Japan uses a different timesystem than most other countries as they use 24:00, 25:00, 26:00. instead of 00:00, 01:00 and 02:00.

It's very clear that 08.07.2005 is the right date in this case. Especially official pages often list the "wrong" dates and don't include times, making it harder to spot such cases. It's recommended to check a Tv schedule with times like http://cal.syoboi.jp if possible.

===Romanisation===
===Anime titles - official titles===
[[AniDB Definition:Romanisation|Romanisation the AniDB way]]
This type is meant to ONLY be used for titles from official releases of the anime, not your own or fansubbers' translations. Use 'synonym' for unofficial versions and other variations.
 
Official titles can be historical - from past discontinued releases or television airings, as well as (non-bootlegged) VHS or DVD. If there are multiple official titles from different releases, add the newest/commonest only as 'official title' and others as synonyms.
 
Always provide a source for this when doing a creq.


===official english titles===
===Episode titles===
If it's licensed go check the page of the licensor or the actual episodes from the R1 material.

==Links in URL fields==
==Links in URL fields==
AniDB does not allow links to pages which offer direct downloads of copyrighted, protected, or otherwise illegal content. This includes, but is not limited to, pages which offer BitTorrent downloads. So please make sure that you don't add URLs (i.e. for anime or groups) which link to such pages. If the home page of a group links to BitTorrent pages, but doesn't offer any BitTorrent downloads itself, a link to the group's main page is acceptable.  
Official Japanese pages for anime only. Official includes any of the companies that were involved in the production of the given anime.
Do not link to a BT tracker page as a group's website.
