On {{SITENAME}}, we take most of our information directly from the ''[[Rhythm Heaven (series)|Rhythm Heaven]]'' games. However, in some cases, we also take information from less known features such as [[Reading Material]], information from versions of the games in other languages, guide books and magazines. In order to ensure that all information covered is official, and not speculation by fans, we need to ''cite our sources''.
