::::::Yes, there does not seem to currently be any policy page outlining the usage of Japanese names on Bulbapedia pages. There is [[User:Abcboy/Policy/Foreign|this proposed policy]] that essentially outlines the current conventions (even though the conventions seem to have not been written down anywhere). | ::::::Yes, there does not seem to currently be any policy page outlining the usage of Japanese names on Bulbapedia pages.

::::::Regarding the Romanization policy page, I would recommend leaving a message on the talk page, but I'll address both of your concerns. Your correction of the false implication that Hepburn isn't used in Japan has been kept on the page (although it was only an implication and never an explicitly false statement). Romanization doesn't necessarily mean a systematic romanization, so the way official Japanese media renders Japanese names in Latin letters can be accurately described as romanization. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 05:44, 10 January 2017 (UTC) | ::::::Regarding the Romanization policy page, I would recommend leaving a message on the talk page, but I'll address both of your concerns.

:::::::I'd just kind of like to emphasize, yes, please do use the talk page. Refraining from using a talk page out of fear that it won't be noticed is kind of putting the cart before the horse. Try it first. They're an easy place for any/everyone to respond, as opposed to users' talk pages where it's usually polite to try to let that person respond.
