 ==== Use of Japanese ====
-This wiki is almost entirely written in English. However, Japanese is used in a few places. Currently, this is entirely limited to just the names of series and the occasional and random use of honorifics.\\  In the future, this may change.\\  Whenever Japanese is written in kanji, a phonetic transcription is written above in hiragana and an English translation is provided in brackets following it.\\  There are some exceptions to the above. For example, katakana might be used instead of hiragana.((:fn:>Mostly in relation to the [[lb:toaru]].))\\  However, occasionally, rather than an English translation, you //might// see a transliteration instead. This is mostly dependent on two things: 1. The transliteration is more commonly known (Hanasaku Iroha); 2. I prefer the transliteration over the translation (Hansaku Iroha). In general, though, you'll see the English translation in the opening text 9 times out of 10.\\  Excluding the use of Kanji, Japanese is used extensively for the names of Japanese media. Outside of this, the use of Japanese is largely context-dependent.

 Probably not the best place to put, but I can’t currently think of how I'd structure this better.\\  This contains a list of terms that have some confusion surrounding them and how I hope to resolve that. Not the best wording, I know, but think of it as temporary until I fix it.
-  * //[[playground:world.of.darkness]]/[[playground:chronicles.of.darkness]]// instead of //old World of Darkness/new World of Darkness//
+  * //[[lb:wod]]/[[lb:cod]]// instead of //old World of Darkness/new World of Darkness//
     * Bar a few exceptions, I will use these two terms exclusively to refer to the separate brands.
     * The why is simple: it's too much of a hassle to keep adding ‘Chronicles of Darkness or the new World of Darkness’ all over the place and mentioning it outside of the dedicated articles seems pointless to me. Plus, ‘World of Darkness’/‘Chronicles of Darkness’ are less confusing than oWoD/nWoD and still betray some connection between the two.

 This was initially because I didn't realize you could have the first headline be set as the title of a tab. Because I prefer to read what the article title is, I made the sub-sections of the site two-letter combinations.\\  I've kept it like this because changing the namespaces of all the wiki articles at this point would be too much work, and because two letters aren't difficult to type. LoreBook became ‘lb’ because I wished to separate the site into different sub-sections, that would generally be separate from each-other. So basically: [[:st]] is where you go for stories; [[:lb]] is where you go for wiki articles.\\  [[:start|Start]] initially reflected this, and had an explanation of each section, but then I realized I could just move that to the opening text of [[:lb]]. It will likely remain like this until some drastic change occurs.
