Formatting and Style

• Temple Names: eg: 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."
• In all articles, years between 1850 and 1950 should be hyperlinked (like this [[1XXX]] ).
• 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
