The way I was taught, "n" before a b- or p- kana is [[wikipedia:N (kana)|romanized and pronounced]] as "m". So, you get "Kumbira" and stuff like that. I assume we're using [[wikipedia:Wāpuro rōmaji|Wāpuro rōmaji]] as the standard, right? If there's something I'm missing, please explain. Thanks![[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 22:51, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

::See, I thought we were using wapuro because of how we do long and combination vowels: [[wikipedia:Hepburn_romanization#Long_vowels|here]] and [[wikipedia:Hepburn_romanization#Variations|here]]. On a personal note, I greatly dislike using Hepburn pretty much for that reason. To me, one of the best things about the Japanese language is how regular it is, and Hepburn manages to stuff English's randomness and seemingly arbitrary rules into that.

::Never mind. Looking at the wapuro rules again, "n" is always romanized as "n" anyway, so the m thing is just in traditional Hepburn, I guess. The only problem here, then, is whether it's worth mentioning (maybe as a notation in the article), that the romaji are pronounced as "m" instead of "n". What do you think?[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 23:15, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

On an aesthetic note, [[:File:Days oathkeeper.png]] and [[:File:Days_oblivion.png]] are the best Keyblade sprites we have. Would it be at all possible to get the other Keyblade sprites at that size and quality?[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 00:06, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

I accidentally copied the kana from the KHII article, let me replace it with the correct kana from websites.
*"Kearu" is what the websites gave, and it appears in BBS as well, from what I've seen.[http://kh2_fm.wikiwiki.jp/?%A5%A2%A5%D3%A5%EA%A5%C6%A5%A3#oe15b014 Here].
*"Ferious" is also what I saw for Beast, though the fansites I copied it from might have been wrong.[http://f4.aaa.livedoor.jp/~teke/KingdomHearts/kh_abirithi.htm Here].
*Are you sure it should be "asper" (rough), rather than "Aspiré" (breathing)?
*From the MOS I'm familiar with, citations are done before commas but after periods.
[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 17:28, February 9, 2010 (UTC)
:*Huh. Seems it is Kearu. Where'd I get Kuaru, I wonder. o_o
:*KH1 has Fyurious. I have seen typos on these wikis before, I'd say use the one that makes more sense...
:*I'm not sure if it's asper, but I really don't think it's aspiré, since like I said, it's ''asupiru'', not ''asupi'''re'''''. And I think "rough" goes with "MP ''Rage''" a bit better than breath, but it's honestly realy odd in general...
:*[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS:PAIC#Punctuation_and_inline_citations Citations come after punctuation,] except for some cases like dashes (and parentheses, or I did at least) where putting the citation after would be confusing.

::Okay, never mind, Ferious gets a lot of hits. Why would they transliterate it that way.—[[User:Urutapu|Urutapu]] 20:01, February 9, 2010 (UTC)
:::OK. I guess I need to redo basically all of my pre-comma citations. Erg.

== [[Forum:Staff Reorganization and the Goblet of...wait]] ==
The Kingdom Hearts Wiki has decided to perform a staff reorganization. We would like to move any retired editors off of the list of active staff. This does not entail a revoking of your staff powers - if you ever decide to come back, you can pick up right where you left off. We would like to know whether or not you would like to officially retire, to make space for newer active staff. If you would like to keep your seat, please reply to this message. If you decide not to reply, or reply with agreement, we will move your entry to a list of "Retired Staff", so that editors will not be confused when reading the staff list.[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 13:34, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
== Ready to Retire? ==
[[Forum:KHWiki Staff: Reverse/Rebirth|I strongly encourage you to view and reply to this forum.]] It has been a long time since you have significantly contributed to the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki, and it has come to question whether or not you should remain listed as an active staff member. Because of this, we need to know if you have any plans to resume a higher activity of working on the wiki in the near future. Of course, your user rights and position will not be taken away if you plan on continuing your low activity. If you choose to return, everything will remain just as it was. Thanks! --{{User:DoorToNothing/Sig}} 08:29, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

You came back! Awesome.
Out of curiosity, when is "Enigmatic" used in Chain of Memories?{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 19:52, January 25, 2011 (UTC)
:I dunno how active I'm gonna be, but long time no see!
:Jiminy's Journal refers to the Organization member that delivers the card tutorials, etc. as the Enigmatic Man. He's Marluxia, of course, but I don't think the journal ever updates to reflect that (which actually makes more sense than the alternative, since I'm pretty sure Sora and gang never got actual proof of who the Enigmatic Man was). This might only be true for the GBA version, though. I never played Re:COM.—[[User:Urutapu|Urutapu]] 21:18, January 25, 2011 (UTC)
== Heyyyy! ==
You came back again! Awesome.
So, first off, are you planning on being active? We are right in the middle of staff elections, and part of that is moving all active mods up to administrator rank. If you do plan to be here a lot, I'll update the election-info page accordingly, and you'll have a shiny new adminship come Monday. If not, then you'll still have your modship, and we'll probably have elections again when you do become active.
Thanks!{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 16:05, 18 February 2011 (EST)
== Just a reminder ==
The staff elections will be over in four hours, so please be ready with the other staff members on the IRC so that we can get this discussion done. I've opened up #KHWIKI-STAFF for the discussion, but I'm going to op you guys as soon as you arrive so that you can /kick any non-staff who try to sneak in. Once you guys reach a decision on the two ops, message DTN, Neummanz and me on our talk pages, and we'll show up to help discuss the Admin and Mod nominations. If you can't show up this evening, no harm done. Thanks!{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 15:04, 21 February 2011 (EST)

:Just to check: For [[Rampant]], do you think "Lively" would fit the description? Also, is [[Vibrant]] a good enough translation on its own?{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 17:18, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
::With 2.8 and the upcoming releases, the itch came back...hope you've been well. And yeah, those translations seem alright to me.--[[User:Urutapu|Urutapu]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]]) 19:27, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
== Xaldin ==
For Zephyr and Moonglade, my interpretation was that Xaldin's lances were supposed to have a "Chinese" theme, due to the strong focus on pure-kanji names with no kana. Therefore, wouldn't the On'yomi for those two make the most sense?{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:27, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
:Nevermind, that's what you changed it to. Sorry.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:28, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
