	Comments:	I agree with Marcus. A short explanation is probably enough, though. On an unrelated note, should single letter abbreviations be tagged [abbr]? We agreed that acronyms aren't abbreviations in Japanese. Can the same be said of letters?

	Comments:	"S rank" doesn't make much sense except to the select few who play Japanese video games though, while this is more widely used/understood in Japanese.
