According to [[wikipedia:Mahjong|Wikipedia]], mahjong can be written as '''mahjong''', '''mahjongg''', '''mah-jong''', '''mah-jongg''', '''mah jong''', '''mah jongg''' or even '''majiang'''. We should decide which spelling to use and apply it to the wiki overall. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 06:44, 6 October 2007 (EDT)

:'''Mahjong'''. It's the most used name. '''[[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back!]]''' I think.

:Yakuman DS is one of many titles in the Yakuman series.  Yakuman DS is the first to include Mario characters.  I would speculate that Yakuman player was a generic guy replaced by the Mario characters in this version.  Therefore, he is, as far as I know, not having seen Yakuman player in screens and videos for YDS, that he falls out of our range of coverage, and therefore he is not mentioned on the Wiki. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 16:08, 1 February 2009 (EST)
::The Yakuman Player is from the Game Boy game ''Yakuman'' released in 1989 in Japan [http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n02/dmg/mjj/index.html]. This game isn't Mario-themed, so the player isn't relevant for the article, but it might be worth mentioning that ''Yakuman DS'' isn't the first mahjong game by Nintendo, there are [http://nindb.classicgaming.gamespy.com/fran-yakuman.shtml quite a few]. By the way, I noticed that a Wikipedia author had [[wikipedia:Yakuman DS|stolen]] the article in February this year (no mentioning of Super Mario Wiki). The Wikipedia article is pretty much identical. --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 07:59, 5 March 2009 (EST)
:::Ha - our sourcing policy is different from theirs, so anything they <s>steal</s> share from us is going to be considered bad writing for them. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 15:10, 5 March 2009 (EST)
==Additional unlockable playable characters?==
Are all of those characters really unlockable for play? How? As far as I've figured out I can't, and the Japanese Wikipedia article places all of the "unlockable" characters firmly in the "non-playable" category and lists Toad as an additional playable character instead. [[User:Jamar|Jamar]] 11:49, 25 June 2009 (EDT)
==Crossover?==
On the [[Mario (franchise)]] article, it lists this game as a crossover game. But if it was a crossover, there would need to be another franchise, no? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
:As stated above on this very talk page, there are other ''Yakuman'' games without Mario characters, so I suppose the other franchise would be ''Yakuman''.--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 09:54, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
::''Yakuman'' is a common term in Japanese mahjong rules as far as I know, though, and there are [http://www.gamefaqs.com/search/index.html?game=yakuman&platform=0&s=s several games] bearing the ''Yakuman'' name that were not made by Nintendo. I'm not sure, but wouldn't it almost be like saying that ''Mario Tennis'' is a crossover between the ''Mario'' and ''Tennis'' series because it is a tennis game? --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 19:51, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
