Hi, welcome to InuYasha! Thanks for your edit to the Miroku page.

Re:Episode infobox
Hi there. The 'Piece', 'format', 'eyecatcher', 'rating' and 'rank' fields in the info box are relatively simple. The 'piece' is the number episode in it's season. For example, the third episode of the series would be the third episode of the first season, so it's 'piece' field would be 3. The format is the TV format ( such as HD, 3:4, etc.). See this Wikipedia page for a quick description of what an eye-catcher is. The rating is the TV rating the show has (I'm fairly sure InuYasha is rated TV-14) And finally, the rank is how the anime is ranked in various magazines. セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 02:17, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Goryōmaru
Yes, of course. I would refer to one of my articles, preferably either Menōmaru or Kyōra for a reference of how an article should look in terms of structure and how it is organized. Or, if you just want an outline see here. I would contribute a good deal more detail if possible to his history. Your references are not necessarily in line with how I believe references are normally written. You've done like a legitimate citation, but I'm sure this can be done much simpler, like simply citing a link to the actual manga volume. But since that would only be a red link, as we don't have any manga volume articles, this may pose a problem for legitimacy purposes. For clarification on the references question, I would consult Serena. Further, one must always write in an in-universe perspective. You shouldn't refer to the manga or anime outside of the trivia section, you have to treat Goryōmaru as an actual person, not a fictional character. Lastly, the article should be written in past tense (although I sometimes write in present tense for "Appearance" and some other sections--see one of the articles I listed above for when it is used, because frankly I can't remember off the top of my head, haha). That's all I can think of at any rate. Please let me know if and when you'd like me to look at it again!-- Suzaku 朱雀 Maze Castle 02:15, December 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm happy to help. And as far as the history goes, just be as detailed as possible, maybe just short of a play-by-play. Although be brief when you're discussing information that Goryomaru wouldn't have been privy too. For instance, you wouldn't give a detailed description of, say, Kagura being saved by Sesshomaru, since Goryomaru wasn't there. But if it was Hakudoshi's attack on the temple, which he was obviously there for, then that should get as much detail as you can coax out of the episode or manga that you're using as reference material. Anyway, that's how I write it.-- Suzaku 朱雀 Maze Castle 00:36, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Writing Style
It applies to all character pages. セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 16:13, December 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, we act as though they are real people. And no, we write in past tense because the series has ended, meaning that its no longer ongoing. People will be able to tell that they're not dead because the infobox has no "Death" section on their pages. Hopefully that clears things up? セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 16:24, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

It's no bother, I'm glad to help. 1) Hehe, you've gone a little overboard. There's no need to add dates or Copyright info to the references. All you need is the link, such as to the InuYasha Companion site, so that much is right. And as far as Volumes go, you should actually site the specific chapter it was in rather than the entire volume. And all the additional info can be gotten rid of. 2) I can later, but I'm a bit busy at the moment. I'll make one as soon as I can, though. ^^ セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 16:47, December 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * no problem. =) セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 17:08, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Takahashi's books
Happy holidays to you as well. I have heard of both books (I wish I had them, lol) and yes, you may definitely use them as references in articles. They are very good sources of information. :) セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 23:43, December 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * I know, and I've been trying to get to the main page, but I've been so busy. If you'd like to help, just tell me so and you can help somehow. I'll start working on it today and put other things aside for now. I just need to make some graphics for it. Rowan is actually a good friend of mine in real life. And yeah, she has been contributing a lot. I asked her to help out with the InuYasha Wiki and gave her admin status so she could do more than just edit pages (she helped install the new preloads list in the editing screen from the HP Wiki, which I think makes things a lot easier when adding infoboxes to pages). The Welcome tool doesn't welcome admins or high-ranking users because usually those users already understand the wiki policies and won't need a welcoming, lol. セレナ(Rin &amp; Sesshōmaru) 16:19, December 25, 2011 (UTC)
