Hi, Welcome to Wiktionary. Thanks for your contributions for Japanese, we need more of them around here. Japanese entries are complicated so I want to help show you the ropes. Basically you should use this format for nouns in hiragana like ささら:


==Japanese==

===Noun===
{{ja-noun|h|rom=}} 

# {{ja-def|}}

As you can see, we use {{ja-noun}} for common nouns and {{ja-def}} as a special link to the main page for each word.

For example, take けんせつ:

==Japanese==

===Noun===
{{ja-noun|h|rom=kensetsu}} 

# {{ja-def|建設}} construction
# {{ja-def|兼摂}} concurrent post

As you can see けんせつ doesn't exist yet. You're welcome to create it if you want.

We usually treat hiragana pages like that or romaji pages as sort of disambiguation pages, so the definitions are minimal and most information is on the page with the kanji form.

I hope that helps! Drop me a line if you have any questions.
