Shonen vs. shōnen[edit]
I noticed your recent edit warring regarding your preference for an un-macronned "o" versus one with a macron. I recommend reading the Manual of Style (Japan-related articles) to gain a better understanding of why we use the "o" with the macron. The gist of it is because words such as shōnen are not part of the standard English lexicon (despite what many fans of anime and manga may think), and therefore it needs to be romanized according to the standards set forth in the applicable Manual of Style (linked above). You may also be interested in reading the lengthy discussions on this topic in the archives of that page: here, here, here, here, and here. You are also free to bring up your concerns on the WikiProject Anime talk page (for anime-related manual of style questions) or on the Japan-related MOS talk page. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 01:37, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
