I have complete canon knowledge, so I will be mostly helping in that regard, though I will try to help with SPAG and such whenever I can. You already have my e-mail, so please shoot the GDoc my way.
I would need people for beta-reading my newest mission. the setting involved is Persona 4, although canon knowledge isn't an obligation. As usual, I'll address any issue raised during the beta, be it SpaG, flow, characterization, PPC knowledge failures...
Just email me by clicking my name, or post your candidature (and if needed, your address) here.
P.S.: I have an additional question. Does miscapitalization like this, 'HardRic', spawn a mini?

I decided to track down a playthrough of Persona 4. I'm up to Kanji's dungeon (in SuperJeenius' Let's Play), so I might be able to help with canon stuff as well as SPaG, flow, and whatever else you want. You still have my email, right? :)
Don't worry, it will be more than enough canon knowledge.
You can probably go digging in the Board archives and find the relevant discussion.
I didn't write the scene about it, because I wanted to be sure about it. Thanks for your answer.
The "relevant discussion" was about minis like "hardric", where "Hardric" would be a canon character’s name. While some Boarders like to catch as much minis as possible, others frown upon this habit, because minis are spawned by misspelling a canon character’s name, but "not capitalizing where it is required, as in the first letter of a name" is just bad grammar, not a misspelling of the name.
Are you sure that the mistake in "HardRic" is "randomly capitalizing a letter in the middle of a word", where the word is meant to be canon character Hardric’s name? Whether this spawns a mini may be debatable.
Just as well, the mistake could be "omitting the necessary space between first and last name", where "Hard Ric" was never meant to be the canon character Hardric. This certainly wouldn’t spawn a mini; it would spawn an additional OC who may just sit around moping because the narration doesn’t mention him ever again.
Actually, "Hard Ric" sounds more like a nickname, and a person nicknamed Hard Ric (or Hard Rick?) would probably not be contented just sitting around moping. What would he do left to his own devices? What should the agents do with him? Use your imagination and have more fun than with just another mini. (Okay, the last part doesn’t help you, because the miscapitalization you’re actually dealing with certainly isn’t "HardRic".)

"YasoInaba", which is supposed to be only one word. The letter which is capitalized is the first one of the town's usual name.
Looks like a random capitalisation charge to me.
