Welcome to WikiProject Tokusatsu, a WikiProject that aims to organize, expand, clean up, and guide tokusatsu-related articles. If you would like to participate, you can simply start by editing any tokusatsu pages, or join the project below and/or contribute to the discussion on the talk page.

You may also be interested in joining our parent project, WikiProject Japan, which is dedicated to all Japanese articles on Wikipedia.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProjects and Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices.

Scope

The scope of the project includes all Japanese tokusatsu productions and any adaptations of them in other languages. More specifically, the project will include:

As well as their English language adaptations:

While not specifically part of the project (as such articles are not focused on tokusatsu), the following topics should be looked into as well:

Our scope does not include:

Guidelines, layouts and advice

Official guidelines and advice

We strive to comply with all Wikipedia guidelines. The ones here are listed for convenience and also may be particularly helpful when editing tokusatsu-related articles:

The Japanese language

Utilize the {{Nihongo}} template instead of the makeshift one (English and then kanji/kana in parenthesis followed by romaji in italics). If the katakana or kanji is unknown, check the page at the Japanese Wikipedia (日本語のウィキペディア, Nihongo no Uikipidīa).

Power Rangers

  • Episodes should not have their own article (this is not a catch-all; major exceptions include Day of the Dumpster and possibly some others). They should be put in a "List of xxx episodes" article.
  • The tables on Power Rangers articles should be phased out entirely. They should be replaced with a terse character section, describing the character, such as sections at Mighty Morphin Power Rangers#The Power Rangers, GoGo Sentai Boukenger#Characters, and Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger#Characters. No colored text should be utilized in this process. The only thing that should be linked to are the following:
    • The character's section in a separate article or the character's article
    • An article on the actor who plays said character.
  • Create a common and consistent outline to be used for each individual Power Rangers series
    • All series articles should include Synopsis, Characters, Arsenal, Zords, and Episodes (and under these common titles)
    • Reach a consensus to either create/expand other "common" sections featured in only a couple series (including Production History, Uniqueness of the Series) or remove/integrate the information into other sections.
