text.unstripNoWiki(mw.text.trim(args.cond or '')))
 +
local text = mw.text.decode(mw.text.unstripNoWiki(mw.text.trim(args[4] or '')))
 +
if not parent or numname == '' or valname == '' or text == '' then return '' end
  
Now some users are using nonstandard abbrs in the pages, like 2 stands for ''to'', 4 stands for ''for'', pls/plz stands for ''please'', btw stands for ''by the way'', and so on. These abbrs are bad, I think. In my opinion, these abbrs should only be allowed in talk pages, like here. Btw, some traditional abbrs should be allowed everywhere, like e.g. stands for ''for example'', etc. stands for ''and so on'', OP stands for ''opening theme/song'', ep. stands for ''episode''. These are good abbrs, I think. This is just my opinion. Let's have a duscussion below. —[[User:Honoka55|<img src="https://img.moegirl.org/common/avatars/200315/original.png?ver=58a905d4" style="width: 2.5em;border-radius: 50%;box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);"/> <span style="color:#FF6600">Honoka55</span>]]([[User_talk:Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">Message me</span>]]·[[Special:Contributions/Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">My contributions</span>]]) 05:38, 19 June 2017 (CDT)

:Well, I'd like to help, but I know little about ''Touhou''. You can do it by copying from Chinese and translating the names into English. If that's difficult for you, you can start with a small template. Add [[Reimu Hakurei]] and [[Marisa Kirisame]] to it first and make it larger later.
