Request for mediation of Video games developed in Japan, second notice
editThe mediation request has stalled because some of the lesser-involved parties did not answer to the note they received on their talk page. I have notified users jgp and Ost316 again, who both are the most likely to be interested in participating, though mediation cannot commence until all parties agree.
If you have no objections to going into mediation even without the users that have not signed up so far, please leave a short indication of your agreement in this section at the request page. Thank you. Prime Blue (talk) 11:47, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Keep the Japanese video game titles intact.
editYou know that a game like Armored Core was made in Japan and had its title spelt with Latin characters. Still, you should've realized this: Many people in Japan pronounce the name "Armored Core" as "Āmādo Koa" and spell it like "アーマード・コア" because English-language words are pronounced differently in Japan, so keep the Japanese video game titles intact, and don't remove them. Of course people who speak Japanese can spell the name in English letters, but most prefer using Kanji and Romanji to understand the name easier for Japanese language. Good articles and Featured articles about Japanese video games have the 'nihongo foot' template, so please keep this in mind. «ias!|,,.|usbk» 06:23, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
