===Linking to chapter/round titles=== | |||
Manga chapters/rounds should be linked like anime episodes. The title, when available, should be used rather than just linking to the epicode, e.g. ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]'' as opposed to [[PS001]]. | |||
Manga that have been translated into English should be linked by the English name rather than the Japanese name. If it was translated by VIZ Media and Chuang Yi, VIZ Media's title should be used in the link (the Chuang Yi title will still be in the opening sentence alongside VIZ Media's, see below). The same goes for characters with different names in different translations, for example, [[Aibo]] will be linked rather than [[Ataro]]. | |||

In the case of [[Pokémon Adventures]] rounds from [[PS091]] onward, where both [[VIZ Media]] and [[Chuang Yi]] have separate translations, both names are to be included, with the VIZ Media name listed first. The same treatment of the titles should also be done in the {{template|Chapterinfobox}}, with the VIZ Media title listed first. Example: | |||
'''{{tt|Murkrow Row|VIZ Media}}''' or '''{{tt|Murkrow Flies|Chuang Yi}}''' (Japanese: '''VS ヤミカラス''' ''VS. {{tt|Yamikarasu|Murkrow}}'') is the 91st round of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga and the first round of the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. | |||

''Escape!!'') is the 268th round of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga and also the first one in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. | (Japanese: '''{{tt|脱出|エスケイプ}}!!'''

For chapters/rounds in romanized Japanese, when proper names are used, the name should be the Japanese name, with a {{Template|Tt}} template showing the English translated name, if applicable. For example, see [[GDZ02]] as (Japanese: '''強敵・フシギバナ!''' ''Fierce Foe - {{tt|Fushigibana|Venusaur}}!''). When linking to these titles, however, for simplicity, at this time it is okay to switch the proper name to the English one (so this example would be linked as ''[[GDZ02|Fierce Foe - Venusaur]]''). | |||
