That's what I thought, just verifying. I try not to rely on wiki too much tho, since a lot of the information is shifty. I found another great site on gyoza tho a while back. Mebbe I can dig it up again and post it here.

i would imagine there are several good websites for info...of course the flavor profile might be a little different in japanese gyoza as opposed to chinese potstickers...just as it would be different in korea....

they're good, they're steamed, they're fried, they're the apple of my eye.

bacon wrapped around asparagus....those beer mugs hit the spot after being stuck on the plane for 11 hours or so and then stuck on the bus that dropped us off at the hotel (friday night tokyo traffic is a drag man!)
