Wow, that's a lot of words. :)

as you can see, I have quite a lot of ideas to optimise the way RoB Wikia has been doing things and make it simpler for new contributors but not being fully conversant with the whole mw API (and the Wikia customisations), I have no idea if my optimizations are even possible Since I have zero knowledge of the game, all I can say is that your ideas seem to make sense. As for the question of it being possible or not, I can't say. It's probably one of those situations where you won't know until you try.

is there a way to prevent text written in Japanese from being translated? I don't know of any case where small amounts of Japanese text has been (automatically?) translated on an English wiki. That said, the only experience I have with this is converting an old infobox to the new portable infobox, where one of the rows listed the character's Japanese name.

As you continue to get deeper into things that are specific to the game, I may be less helpful. But if you run into a technical problem and want me to have a look, just be as specific as possible when describing the issue, and I'll help if I can.
