Does shadow or anyone else have a list of names in both Romaji and Kanji? I'm especially bad with names, so anything which helps with them would be good. Otherwise I'll run the risk of trying to take a name and translate it as the kanji it's made made from, which could be...interesting.

(Although I must say, the massive amount of Furigana sure makes things easier. Yay furigana!!)

When you have a doubt about a name the best solution is to use google or wikipedia.
For example: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A1% ... 3%E3%83%89
メアリー: Mary
Chief Butler: Nicolai Pavurof (ニコライ パブロフ)

EDIT: Vaelis said go with "Pavlov"....hmmm...it could work...but I'm getting the feel for like, "Karkarof" (HP) That kind of name here....since the 'ten ten' marks aren't over the last "fu" symbol, it doesn't really have a "vv" sound....hmmm....what do you guys think?
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%A4% ... D%E3%83%95
パブロフ: Pavlov

These should probably be all the human names covered so far?

http://www.baka-tsuki.net/project/index ... guidelines It's a list being updated when a new name or something pops up.

Also, I had that problem when I first started...I was wondering why they were talking about things like "And Sierra turned her gaze towards the battle formation." Which I would change to like "And as if prepared for battle, Sierra turned her gaze." That was until it got ridiculus, and the word was jumping up everywhere, so I looked at the front of the book, and realized it was talking about "Jin" the boy's name, not the meaning "battle formation." So then went back and fixed sentences :)

Read this Krikit
Dear Krikit,
It has been brought to my attention that your list of names is not fully updated. The previous letter(post) I sent has some names that are not found in your list yet. For example, Mary/Marie, Nicolai Pavurof/Pavlov and the Shamshirs. As for the list of places, perhaps you could include their school name, the names of the different dorms for example? I hope that this letter(post) will be of some help to you.
Yours Sincerely,
Shadow

Dear Shadow,
I wish to start by offering you my gratitude for directing me to a lapse in the outdated naming conventions. As to the previous posted letter, I have taken the liberty of recording and transcribing the names absent from the previous outline into the current draft on the format style page. The names of the Academy and it's gender-specific respective dormitories has been updated along with the names of the Shamshir's, those under the authority of the Zadou house, and a few select others. Again, thank you for bringing this matter to light, so that I could transcribe the proper and new information.
Yours Sincerely,
Krikit

I have some time tomorrow night to scan in Chap 3 and 4, then start on Volume 2. You should go back and redo the chapters with my scans. I think they came out pretty well. 8)

I've put the script for chapter 5 on the wiki.
http://www.baka-tsuki.net/project/index ... 1_Chapter5

If people could edit it to improve it before I typeset it, it would be great.

The more I look at this idea of wiki manga, the weirder it seems to me...

^^"

To edit and improve on it... I think they may need the actual text?
