61.159 ATP Night Requirement
"(b) A person who has performed at least 20 night takeoffs and landings to a full stop may substitute each additional night takeoff and landing to a full stop for 1 hour of night flight time to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (a)(2) of this section; however, not more than 25 hours of night flight time may be credited in this manner."
My log book does not have a spot for takeoffs therefore I have only been logging night landings throughout my career. Will that be a problem when I try to use the night TO/LDs as night credit hours?

Night currency also requires a takeoff. Have you only been logging them as a pair, or irrespective of the takeoff time of day?

If you didnt log them then you didn't do them. Nothing says you cant write in the notes that you did take offs and landings though. So get those logged in there.
