:::: Nope, Echelon is absolutely correct.  The Japanese wikipedia is located at http://ja.wikipedia.org/, so the Japanese StrategyWiki should be located at http://ja.strategywiki.org because it matches wikipedia's naming convention.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] 18:01, 2 February 2007 (CST)

The article says "When writing, always maintain a single focussed "voice". Do not refer to yourself ("I", "me", etc.) in the guide, unless it is specifically necessary (e.g. "User:NameHere has found that collecting all five keys within 30 seconds can actually be done, as long as...". However this is solely for the purpose of asserting that something is possible, rather than claiming glory for having achieved it."
The example given isn't particularly good. Does the fact that a named person has found something assert it is true, anymore than just saying "Collecting all five keys within 30 seconds can actually be done, as long as..."? It looks very much to me like someone is claiming glory.
Personally I think having any usernames listed in the article text looks unprofessional. Maybe I could be persuaded if there was a better example of where a username really is necessary. [[User:Pelago|Pelago]] 15:37, 13 July 2007 (CDT)
