One more note for the road, now that the actual translation is officially released.

A lot of item, attribute, and weapon translations can easily be adjusted because I planned ahead of time and used templates for these sorts of things, but things like Research Files

While (subjectively) minor things like skill names and descriptions, buffs/debuffs, charge skill names, game terms, etc. etc. don't necessarily need it, we feel that our translations of large pieces of lore like Research Files should be preserved. Taking the Yugioh wiki(a) approach (especially with Mekk-Knight Avram), we can preserve all three copies of the Research Files:
* the original, Japanese text
* our translations of the original, Japanese text
* LifeWonder's translation/localization team's official English text.
We can take it a step forward and somehow go through the thick and thin of including both Traditional and Simplified Chinese copies, and translations from those, but that's going *far* too above and beyond for something as simple as making sure lore is conveyed properly.
I hope that anyone that does tamper with the Research (Investigation) Files pays attention and preserves our translations, even as much as to comment them out. I'm aiming to use a simple template that I can format better later on with the [[Template:Translations:Research_File]] template. You can find examples of this in [[Moritaka]] and [[Ashigara]]. As for updating each housamo's files, it'll be an on-demand basis as it usually is (they'll get done when someone feels like it, or asks). I'll take it upon myself to prioritize limited units (event units and variants), as those units aren't nearly as accessible as other units.
