===Article titles===
For Japanese music articles, the page title should be the translated version - '''not the Romanized version'''. If there are a song and a CD that share a name (as they often do) - the song page should get the "clean" title, while the CD page should get " (CD)" or " (single)" in its title. The song page should link to the CD page. Human characters may keep their Romaji names (like in ''[[Takeshi's Paradise]]''), but Pokémon take their English names (like in ''[[Big Meowth Day]]'').

In an article, the title of an album should be italicized. When writing the titles of individual songs, including anime opening and ending themes, italics should not be used.

If the article is about an {{Cat|Opening themes|opening}}/{{Cat|Ending themes|ending}} theme of the {{pkmn|anime}}, then the article should start with the [[Template:PrevNext]] bar. Next is the song infobox (see below).

If the song was used as an opening/ending theme in the anime, the next section should be '''Synopsis''', followed by '''Characters''', divided to ''Human'' and ''Pokémon''.

Other sections that should follow if relevant, in this order, are '''Lyrics''', '''Credits''', '''Trivia''', '''External links''' and navigation templates. If the [[Template:PrevNext]] bar was used in the begining of the article, it should now be copied here as well. Last comes the project notice and (of course) the categorization.
