Formatting and Style
Conventions
- Pīnyīn 拼音, including tone markings, should be included for all Chinese terms. For the correct placement of tone markings, follow these rules (for full rules on writing pīnyīn, see this page on Wikipedia):
- If there is an "A" or an "E", that letter takes the tone mark. (E.g. Bèihǎi yuán 北海園)
- If the vowel cluster is "OU", the "O" takes the mark. (E.g. dòu 豆, Ōuyáng 歐陽)
- In all other cases, the mark falls on the final vowel. (E.g. Xióng 熊, duō 多)
- The syllables of monastic and other disyllabic names should not be separated. E.g. 印順 is Yìnshùn, not Yìn Shùn.
- Temple Names are rendered in the following manner: Guānyīn Temple 觀音寺.
- If the temple name is in the form "XX古寺", then the name should be given as "XX Ancient Temple".
- For XX講寺, use "XX Lecture Temple".
- 唯識 is translated as "Consciousness-Only", 法相 as "Dharmalakṣaṇa". 法相唯識 is translated as "Dharmalakṣaṇa and Consciousness-Only".
- Publication titles that are mentioned as part of a block of text should be formatted thus: Awakening of Faith in the Mahāyāna (Dàshèng qǐxìn lùn 大乘起信論)
- If the publication title does not have a standard or widely-accepted English translation, it can be cited thus: Tíwèi bōlì jīng 提謂波利經 (Sūtra of Trapuṣa and Bhallika)
- All years between 1850 and 1950 should be linked (like this [[1XXX]]).
- Decades can also be linked (e.g. [[1930s]])
- The Cite extension has been installed, please use it for footnotes in articles. See the linked page or the 戴季陶 article for examples of usage.
- If there are no notes for the article, then the notes section can be omitted, but don't forget to add one if you add a reference to an article
- Use bullet points to separate references cited at the end of the article
