Hi! It seems that we have similar interests (Japanese art/history). Perhaps we could work together on an article someday or share resources or something (some of the stuff I have access to I listed ]). Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you need anything of it or if I can be of any other help with an article. I also have access to questia, credo references and highbeam. BTW, I recently wrote ] which I hope to nominate at ] at some point. It would be good if somebody who knows about the topic could have a second look at it. Also I did not include any Japanese sources such as those listed on top of ] (after "RS:"). If you have the time to take a look or even to expand the article with info from the Japanese sources that would be great, if not that's fine as well. No worries. ] (]) 09:53, 16 October 2012 (UTC) | |||

== Re: 'Xinjiang' in ] == | |||
== Regarding the licensing of Tolkien's later works == | |||
I thought I'd let you know that I reverted your edits in ] because I neither saw a point nor an improvement. I say the same thing in my edit summary but with more words; feel free to see my edit and lmk if you've any problems. I sound pretty rude in this talkpage section—I'm not ''trying ''to be mean—I just keep these short for everyone's sake and it sounds especially curt in this one; I apologise. —] (]) 12:57, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
Hello, We had a discussion a little while ago on the talk page of the ]. I don't suppose it matters terribly much any more, as the discussion seems to have moved on and much of the introductory section of that Article seems to have settled down. Nevertheless, I thought you might be interested in reading this on Christopher Tolkien's attitude towards the use of his father's works for the big screen, and why he refuses to license those works not sold in 1969. Also, this incredibly rare with Christopher himself sheds a little more light on the matter. I hope you had a pleasant New Year. Wishing you all the very best for 2013. Michael --] (]) 12:42, 8 January 2013 (UTC) | |||
:{{ping|Peter coxhead}} You thanked me for my edit and apparently chose to let it stand for four days thereafter, implying that you saw the benefit of the edit. I think the benefit is pretty self-evident even disregarding my edit summar. What do you make of the above? If the majority of third-party input is negative, I'd be happy to drop the stick and just agree to disagree, but I get the impression this is not the case here. Apart from you, I can only assume that a not-insignificant proportion of the 57 "page watchers who visited recent edits" were also aware of my edit and either approved of it or at least didn't disapprove. The lack of a coherent explanation for the revert, however, implies that it was made primarily because of a subjective ] interpretation. ] (<small>]]</small>) 13:06, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
::Well, I agree that the great majority of our readers are not going to know where Xinjiang is, so by itself it's not helpful, and readers should not have to follow wikilinks if a short gloss can be provided. I guess a compromise could be something like "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)"? ] (]) 13:20, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
::All interpretations of ] are going to be subjective. I did say that I thought the vaguer 'northwestern China' was less ideal than simply 'Xinjiang' with a wikilink in my edit summary; however I should've made it clear in my edit that I do have a reason specific to the context of the paragraph for choosing the latter. You make an understandable point about 'southern Kazakhstan' in your most recent edit summary, but to be clear 'northwest China' is a more vague term when compared to the former in this context—which is strictly geographical. 'Hills of southern Kazakhstan' unambiguously only refers to the hills in the Kazakh ] in the far south of the country, the same mountain range that spans across much of the rest of hilly Central Asia, while what conventionally constitutes 'northwestern China' contains multiple mountain ranges with different climates (Tian Shan, ], ], the mountain ranges of the ] and the ]). Only Xinjiang's hills (the Chinese Tian Shan) were the native range of the wild apple tree is the impression I get from glossing over the article text. This makes 'northwestern China' a decidedly vaguer term to refer specifically to the Chinese Tian Shan, in Xinjiang, than southern Kazakhstan is for the Kazakh Tian Shan—so it is not an apples to apples comparison. In summation, "Xinjiang, China" is precise and unambiguous both in the geographic sense for that paragraph and also to the layman (I explain this is my second point more) while also being the shortest possible; "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)" does remedy all my concerns, but so did the first phrasing and it didn't need to be as wordy or precise and preserved ]; and I hope we can stay off "northwestern China" with what I just said. | |||
::Secondly, also for you {{ping|Peter coxhead|p=}}, I agree that usually it would not be ideal that something is only put in proper context to readers when they click into another article, but here in this paragraph it is straightforward to infer from the context that Xinjiang is a place in Central Asia and it has hills where the wild apple tree grew/grows. Which is more than sufficient context for this article and that paragraph about the original range of the wild apple tree, is what I was saying. If a reader wants to know more about the Xinjiang they easily follow the wikilink. I am opposed to a pipelink on 'northwestern China' like it is rn, because of ]—I don't see the point in pipelinking when "Xinjiang, China" is concise, precise, unambiguous, and follows link clarity. I am also not in support of either "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)" when "Xinjiang, China" is on the table and perfect in my eyes. —] (]) 15:12, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
:::I think you missed my point about IFITAINTBROKE -- it's subjective and so is ''not'' a good rationale to unilaterally revert an edit that other third parties have already (tacitly) approved of. And speaking of subjectivity, your definition of "northwest" is definitely not something most readers would agree with, as most of the mountains/ranges you refer to are ''kinda'' in "northwestern China", but only if you take "China" to refer to ] as opposed to the modern political entity. Almost all of our readers would consider the places you list to be in north-central or even just central China, and ''definitely not'' "central Asia". "Xinjiang", to most of our reader, just sounds like "some place in China", and almost none of them would read "northwest China" as meaning "northwest of the Han Chinese homeland that constitutes the southeastern portion of the modern country called China" (and even those who, like you and me, know about "China proper" should be able to tell from "central Asia" that it is talking about Xinjiang and not, say, Shaanxi). | |||
:::I'm not sure where you hail from originally, but I can tell you from experience that Japanese tourism companies often like to refer to ] as being in "west Japan" because that's how they talk to other Japanese people, because the Japanese school social studies textbooks (which of course focus on "]" and "]" rather than using a ruler or compass to establish where the "western half" and "eastern half" of the Japanese archipelago is), and oftentimes it's my job to (try to) tell them that foreign tourists who don't know about Japanese history and culture are more likely to look at a map and consider Kyoto to be in central Japan rather than western Japan. English Misplaced Pages articles are supposed to be written with a "general reader" in mind, and general readers don't know anything more than the tourists in my above analogy. (I have to imagine that no sane tour director in China would use the phrase ] and assume that American and European tourists know what it actually means without an explanation -- our articles on China can use it, but preferably with language like our ] article that makes it clear that it is talking about an official designation and not objective placement on the map. Our article on apples is ''not'' an article on China, and no reader is going to assume we are using GOC-designated region names rather than general-use English. And again, even those who are familiar with the Chinese government's terminology should be able tell from the reference to "central Asia", since no one considers Shaanxi to be in central Asia.) | |||
:::] (<small>]]</small>) 15:54, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
::::BTW, the above argument for using "Xinjiang" (that "northwestern China" includes other mountains to which the statement doesn't apply) could almost certainly be turned on its head as an argument ''against'' using "Xinjiang", since I strongly suspect its not "all mountains in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region" that are being talked about. (That said, I just checked and couldn't find where the information was taken from.) ] (<small>]]</small>) 16:13, 21 October 2020 (UTC) | |||

Hi, can I suggest you only create new pages or edit those with zero people disagreeing with you. Though basically an intolerable imposition, the Encyclopedia is nearer the start than the end and it still leaves plenty of pages current and future. Clearly you have lots of enemies here and likely others who will try to take you out via noticeboards rather than engage in meaningful discussion. It's basically the course I follow.

<!-- == WP:AN == | |||
:{{ping|Maculosae tegmine lyncis}} I think I know what you're referring to, and it has nothing to do with creating new pages. You might also note that, in the discussion in question, I was quite clear several times that I would be happy to agree to disagree if I wasn't in the clear majority of uninvolved editors. The "fight" wasn't even mine to begin with -- one editor with whom I have a history of agreements reverted another editor with whom I have a history of disagreements, but in this case it was my opinion that the latter editor was clearly in the right. If you disagree, please make a coherent argument to that effect on the article talk page. That being said, per the below I'd like to disengage from the discussion in question anyway. | |||
:I see that there's also an ANI notice above this. I guess it was a mistake to edit the article in question in the manner that I did.{{ping|Nardog}} I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings. This was not my intention, and I am honestly quite surprised that this found its way onto ANI. I had a sincere belief that your edit harmed the article, and the fact that another editor whose edits to that article over the last month I have generally ''dis''agreed with seemed to share my belief led me to believe that it was highly likely the majority of Wikipedians would as well. I am on a self-imposed ANI page-ban for the purpose of avoiding drama, so I will not respond to you there or interact with this dispute about the IPA in that particular article's opening sentence again. If you still believe you are in the right and no other editors decided to revert you, you have my blessing in reinserting the disputed content. | |||

Regarding the discussion at AN: it might be advisable to recuse yourself from the debate for a while. You've made your case (extensively), but your recent contributions are starting to look a little... vindicative? over-zealous? truculent? The community will deal with Tristan noir in whatever way seems fit - that might involve anything from an indef ban to freeing him from all editing restrictions. Piling on now that your side of the issues has been resolved might be seen as excessive - I recognise that you feel strongly about this, but I'd recommend that you simply go off and enjoy editing, and leave the admins to wade through the mire of debate over Tristan. ] ]‍] 09:07, 4 February 2013 (UTC) | |||

Hi, thanks for archiving your Talk, it loads properly now - there must have been something triggering my erratic filter. Sorry to see you dealing with various socks. But Cúchullain's advice to keep cool is sound (his advice usually is). One way of relaxing would be to move around a bit more and look at MOS, AfDs, RMs, outside area of personal expertise. Many of the same problems you've noticed hitting Japanese topics are actually sub-problems of wider editing issues. Anyway, the main reason for this message is I was quite surprised to see a full clean DVD cover has been accepted into http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ed/Uzak.jpg (it would not be accepted at Commons I think).

:I'd certainly be very wary of continuing to change the article.

The references may be wrong about jigai being a specific form of suicide for women, but they certainly meet the standard for reliable sources (I've used all three myself from time to time).

Thing is, the English Misplaced Pages is concerned primarily with the use of terms like this ''in English''; whilst I don't for a moment dispute your claim that "自害" refers to suicide generally in Japan, the fact is that in English, ''jigai'' appears to have the primary meaning of "suicide by samurai-class women" - leastways, that's what English-language sources appear to support. To offer a vaguely related example, whilst our article on ] explains the term's original Cantonese meaning as "work together", the primary definition in the article is "dedicated or enthusiastic", because even though 工合 has a different meaning in China, ''that's what "gung ho" means to English speakers''. ''Jigai'', being a far less-common term, is harder to call, but the fact remains that we do give precedence to the concept as it's expressed in English sources. ] ]‍] 13:32, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | |||
::::I was coming here to say the same thing about reverting. Elvenscout, you really don't want this to come back on you, and it most certainly will. In the future, I suggest contacting an admin as soon as you see a new IP hounding you or acting up. Then they can block the sock and semi-protect the article if need be. You can let me know, though my involvement with Joshu at ''Ugetsu'' means I shouldn't do the blocking or protecting myself; ] and ] have been helpful in responding to the issue, and of course you can go to ANI.--] ]/] 15:45, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | |||
:::::Understood. On the ] issue, I made the mistake of thinking I could discuss the problem myself. And as I have said a few times already, I still was not ''completely'' convinced of sockpuppetry, and I have a habit of taking AGF a bit too far: I didn't want to request any assistance until after the IP had made a blatant 3RR violation. ] (]) 15:50, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | |||
::::::That show of good faith is commendable. However, this is clearly Joshu evading his block through sockpuppetry, and he's using those socks to engage in further disruption through edit warring and stacking RMs. Even if blocked, if the IP really isn't Joshu they'll have a chance to explain themselves or create an account. Additionally, some folks (like Salvio) will have additional tools they can use to determine one way or another. I'd just operate on the assumption that an IP that shows up behaving like Joshu is probably Joshu.--] ]/] 16:31, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | |||

I'd like to request your expert eyes on the article ]. There has been a surge of media reporting on the man (particularly with the upcoming Netflix anime about him), and there's some back-and-forth in the article's history with respect to him being a samurai or not. There's the book ''African Samurai: The True Story of a Legendary Black Warrior in Feudal Japan'' by Thomas Lockley and Geoffrey Girard about him, if that's any help (Lockley is often interviewed by the media for the aforementioned pieces). I'm only getting bits of the book's info on Google Books, but it says something about him being a '']'': "It is not known exactly which rank Yasuke held, but it would probably have been equivalent to hatamoto. The hatamoto saw to the lord’s needs, handling everything from finance to transport, communications to trade. They were also the bodyguards and pages to the warlord, traveling with him and spending their days in his company." This put a red flag for me that some of the nuance is lost in the media, which often uncritically calls him a samurai. | |||

:{{re|Goszei}} I might take a look, but (i) I'm not that familiar with the Azuchi-Momoyama period to begin with, (ii) Japanese encyclopedias generally don't have standalone entries on him (which both makes it difficult for me to go about preliminary research in the way I normally do and makes me skeptical about the standalone notability of Yasuke as a historical figure, at least as a figure of ''Japanese'' history), and (iii) I suspect recent interest in him may be politically motivated: white power-brokers in America and Europe trying to play up the importance of an African man to pre-modern Japanese history to avoid addressing systemic issues in their own countries at the expense of people in "the far off Orient". As a white European in Japan (who by necessity must frequently interact with other white westerners who, despite living in Japan, still get most of their information on the country's history from American popular media) this topic makes me quite uncomfortable in the current climate—and this isn't even getting into the abominable goings on in Atlanta last month and the aftermath thereof. I am inclined to say the best move would be to wait until the hype around the show dies down, then go in and excise any information attributed to popular media sources not backed up by professional scholarship. | |||
:As an aside, from everything I've read, even the word "samurai" is problematic: professional Japanologists seem to prefer to talk about "the warrior class", meaning that "samurai" is essentially ]. As for Japanese usage, ''Kojien'' gives the primary meaning of "same as ''saburai'', i.e. someone who serves a lord closely" (by which definition it would be a truism, but practically meaningless, to say that Yasuke was a "samurai"), and below that says that in the ] (the period in which Yasuke lived) the word was used to distinguish certain people from common peasants (in that case, it's a truism that Yasuke and other foreigners were neither samurai nor common peasants). | |||

'''Retarget''' It seems like anyone who knew about the automated retargeting of double-redirects could have anticipated that the bot wouldn't know to fix the said redirects once the vandal edit was reverted, but was this all a long-game plan to TFD the legit redirect {{noredirect|3.11}} that I created back in 2013 as part of a mass-TFD of others that another NZ IP (the same person?) had caused to be created in 2019? All of these TFDs were opened today by the same person, and the 2019 vandalism geolocates to the same place. Call me paranoid, but this is super-fishy. I also got a notification that {{user|Polyamorph}} "reviewed" the 3.11 page at roughly the same time as the above TFD. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? ] (<small>]]</small>) 16:08, 24 May 2021 (UTC) | |||
Interesting. I don't like the use of Latin tags to browbeat other editors myself, and in particular when it isn't easily recognizable as his use of Argumentum "vocatis ollam ollæ nigra" was - I couldn't find that anywhere until he said it meant "physician, heal theyself", usually | |||
Cura te ipsum or medicus cura teipsum - any comments on this or ideas as to where his version came from? | |||
Looking at some of your other comments, at Talk BVM I agree with you but Johnbod's a good editor, I doubt that was a personal attack. As for your problem with 'most scholars', I've had that problem also. It is often very obvious but also hard to source when challenged, as it frequently is. | |||

:Thing is, in the recent cases I have a Yale professor directly stating "most scholars believe (Peter didn't write either of the epistles attributed to him)". Anyway, regarding the Latin tag: I of course had little difficulty figuring out what M... thought he was saying, but it still didn't apply to half the arguments he was using it to dismiss. The phrase was apparently "coined" by a particular online advocate of Jehovah's Witnesses within the last few months (you can check my Google links for the evidence). To explain much further would be ] the now indeffed user, so I'll hold back, but I'm apparently not the first person to make the connection between the username "M..." and this person, as a Google search of the two names will indicate. (He used "M..." as a pseudonym on other forums than Misplaced Pages.) Note I did ''no'' "opposition research" here: I was confused as to whether this phrase actually exists, and when I Googled it the ''only'' results were all tied to the same named Jehovah's Witness. Regarding BVM: yeah, Johnbod may be a good editor but responding to with shows at best a lack of good-faith. It would be understandable if I was just some anonymous troll who appeared out of nowhere and started attacking articles on Roman Catholicism (although I'd say my edit history is friendlier to Catholics than to, say, Evangelicals), but I've been on Misplaced Pages ''longer'' than him. ] (<small>]]</small>) 10:02, 18 August 2013 (UTC) | |||

:Assuming you mean RFD rather than TFD, then it doesn't strike me as problematic at all. When someone spots one bad redirect to a page (either stumbling across it or seeing it at RfD) it's not unusual to look and see whether there are any other ones that also need looking at - the connection between "3.11" and the target is not at all obvious to me I've never seen it referred to as such and it doesn't get any prominence at all in my google results. Assuming that someone in Australia/New Zealand is seeing something similar to me in the UK, then sending it to redirects for ''discussion'' is perfectly reasonable. As for the vandalism, not everybody thinks (or even knows) to check for any collateral damage when reverting a page move. ] (]) 16:32, 24 May 2021 (UTC) | |||

:{{ping|Elizium23}} I cannot speak to Natemup's behaviour in the area of Roman Catholicism specifically, but when I interacted with him on ] and ], I found his sourcing standards to be woefully inadequate (on the former, he insisted on citing popular media sources even when they disagree with sources written by specialists in the relevant field, while on the latter he cited ''no'' sources for the better part of a month before eventually , while repeatedly vandalized the opening sentence of a relatively prominent article to make a ]). Despite his own edits to these two articles leaving a lot to be desired, he has repeatedly accused me and others of "vandalism" and sockpuppetry (he repeatedly conflated multiple users with accounts with at least two and probably more IP users and implicitly with each other -- I can get the diffs if you need them), and even made what looked like a threat. I am not sure if his involvement in these pages is related to Catholicism: he seems to be subtly pushing the ahistorical idea that the Jesuits in particular and the Catholic Church in general was always opposed to slavery of Africans, and seems to be either ignorant of or willfully pretending to be ignorant of the Catholic Church's blessing being granted to Portuguese and Spanish colonial ambitions in Asia and the Americas, but it's very minor and I might be reading too much in. I am still, frankly, concerned about the possibility of further repercussions for me personally and the articles I have worked on (his behaviour on ] implies he has no problem vandalizing even a highly visible Japanese article for no purpose other than "revenge" against Japan-focused editors who undermined him), and I would rather not involve myself any further, but I can be reached by email. ] (<small>]]</small>) 05:23, 16 June 2021 (UTC) | |||

I appreciate his behaviour violates a number of our guidelines, but he is a relatively new editor and you've taken exactly the wrong approach to educating him.

:Personally, I think it is super-suspicious that, when someone says "The OP logged out to file this report, and hasn't disclosed the name of their account", an accounted editor comes along and assumes, without justification, that the account being referred to is their own, but I didn't even say that I found this suspicious until like the third time it happened in a comment in which I was pinged (and the ''first'' time I was pinged wasn't even the first time it had happened within that same thread). | |||

== SPI comments == | |||
{{collapse top}} | |||
:I wasn't aware of changes made to the historical Yasuke page, but I'm very much aware of a few editors trying to remove any mention of "samurai" (including the removal of "samurai conflict"). The truth of the matter is that majority of samurai were of the noble class, but not all of them. A notable example happens to be the most famous one in ], who was born the son of a farmer and became samurai, general, and daimyo himself. And Hideyoshi's rise in status, same as Yasuke's time, was during Nobunaga's time. So the idea of "Yasuke can't be samurai because he wasn't of noble birth" is 100% flawed when you literally had it happen in Hideyoshi. I've seen people play "what they really mean" and try to discredit sources when it comes to the issue and if sources say that he was a samurai and historians say this as well, then it should be a foregone conclusion to add sources. If you have a good source that says it, by all means add it. Removing "samurai" or wholesale removal of sources to reflect a non-consensus POV or bullying a POV push is not even close to right. | |||
:As far as this article goes, the source material states that he is samurai, the creator said he is samurai, the sources say that he is samurai, and so on So any removal of that or sources reflecting that is just wrongheaded especially when the sources back up the source material. Stormshadows00 19:11, 29 July 2021 (UTC) | |||
:::{{tq|editors trying to remove any mention of "samurai" (including the removal of "samurai conflict")}} Please do not make disruptive, inflammatory remarks like this. I did not remove any classification of the character in this show as a samurai ''because the show is fiction'' and the writers of the show can portray their characters however they like. I removed awkward prose because, you know, it's awkward.

:::Stormshadows00 is completely correct here. I read in WG Beasley's "The Meiji Restoration" (page 33) that daimyos could grant samurai status to commoners for a wide variety of reasons. Historian Thomas Lockely has written in his books that Yasuke was almost certainly granted such samurai status. But the idea that samurai status is strictly hereditary is obviously wrong. Constantine Nomikos Vaporis, a very prominent historian, notes in "Samurai : an encyclopedia of Japan's cultured warriors" that there were many parts of Japan where most of samurai were those who recently purchased their rank. In Tosa during the late-Tokugawa period, the large majority of the samurai had purchased the rank within their own lifetimes. Anyway, the reason why every available source describes Yasuke as a samurai is because he obviously was a samurai. Katemeshi101 06:49, 30 July 2021 (UTC) | |||

My ]ping the Utada discussion to WP:LGBT was actually a complete accident -- the was really just a general question that, if I had got a straight answer up front, would have made it easier to argue coherently. Being a straight cisgender male who has lived in Japan since around the time Twitter was invented, most of what I know about "preferred pronouns" comes from randomly consumed pop culture rather than any academic study or the lived experience of myself or anyone I know personally. It's therefore difficult for me to understand the way of thinking of someone who is not an Utada fan but came to that article because of an interest in LGBTQ+ topics.<small> And for the sake of full disclosure, under the influence of some friends who are much bigger J-Pop fans than me, I bought a few of Utada's CDs from Book Off back in the early 2010s and enjoyed them, and given Utada's status as a household name in Japan I would have been familiar with her/their work regardless, but I wouldn't consider myself a "fan".</small> | |||

An initial Googling brought up and as sources indicating that ''atashi'' is mainly used by women and "doesn't seem to be used by men". In ten years living in Japan, I don't think I've ever heard a man use ''atashi'' to describe themselves (unless one takes the transphobic view that transsexual women using feminine language to emphasize their gender are men in drag and "faking it"). Our article doesn't cite a source, anyway, and I think you're kinda turning ] on its head by demanding that I prove a negative ("no men ever use ''atashi''"): it is '''very''' female-coded, and is strong evidence that our subject either (a) doesn't care about pronouns one way or the other or (b) would prefer if Misplaced Pages and other media continue to use female pronouns. ] (<small>]]</small>) 06:54, 19 August 2021 (UTC) | |||

Needless to say, all of this is sub-optimal from a sourcing standpoint, but among Japanese-speakers it is ] that ''atashi'' is feminine (see also ]'s comment below), and the positive claim that it is sometimes used by men is what would need a reliable source under normal circumstances. | |||
::::::These are not normal circumstances, mind you: I am not trying to add to or take away from an article's content, but rather gathering evidence of various kinds in support of restoring the female pronouns/determiners in the article.

:::::::::@] "The modern version of Hepburn romanization requires the use of ''n'' regardless of the following letter, so you should use ''n'', unless the official name of the subject uses ''m''. Also you should determine the common name in reliable sources." This is a contradiction -- either we have a style guideline that requires the use of ''n'' under virtually all circumstances, or use the "common name" in "reliable sources". The fact is that what counts as a "reliable source" is pretty much up in the air. General interest books and magazines qualify as "reliable sources" for factual statements and the like, but they are noticeably less reliable than scholarly journals when it comes to the romanization of Japanese. Encyclopedia Britannica, unlike Misplaced Pages, has a strict style guideline that they stick to in any and all circumstances, even when every single other reliable source disagrees with them. However, Encyclopedia Britannica is also a more widely-used reliable source than the majority of sources that spell it "Gunma". And ], unlike the majority of noteworthy, encyclopedic topics related to Japan, is actually covered in a large number of English-language reliable sources -- what should we do when one or two semi-reliable books on the subject (or fan-sites, I guess would be lingo more related to your area of interest) in English spell it "]", but we can't possibly construct an encyclopedia article based on these? We need to use Japanese-language sources, and for this we need to romanize Japanese words and names, and insisting that we follow the one or two semi-reliable books/fan-sites in this romanization is '''ridiculous'''. Determining the "common name" in "reliable sources" is in most cases impossible, unless the subject has an official name in English. ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:54, 7 March 2014 (UTC) | |||

:::The original text said ''m'' is only "allowed" when it is part of an "official" name. I admit it's vague and can be interpreted a number of ways (why I plan on bringing it for discussion after the RM closes), but your interpretation based on COMMONNAME is not the most intuitive one, as indicated by the fact that virtually everyone on the Jinmu RM interprets COMMONNAME to refer only to subjects widely-known outside Japan, and virtually no one there interprets MOS-JA to say the same thing as COMMONNAME. In fact, MOS-JA '''should not''' say the same thing as COMMONNAME; we don't use romanization guidelines in cases where there is a COMMONNAME (try asking on WT:COMMONNAME like I did last August -- they all agree that COMMONNAME does not apply to articles not widely-known in the English-speaking world); MOS-JA is specifically for subjects that have no COMMONNAME. ] (<small>]]</small>) 17:00, 7 March 2014 (UTC) | |||

I'm pretty sure that the wording of my questions to the various ArbCom candidates just now would have been permissible even if BANEX did not cover questions to potential Arbitrators who may be assessing an appeal of a ban to which my question applies in the future. However, I feel fairly confident that it does apply, at least as much as my question on Beeblebrox's talk page (which, unlike my question to the ArbCom candidates, actually mentioned the other IBAN party by name six times). <small>And yeah, sorry about not getting around to posting ''that'' appeal yet. It was always a pretty low priority, and I haven't even been able to write any WAM articles this year, so it looks like it'll be another while.</small> ] (<small>]]</small>) 06:05, 23 November 2021 (UTC) | |||
== Historical Jesus == | |||
I couldn't find a way to properly phrase this as a question without simply saying "Would you support my appeal if I made it again at some point next year?", which doesn't feel appropriate. ]'s answer (courtesy ping) was excellent, but I'm kinda regretting not going further in on the specific details in my initial question (which, needless to say, was worded with deliberate vagueness). ] (<small>]]</small>) 08:29, 23 November 2021 (UTC) | |||
If you have the time, would you mind taking a look at ]? It's getting a bit tiresome to deal with fringe conspiracy theories by amateurs masquerading as "science".] (]) 12:59, 3 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:@]: I'll take a look at it, but I should tell you that I'm not an "expert" in the area. The recently-solved problems with the historicity article were primarily the quotes taken out of context and implying that scholars skeptical of any aspect of HJ research were mythicists. It's a lot muddier over on the Historical Jesus article, since there is actually scholarly debate on that subject, and quotations of scholars indicating they disagree with each other are not ipso facto ''mis''quotations cherry-picked to give a ''false'' impression that they disagree. ] (<small>]]</small>) 14:11, 3 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
::Absolutely, and I don't mind (quite the contrary) the opinions of scholars who disagree. My concern is the inclusion of amateurs with fringe theories being included. I have no intention to even suggest removing the criticism section, just the part of it that is not academic. As it is right now, a reader may get the impression that the criticism is scientific, and while some of it is, some is far closer to Dan Brown than to any actual academic expertise. What I want is to disentangle the academics from the conspiracy theorists and amateurs.] (]) 14:49, 3 October 2014 (UTC) | |||

== Request for mediation rejected == | |||
#{{ACE Question | |||
{{Ivmbox | |||
|Q=To clarify, I'm referring to an instance where an Arbitration case was nearing conclusion, and in the "Proposed decision" phase one of the findings of fact was {{tq|User X has hounded User Y}} (which passed) while one of the remedies was {{tq|User X: One-way interaction ban}}, which failed, resulting in an alternative solution {{tq|User X and User Y interaction banned}}, which passed. (There were other sanctions placed on both User X and User Y in the same arbitration case.) The hounding persisted for several months thereafter, with a combination of the two-way IBAN and a one-way TBAN on User Y being used as a shield, until the community separately applied the same TBAN to User X. Several years later, User Y (who I might as well disclose is me) found that people who were looking for an excuse to get under his skin would say "Look, he's got an IBAN!" and be unable to explain the context without violating the ban (and eventually being unable to participate in practically any community discussion because of fear of said IBAN being brought up out of the blue for seemingly no other reason than intimidation), and so was forced to appeal. In this case, voluntarily agreeing not to interact is a given, and since User X is still subject to the community TBAN from 90% of the articles User Y edits, interaction wouldn't be likely to begin with. Would you support repealing the ban solely to protect User Y from future "Look, he's got an IBAN!"-type harassment? | |||

== Emperor Jimmu == | |||
See my stricken comment: it's not "publicists" but almost certainly a freelance translation agency, and nothing was "changed" but rather a few new articles were added with ''they''. The main profile page and all news articles prior to this week (assuming this was a "batch" translation), including those since last June, continue to use ''she''. It's likely that the only reason for the inconsistency one way or the other is that it would cost extra to pay a professional copyeditor to change one or the other and neither Utada nor anyone involved in the maintenance of the website cares enough to pay for that. If it were me doing the translation (and it wasn't) it would be unthinkable to change the pronouns without also directly notifying the (non-English-speaking) client that I had done so and recommending that they change the older pages for consistency, so it is important to note that no such change has thus far been made. This may come as a shock to people who live in America or Europe and have never spent time in Japan or dwelt on the websites of Japanese companies, celebrities, etc., but people really care that little about the quality of the "official English versions" of their websites: even the great ]'s official global site has a history section whose that reads {{tq|Presented here is Mitsubishi's journey in the automobile industry since '''the its''' establishment.}}, says "News Release" where it should say "News Releases" or just "News" (it's not a list of ''press'' releases but simply news updates), their page uses full-width commas instead of commas followed by spaces in their address, and what should be {{tq|Number of Board Members}} is {{tq|Member of the Board}} and what should be something like {{tq|CEO and Representative Director}} is instead the utterly bizarre {{tq|Member of the Board Representative Executive Officer,�President & CEO}}; if a multinational corporation with overseas investors and a massive overseas market has a website that looks like this (definitely the result of being farmed out to a general translation service and then "proof-read" in-house by people with minimal English proficiency), then why would we assume the website of a popstar who is almost unheard of outside of Japanese-speaking communities is better when all evidence supports the opposite assertion? ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:32, 12 January 2022 (UTC) | |||
Hijiri can you tell me that how Emperor Jimmu's historicity is disputed? ] (]) 16:22, 14 December 2014 (UTC) | |||
::He supposedly lived in the 7th century BCE. The first time an extant historical document mentions him is 1,400 years later. Any figure who survived only in the oral tradition for that long is automatically of doubtful historicity. Additionally, the name "Emperor Jinmu" is a historical anachronism arbitrarily assigned to him decades ''after'' said historical document was compiled; the "historicity of Kan'yamato Iware-biko" is arguably a different matter from the "historicity of Emperor Jinmu". I think the dates are, of course, a weak argument; the fact that several generations of emperors after him have no legendary narratives attributed to them, and the reign-dates were clearly consciously extended, indicates to me that Jinmu is more likely to have been historical than several of his successors, and he may have actually lived some time in maybe the second century CE. This is of course all ], and I would avoid adding this claim to an article without a reliable secondary source -- did I do so on some occasion? ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:42, 15 December 2014 (UTC) ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:42, 15 December 2014 (UTC) | |||

:Umm ... how exactly could that edit have been made in good faith? I implemented a change to the guideline, and edited the examples to conform to the new wording. I then started to work systematically fixing all the articles to conform to the wording too. I unfortunately missed one particularly apt one I should have perhaps dealt with first. Instead of making the change him/herself <!-- I know IPs can't move or create pages, but still... -->they went partially reverted my (consensus-backed) edit to the guideline page.

I am sorry but I am not the best at editing Misplaced Pages articles so I don't know all the tags to use or how to cite everything correctly. However, if you did Google Dragon Ball Online Revelations you will see multiple articles by multiple sites. Sites like Destructoid and Dragon Ball Insider are also very credible. Contact them if you need further information. I am also the same user as Dboeditor but I only made that account because I forgot the password and email I used so I created this account and are going to only use this account. The other user you posted on my talk page was, however, not me. If you are looking for a more credible source, the Dragonball Insider page would be better and it has more updated information (however it is still not perfectly up to date). is the link of that article. It is a 2014 source but seeing as it is still the first month of 2015 it might take a little bit to get a 2015 source. Also, that article has been updated throughout the year to include more information about the project. The home site I posted also has valuable information on the home page. Like a general FAQ of the project and the legality information you requested . Much more information can be found on the site. There is also a Facebook page giving constant updates . As well as a page. There are many articles covering the project including a couple that are from known sources and should be more reliable. There is also the legality information and all the information you will need on the project in the links posted. I'm not sure what else I could give you to convince you that the project is real and reliable. In the edit history, multiple other users have added the project in the page in the past as well. | |||

I think the productive way to reorganize that page is to cited as theory the theories, and then provide the actual literature which surveys and challenges or confirms those ideas as theories. Yamanoue no Okura is a good example. These ideas are in circulating, after all, and giving readers guidance as to their status, often dubious, can be more enlightening than mere erasure.] (]) 09:03, 4 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
:@]: I like that idea in theory: but he's ] who ] have speculated originated in ]. We've also got the problem that he's arguably the famous writer of Japanese classical poetry who had ''very little'' influence of Japanese poets of later ages (he was only "rediscovered" in the 20th century), so writing about him in the context of that article, under its current title (by the way, I liked your talk page post, but can I take it you'd support an RM to a more reasonable title?) and surrounded by the remote fringe material (how does Japanese in the 17th century importing movable type from the continent count as a "Korean influence on Japanese culture" -- on ANI Jagello as two "renowned and mainstream Japanologists"]] who are representative of the sourcing in the article, when they are both only cited in that one paragraph...) is not something I want to take responsibility for. | |||
:Both Jagello and KoreanSentry will be indefinitely blocked pretty soon anyway. Even if CU doesn't prove they've been engaging in sockpuppetry (I don't think those two accounts are the same, by the way; I think they are two separate people who have both edited the article in the past under different usernames) they are SPAs who need to be blocked per ] (and their poor English brings CIR concerns into it as well). Once they're out of the picture, the only person trying to reinstate the previous wording as is will be CN, and you and I both know how to work with him. Once the incomprehensible synth has been washed out, little bits of properly verified, factual and ''relevant'' material can be gradually added piece by piece. I'd be happy to write about the Okura toraijin theory in the article then. Despite what ] would tell you, I actually don't take the attitude that "Okura was Korean" or that "Misplaced Pages should claim unqualifiedly that Okura was Korean" -- it's a very popular theory among scholars, but so is the idea that ]. (Sorry, the comparison is a bit 専門外 for me -- ] and ] are both respected, mainstream sources on the Dead Sea scrolls sect, right?) | |||
:] (<small>]]</small>) 14:11, 4 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
:By the way, ]: You wouldn't happen to know anyone who speaks Korean and is a good snoop when it comes to off-wiki canvassing, would you? I've dealt with the issue before now (in the ] and ] debacles) but in both those cases the canvassing was done in my native language on easily searchable message boards. It's practically a given that Korean nationalists discuss English Misplaced Pages's coverage of these disputes off-site (just read some of ...), but I'd be interested to know if it's happened recently, in relation to this article... ] (<small>]]</small>) 14:30, 4 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
:::No. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who speaks Korean (I only know a few people who speak Japanese, for that matter!) | |||
:::No problems with ridding the place of arseholes. When you have a repetitive behavior issue on a contested article, one can be Manichaean (delete/restore) or, um, intelligent, by which I mean, reimagining the material as a meta-subject, so that the war over putative facts becomes a discussion of theories, and of poor sources as opposed to the ongoing results of scholarship. Take an example I haven't mentioned. Man'yõ 1:5 幸讃岐國安益郡之時軍王見山作歌, 軍王, though mostly read as ''Ikusa no opokimi/Ikusa no ōkimi'' has a reading attached to it ''Konikishi no opokimi,'' introduced from a misprision of the correlated section in the Nihon Shoki, and has been used to hazard the idea that this is a reference to a king of Paekche. Well, there's a lot of this kind of stuff around, but rather than dismiss it, I reckon it's more enjoyable to showcase the speculation, and show that, where this is the case, scholarship has either dismissed it, regarded it as weak evidence, or entertained also other interpretations that are not congruent with the theory. As to the wonderful Yamanoue no Okura, he was born in Korea, and that means nothing, given the ethnic complexity there. Getting the facts right, about his father's job at one court over there, where two languages were spoken, and his removal to Japan when Yamamoue was 4, etc., trumps any illusion that we are dealing with a 'Korean' poet. The page could be interesting if one used it to survey the problem of these attributions, which is discussed at length in Japanese sources I'm sure you're familiar with.

Hi. Your moving description says ""Yamato-kotoba" has technical uses that differ from "wago"'s; both are encyclopedic and merit articles, but they should be separate articles, and this article appears always to have been primarily about wago, NOT yamato-kotoba, so moving page". Can you explain this further? I have been reading linguistic sources about wago/yamato kotoba and ''every one of them'' uses the term interchangably, with wago merely being the more wide-spread term, of Chinese origin. Can you show sources that separate them and show how they "differ"? ] ] 08:00, 8 November 2022 (UTC) | |||
...for . You make a good point. It's bedtime here. I'll think about this and respond to you at ANI tomorrow. --] (] · ] · ]) 16:01, 1 March 2015 (UTC) | |||
:Are you sure? Most ''linguistics'' sources I have read uniformly use "wago" (perhaps because it definitely makes more sense as a pair with "kango"?), while I've mostly seen "yamato-kotoba" used in works of literary history to refer to the poetic lexicon of post-''Kokinshū'' waka and/or non wakankonkō prose. I may have been wrong in my statement four years ago that the latter should have it's own article: if you disagree with said statement, feel free to follow my lead and continue to not create such an article. I fail to see how expecting ''de facto'' semi-retired editors like me to formally renounce all statements from years earlier that we may no longer agree with does the project any good. ] (<small>]]</small>) 11:38, 8 November 2022 (UTC) | |||
:@]: Thank you. Your "thank" (what are those things actually called??) and this comment are the mark of a mature editor. ] (<small>]]</small>) 16:05, 1 March 2015 (UTC) | |||
::I merely came across this as I'm writing the ] article on huwiki. No need to bite my head off for asking. Your statement startled me, because it goes against of what I personallyread in sources. So wanted to know where you have read that. All of those sources on the bottom of my huwiki article merely say yamato kotoba is just another name for wago. | |||
::::''"Investigations of each aspect of these and other properties have elucidated the degree of productivity and of creativity of mimetics in comparison with words in the other strata such as Yamato kotoba or wago (native Japanese words)"'' -- Taro Kageyama, Hideki Kishimoto: Handbook of Japanese Lexicon and Word Formation. Page 135. | |||
::::'' "Words in the native stratum, also called wago, are words peculiar to Japanese and form the core of the Japanese lexicon. The wa of wago originates from ancient Chinese 倭(wǒ; ancient Chinese name for Japan) and the go 語(‘word’) also comes from Chinese, so the term wago itself is from Chinese. The term Yamato kotoba ‘Yamato language’ (Yamato being an old name for Japan) is also used to refer to words that are originally Japanese."'' -- page 16-17. | |||
:::: ''"Traditionally, the Japanese lexicon is characterized in terms of three strata. The terms wago 'Japanese words' or Yamato-kotoba 'Yamato words' refer to the stratum of the native vocabulary, and kango 'Chinese words' refers to loan words of Chinese origin"'' -- Masayoshi Shibatani. The Languages of Japan. Page. 142. | |||
::So I would be interested to ''see'' those sources that separate the two. Simply because of encyclopedic reasons of showing a topic from several aspects. if there IS serious research about them being different, it should be discussed in the article. I just own a bunch of Japanese language books and none of them do. Cheers. ] ] 10:27, 9 November 2022 (UTC) | |||
:::Forgive me if I'm misremembering, but did I ever claim I had a source that explicitly stated the distinction? My above reply to you certainly did not make this claim, nor did my edit summary from 2018. In any case, if I recall correctly, is the linguistic work in which I first learned about wago and kango (and gairaigo). Yamatokotoba, meanwhile, was a word I heard in casual conversation numerous times for at least two or three years before that; when penning my reply to you above, I scanned , which (I think?) doesn't mention "wago" but uses "yamato kotoba" in the context of wakan-konkōbun as addressed by Meiji-era literary historians.

Hello Hijiri88. I want to follow up here about the topic of ANI section titles, rather than at ANI, to avoid extending off-topic discussion within the ANI incident that you opened. You objected to my changing the section title at the section originally and currently named: "User:Catflap08 ignoring what I say and abusing RFD, and seems to have serious CIR issues" (current link: ]; permalink ) You stated: "Revert. WP:TALKNEW is for article talk pages, where, indeed, threads about particular users are generally a bad thing. ANI is for repirting user problems, and the assertion that it is inappropriate to give another's username in the title of a tread about that user is ridiculous." | |||
<div class="ivmbox " style="margin-bottom: 1em; border: 1px solid #AAA; background-color: ivory; padding: 0.5em; display: flex; align-items: center; "> | |||

1) It's a fair point, that at least on the face of it ] would seem to apply only to article talk pages. And further, even if it applies to all Talk pages, actually wp:ANI is in Misplaced Pages space and is not in Talkspace; the Talk page for ANI is for general discussion about ANI and is not where specific ANI cases are discussed and resolved. But, in my view, ] is in fact clearly also about section titles at administrative noticeboards. It states: | |||
{{quote|''Don't address other users in a heading'': Headings invite all users to comment. Headings may be ''about'' specific edits but not specifically ''about the user''. (Some exceptions are made at administrative noticeboards, where reporting problems by name is normal.)}} | |||
:and | |||
{{quote|Reporting on another user's edits from a ] is an exception, especially reporting ] or ] to administrators."}} | |||
:which both are explicitly covering ANI. | |||

:My interpretation: It is saying that using a username in an ANI section heading is allowed, but not within a non-neutral complete title, or, in other words, not when combined with a negative characterization. So avoid matching a username plus a negative characterization. E.g. "Conduct of user:username" is neutral and okay, but not "User:username is continuing tendentious edits" (which uses a verb phrase that characterizes the user's conduct negatively) and not "Incompetent and tendentious user:username" (which uses an adjective phrase characterizing the user negatively). | |||
</div> | |||
:And further, expressing a negative characterization alone, without naming a user, is okay. E.g. "Continuing tendentious edits at article Article" would not on its own constitute a personal attack, and is okay. It is more polite, leaving open the possibility that editors may disagree about who has been tendentious, if editors agree that indeed there has been tendentious editing. Such a label will not convey a negative accusation about a specific user in the default edit summaries that will repeat the title; it does not prejudge what is the consensus judgment about a specific user; a later link to the archived section does not imply that a negative accusation about a specific user was found to be the consensus outcome; later mention of the label is not hurtful to a victim unfairly accused. | |||

2) It's also fair for you to note "the assertion that it is inappropriate to give another's username in the title of a tread about that user is ridiculous". I don't disagree with that. It's okay to use a NEUTRAL section title like "Conduct of username", and that is often done. What I object to, and I believe wp:TALKNEW disallows, is combining a username with a negative characterization. | |||

The other day, I was having a conversation with someone about holiday cards and social media. It occurred to me that, in the years since I left Facebook, the site I use most to communicate with people I like isn't actually a social media site at all. If you're receiving this, it's pretty likely I've talked with you more recently than I have my distant relatives and college friends on FB, at very least, and we may have even collaborated on something useful. So here's a holiday "card", Misplaced Pages friend. :) Hope the next couple weeks bring some fun and/or rest. — <samp>] <sup style="font-size:80%;">]</sup></samp> \\ 18:19, 22 December 2022 (UTC) | |||
3) I also want to say that I don't mean anything personal towards you, and in fact I believe your section title was in line with general practice. I want to change what is the general practice, however, and i have been making a point of retitling in other ANI sections recently (e.g. as in , which was not disputed, and per ] which seemed to reach good agreement). | |||

I hope this helps to explain where I am coming from, and reduces any negative feelings I might have caused. I probably should have expressed myself better. If you were offended, I do sincerely apologize. I'll watch here and would be happy to exchange views further if you like. Please feel free to contact me at my Talk page, especially if you comment here and I don't reply. I hope and expect to have positive interactions with you in Misplaced Pages if/when we bump into each other again. | |||

If you read through you will know why I was frustrated. (Yes, I'm aware of the hypocrisy of asking you to read a massive comment while admitting that I have yet to read yours.)

::Okay, thanks, no problem. I did just read your long post, and appreciate it. I understand your frustration about the title change breaking links from your contribution history, and I didn't think beforehand about that effect. My point is a peripheral, off-topic issue, relative to the complicated situation you describe. I made my point (or tried but failed to make my point) and am fine / done. While I don't think I am "misinterpreting" the talknew guideline, exactly, I am making a seemingly odd point (asserting that a common practice in ANI section titles is not good), and it seemed that I was implying ANI threads can't describe actions of other editors can't be described as they appear. I meant, but did not communicate adequately, that for various reasons the section title, only, should not have a judgmental label; of course it is essential that the opening statement (OP?) within the section must be explicit in naming user(s) and in describing negative actions. I think i erred in the revised title i suggested, would probably suggest something different if i could go back, too. And i'll have a think and/or plan to consult others about whether re-titling amounts to changing anothers' words inappropriately (even though i did restate the original title). Thank you, actually, for giving me the feedback that my title change and communication didn't work as intended; it will help me do better in the future. | |||

::And, your apology towards me within the first hat-noted passage is very generous, is completely accepted by me, and is more than is needed. There's no need for you to consider this topic further now, while you have bigger issues to deal with. I see no need for you to make any change or correction or other comment at all further on this, either here or in the ANI about this. Good luck in your pursuit of the behavior changes or t-ban you seek, and hope you have a good rest and come back refreshed. thanks, sincerely, cheers, --]]] 16:27, 3 March 2015 (UTC) | |||

I did not notice that you had partially stuck out the sentence, so I reverted a comment there. But the problem still remains . You have still left misrepresentations. It says it looks like I tried to deliberately undermine a discussion. "The recent close ''looks like'' a deliberate attempt to undermine this". I have no stake in this page, I have never edited it, and at the moment wish I had never seen it. But I will not be dragged through the mud. {{u|Cunard}} never supported what you have written about deliberately undermining. Please strike that sentence completely. ] 03:04, 19 April 2015 (UTC) | |||
:I never said you intended to undermine Dekimasu's edits. I said your edits had that effect. I stated numerous times that your timing was an unfortunate mistake. I never said or implied that you ''intended'' to do so. Are you asking me to strike my whole comment? I asked you to undo your closing statement because I felt it had the effect of undermining Dekimasu's edits, and you complied, for which I am thankful, but it's not entirely clear what you want me to do -- am I supposed to change my opinion that your post had the effect of undermining Dekimasu's edits? If so, why did you undo it? ] (<small>]]</small>) 10:09, 19 April 2015 (UTC) | |||

Don't take this the wrong way. I know quite well, since I suffer from the same, academic inculcation never to trust secondary sources, that they often get things wrong. However, on Misplaced Pages, it doesn't work to write as if one were writing a personal doctoral thesis. One simple musters the available sources, and writes in accordance with them (making personal notes for one's files offline is fine, to be used when 難点 can be clarified). My method may trouble you: I take the most recent up-to-date sources I can get my hands on, and systematically add all the data, first from one, then from the next, down the line, and eliminate anything in the received wiki article which can't find any textual corroboration. If the article I rework is undocumented at points, I just remove the stuff, my view being, that no one has a right to add stuff unless they can provide the source, and the page, and if requested, the precise wording. | |||
|rowspan="2" style="vertical-align:middle;" | | |||
Doing this is second order composition, but it is rapid. There is always time to come back and fill stuff in. It is also, in my view, advisable not to make an ambitious outline of sections and subsections if one doesn't already have sufficient material to fill them out. | |||
|rowspan="2" | | |||
I've thus hacked out stuff, and notes in-text that no doubt are useful reminders for you, and that may seem disconcerting. But with the several sources we have already linked for reading, a fair basic overview is quite easy to make within a day or two. | |||

In any case, I'll lay off it for a few days, and hand it back your way. If you wish to restore your glosses and notes, fine. I just feel that you are making things harder for yourself than might need be the case.

:On no, I don't distrust secondary sources. I just think that reworking the article to make it look like it was originally based on Keene, then checked against various other encyclopedias. I'm reluctant to remove material that I personally think is ] and can be verified, just not with any of the sources I have checked so far. It's a draft, so it doesn't need to all be verified yet. That's why I use ], so it will be easy to Ctrl+F that material quickly and find sources for it. ] (<small>]]</small>) 00:43, 3 May 2015 (UTC) | |||

:Hi ]. No, English is my first language. I can write Japanese for most purposes, but unfortunately I ''stay the hell away'' from Japanese Misplaced Pages. On English Misplaced Pages, noticing that certain users have a recurring tendency to post their personal opinions as facts on various articles whether or not they have sources, and then going to other articles on which they have done the same thing and pointing out that it's a recurring problem with them, leaves one open to accusations of ] and ]; on Japanese Misplaced Pages, merely requesting a source for any individual statement in an article (or ''adding'' a source and altering the text to match what the source says, therefore "implying that the previous statement was a lie") counts as a personal attack.

The methods you are using will not work at Misplaced Pages—your edits are valuable, but there is far too much noise associated with your account, and you will be sanctioned if it continues. You need to take advice or leave—stop posting at ANI. If you want an explanation ask, but like nearly everyone there, I don't have time to get involved and all I can do is provide some brief guidance about procedures that work, and those that don't. ] (]) 10:54, 17 May 2015 (UTC) | |||
:{{ping|Johnuniq}} I know that. I hate ANI. I avoided it like the dickens. That's why I tried and tried and tried and tried and tried to avoid bringing the CurtisNaito issue to ANI, giving him chance after chance after chance (the "threats" he referred to), before finally I had no choice but to ... respond, when he started the ANI thread and essentially asked that I be sitebanned for disagreeing with him? (I know he didn't say siteban but he did leave it ambiguous whether I should be page-banned or "TBANned" from some indefinitely broad topic, and a number of his supporters said I should be TBANned from all Japanese articles -- as in all the articles I have ever shown any interest in editing.) | |||
:Anyway, I'm not going to respond directly to his latest assertion that he was the primary author of the ] article (despite the fact that when he first decided to edit it it looked like ) and that this somehow means he shouldn't be TBANned from articles on Japanese history before the ]. I'll just leave that to stand as it is. | |||
:But please don't try to tell me that "focusing on making constructive article edits" makes the vindictive ANI junkies more friendly, because ]. I'm going to keep doing so anyway but I'm not under any illusions that it will make the sharks less hungry for blood. | |||

::You understand articles on Japan; I understand ANI and wiki culture. You need to stop responding at ANI, and you need to find a way to not respond to an editor where you believe the response is not going to get a good result. I'm commenting here because I have a faint hope you might adapt, but if I thought there was little chance of that, I wouldn't bother. You should follow the same strategy with regard to others. Find other ways of dealing with whatever the underlying issue is—use an RfC if necessary (although that might not be helpful if virtually no other editors can understand the topic), or just abandon an article for a few months and revisit it later. I think I saw Nishidani provide similar advice. The suggestion at ANI about arbitration is appealing, but a significant effort would be required, and the evidence would need to be concise and clear, and free of baggage. ] (]) 12:04, 17 May 2015 (UTC) | |||
:::Well, I can only assume you're referring to the CurtisNaito affair, where a number of users including myself believe the underlying problem is some combination of the ones outlined in the essays ] and ], and the guideline ]. It has followed on the steps of a particular editor whenever he edits in a particular, rather broad, topic area. Because ] no longer exists, RFC would be inappropriate, since it's a recurring problem with a particular user on a broad range of articles. DRN would be just as inappropriate, since DRN is for discussing article content, not user conduct. DRN also suffers from something like a 90% failure rate. The exact same was true, at least from the point of view of me, Sturmgewehr88 and several other users (different users on different articles) of an otherwise entirely separate problem I had a few weeks ago that I think I'm still technically not allowed discuss with you outside of ].) | |||
:::Anyway, I'm going to drop back from the ANI thread as per my last reply to you and leave the decision of whether to resolve the issue immediately or send it to ArbCom to the community/admin corps. If it goes to arbitration, I will wait for Nishidani or Sturmgewehr88 or both to post their comments first. I'm actually not the litigious guy a lot of people seem to think I am, and I ''despise'' having to spend a certain percentage of my Misplaced Pages time on ANI and various other such forums, just so that I can be allowed build the encyclopedia in accordance with the policies and guidelines that are very clearly laid out. When people are claiming ] that I be site-banned and they are not being sanctioned for such is one of those times when I don't really have a choice in the matter. | |||

'''Tip of the month:''' | |||
Of course Homer may very well have been translated into Arabic several times, and we don't know that the echoes of the Odyssey in Sinbad were based on any particular translation. But mentioning a known (and very early) translation does establish that Homer was available to Arabic readers (and as a source for Arab oral story tellers) for centuries by the time of the earliest known versions of Sinbad. This certainly didn't strike me as particularly "irrelevant". Worth a discussion on the talk page for the article? --] (]) 23:33, 31 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
* ''Use the Google translate app and camera on your phone to translate text from an article or book'' | |||
:@]: Well, the way I read that section of the article, it wasn't Arabic storytellers but Turkish copyists or printers who added the Sinbad stories to the AN canon, which would seem (admittedly I'm not an expert) to make an arbitrary reference to the earliest known ''Turkish'' translation more relevant than a similar reference to an early Arabic translation. Is the eighth-century Arabic translation of Homer often mentioned in reliable sources as being a potential source for the Sinbad mythos? If not, I think drawing the connection for our readers might be a ]-violation. ] (<small>]]</small>) 02:55, 1 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
::We are not saying anything (and nor do we need to) where whoever "wrote" (originated, anyway) the Sinbad cycle first heard the story of Polyphemus (on which the very similar story in Sinbad is almost certainly based - Burton, for one, had no doubts at all). In fact even if we had that information, its relevance would be pretty marginal. On the other hand we ''can'' point out, with the information that Homer was translated into Arabic as long ago as the eighth century, that Homer was familiar enough to the Arabic speakers (Sindbad is an Arabic work, not a Turkish one, although the first time it was linked to any version of the "AN canon" seems to have been in a Turkish edition). Hope I have the sense of this correct - I didn't write it, or do the research on which this passage is based.

I would also like to point out that I seem to have made a major make up in my post in that ANI thread. | |||
I supported the topic ban as it was proposed by AlbinoFerret and BMK. | |||
However, my clarifying statement referred to the previous ANI where I did believe that Catflap had violated their interaction ban and should have been sanctioned. | |||
I also felt that the interaction ban, ''at that time'', should not be lifted so soon after being levied. Whether a subsequent consensus was to lift the ban is neither here nor there. As it stands the ANI has been closed by Drmies with no action this time beyond a slap on the wrist. I have no dispute with how it was closed. My observations are entirely not personal and are as objective as possible. My post here is merely to clarify my statement which has caused some confusion to you and Wikimandia as I did not wish to edit a closed ANI. ] (]) 06:48, 10 August 2015 (UTC) | |||

{{unblock reviewed | 1= this was a comment on another user's talk page about said user's pre-close comment on what was as far as I knew a then-still-open ANI discussion of said IBAN. I had seen and responded on the user's talk page so as to not further clutter the ANI thread, without looking at the latest update on ANI. (Drmies himself said in his close that it was cluttered.) The near-universal consensus was that the IBAN should be dissolved, and that the other party had violated it numerous times and should face some sort of consequences. Drmies closed the ANI thread, apparently unilaterally quashing a still-open discussion as to how the problem should be dealt with. I accidentally stumbled across the closed ANI thread ''after'' posting the offending comment. While my post may have ] violated the IBAN because the ANI thread had already been closed, I was not made aware of the close, and I think most of the participants would have seen the sudden close as counter-intuitive, so "Hijiri88 should have instinctively known that the ANI thread was closed and that commenting on it on other pages was therefore technically inappropriate" is a weak reason to block me for 72 hours, ''especially'' when the other participant in the IBAN has not yet received a block for numerous proven violations. ] (<small>]]</small>) 16:33, 10 August 2015 (UTC) Edit: I was under the impression that discussing the other user on a user talk page, in the context of discussing a still-open ANI discussion of whether the IBAN should be dissolved, was acceptable. My reason for believing this was that the other party had not been blocked -- or even warned -- for extensive commentary on me and my edits on his own talk page and . Drmies claims below that I had received a "final warning" before being blocked, but no such final warning -- not even any initial warning -- was received. If I am blocked without warning for technically violating the terms of a poorly-defined IBAN because I am mimicking the supposedly-acceptable behaviour of the other party, then blocking me without blocking them makes this a one-way IBAN, something that no one agreed to. Either I should be unblocked or the other party should be blocked. ] (<small>]]</small>) 10:20, 12 August 2015 (UTC) | accept = Procedural only as the block expired. ]<sup>]</sup> 22:22, 14 August 2015 (UTC)}} | |||

::::Drmies, where was this final warning? You didn't post anything on my talk page. When the IBAN was put in place you not only closed the AN thread in a manner that was quite obvious to all participants, you posted on both of our talk pages informing us that the IBAN was now in effect; here you posted a closing statement that claimed that my edits to the Kokuchukai may have been IBAN-violations (even though no one else seems to agree) and told me to zip it, but took no measures to ensure that I had seen this before blocking me. If you had posted this on my talk page I would have been all too willing to do so -- believe me, I have never actively sought to interact with the other user, even long before I was officially banned from doing so -- but you can't claim you gave me a final warning when you had no reason whatsoever to believe I had read your closing statement. You can't tell me that your previous wrist-slaps to ''the other party'' should be taken as warnings to ''me'' that the next violation by ''either'' party would result in a block (and I would have no reason to believe that that is how IBANs are supposed to work). And the kid gloves with which all previous violations of this IBAN have been treated () should have given you pause before immediately blocking me for the slightest infraction and claiming that you had delivered a "final warning" to me (when no initial, let alone final, warnings had ever been received, to the best of my knowledge). | |||
::::You may or may not remember past experiences I have with IBANs, but I certainly remember past experiences you had with a certain IBAN, and if I recall correctly that ended with for blocking me without looking at all the evidence. Can't you even consider that maybe the same thing might have happened again? In this case you not to be requested to close discussions or block for violations of this IBAN, and to report violations on ANI, but have actively stepped in numerous times since then, and even that AN and ANI are ''not'' the place to report IBANs. I also haven't forgotten when that ''AN is the place to discuss IBANs''. I really don't know what to make of all of this. No one ever told me IBANs were this complicated and difficult to handle, and I never would have accepted the present one if someone had told me that reporting an IBAN-violation itself merited a "warning", and continuing to report could result in blocks. (I appreciate that ''in this case'' I ] mentioned the other party's name on a user talk page; said other party ] and is now being told that ]. Indeed, the user has previously engaged in of me and my edits on his own user talk page -- with the exact same user, in fact -- and was never even wrist-slapped because he ]. I never reported this until now because I was under the impression that with a still-open ANI discussion heavily leaning toward dissolving the IBAN, then discussion ''of said ANI discussion'' on user talk pages was acceptable. This curious loophole where it ''is'' forgivable to go into detailed discussion of the IBAN-parties' conduct but only if the IBAN-parties do not mention each other ''by name'' was never elaborated to me either here or in ]. The whole thing has essentially become a farce at this point. Clearly Snow Rise was also unaware of how this worked, else he would not have brought me up on the other user's talk page and would have reminded me to be careful when I mentioned him on his talk page. You can say I'm wikilawyering at this point all you want, but what do you call claiming that my behaviour was blockworthy because I had received a "final warning" when no such warning was ever received?) | |||
::::] (<small>]]</small>) 23:50, 10 August 2015 (UTC) <small>Final edit made 00:58, 11 August 2015 (UTC). Sorry for having to go into such detail. I'm not the only long-winded Wikipedian, and Drmies has criticized others in the past for not being will to read long comments. And this is an extremely complex issue. I just hope the unblock request reviewer at least notes all the extra commentary provided down here, such as how the block rationale was at least as wikilawyer-y as the unblock reasoning, and how every single ''technical'' violation I made was directly paralleled, earlier and stronger, by the other party.</small> | |||
:::::Hijiri, I am sure everyone understands your defense: "Catflap did it first". Now, moving on to other matters, can I point out to you that you may not have ''technically'' broken the iBan with Catflap on ], since you have directly responded to them, but that you're playing with fire, and that you can easily be seen as ] Catflap, since they have 170 edits in that article and you have none, and yet you show up on the talk page when they're mentioned in a thread? ] (]) 21:36, 16 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
::::::@]: I have been editing articles on Japanese religion since 2005, and in April that edits like that one (posting on a talk page in an area the other party is relatively more interested in, but not directly interacting with them) are ''not'' IBAN-violations. I have been monitoring that page because the whole area is a shitstorm of OR/SYNTH/general nonsense (not specifically related to me, or the other user in the IBAN, or any other one, two or even three users) in which I have become inextricably involved since before the IBAN was in place (see my pre-IBAN edits to ], ] and ] and my post-IBAN RM on ]). If you want to intervene and stop the constant barrage of SYNTH/OR/BS infesting that article and the articles in its immediate vicinity (note that I am practically the sole author of our articles on ], a figure known for his Nichiren Buddhist beliefs, and the ], a Nichiren Buddhist NRM), please be my guest. You might say that since the user with whom I am IBANned and I had previously disputed in the topic-area in question, I should be staying clear away from that topic-area as a rule, but then the same would have to apply both ways. TBANs and PAGEBANs were never under discussion to begin with. On the talk page in question, I was responding to another user with whom I have no IBAN, whose proposed edits would have been an NOR-violation. If you yourself are not willing to step in and cut through the OR and other nonsense, I would ask that you stay out of my way and stop it with the double standards. The IBAN is not a one-way IBAN in which I can be sanctioned for the exact same behaviour that you yourself asserted was not a violation when engaged in by the other party. I don't see why you are getting so involved here, anyway: you specifically stated in your initial close that you wanted nothing more to do with this IBAN, but now you have started not only unilaterally quashing open ANI discussion of whether the ban should be dissolved, but actively enforcing it in a manner that looks like ]. And ''don't'' say that my responding to you here in this manner itself counts as a violation: what else am I supposed to do -- just ignore and/or revert your comment? ] (<small>]]</small>) 09:59, 17 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
:::::::Hijiri, you're in the same ''thread'' that Catflap was in. And of course I'm not saying that a response breaks the iBan--please don't be silly. And note that I just made a comment: I didn't block you. ] (]) 14:01, 17 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
::::::::Thank you for not blocking me, but as far as I can see the only differences between this discussion and the discussion for which you ''did'' block me are that (1) I used the phrase "the other user" rather than the user name and (2) it is taking place on my talk page rather than that of a third party -- if I responded to you on your talk page rather than here I assume that would also not be a violation, but I would still ''really'' like to see some concrete definition of this IBAN lest I ''accidentally'' violate it again. Blocking for casual and infrequent use of the other's username in the context of a discussion of whether the IBAN should be dissolved, but not for the exact same with "the other user" subbed in every single time rather than just 80% of the time, seems arbitrary. | |||
::::::::As for the "thread" part -- have you actually read the "thread" in question? One of the problems with that topic area (not just that page, but all the others I mentioned, right down to Kenji and the Kokuchukai) is that all semblance of talk-page etiquette and logical/rational discussion has broken down. The comment to which I was responding had very little relation to the thread topic, which in turn had nothing to do with the comments by the other user with whom I am TBANned (three words and just over a line, respectively). Saying that I'm on thin ice because my comments fell into some extremely loose framework known as a "thread" is silly, when 90% of discussion on that talk-page is off-topic banter about the nature of the topic rather than about how the article can improved by reference to reliable sources. | |||

:@]: John Carter has previously (four months ago, but he was inactive on Misplaced Pages for three of those months) requested that the admin corps go to the archives and reexamine all of my past disputes and turn the results back on me. He specifically requested that I be blocked for violating Tristan noir's TBAN on Japanese literature, which led to said ban's wording being altered two years after the fact. There have been similar calls (directly from other users with whom John Carter has apparently been in off-wiki contact, indirectly from John Carter himself) to unblock JoshuSasori (who among other things posted my parents' home address on Misplaced Pages in order to intimidate me) and Juzumaru (whose last six months of edits before being block consisted of wisecracks about my love life, and who has claimed to be currently evading his block via a sock account).

:::Repeatedly asserting that I should be blocked for stuff that happened years ago in which I was the clear victim of harassment at that time and virtually everyone agreed is pretty close to violating ], ] and ], and blatantly violates ] (John Carter, having no first-hand knowledge of my history, saw the bodies in my wake and ''assumed'' I had victimized them rather than the other way around). John Carter has been called out for this by multiple users, including ] ''he himself canvassed''. If by personal attack you mean my questioning JC's sanity, what is the acceptable way of calling out another user for doing the same thing multiple times and expecting different results? I admit I am frustrated with this situation, and have most certainly gone over the edge in a few of my remarks, but please bear in mind that, despite what John Carter and Beyond My Ken keep asserting, I actually have nothing to lose here beyond what they are explicitly trying to take away from me: TBANning me from every article I have ever edited or ever will edit would be the end of my Misplaced Pages career is effectively the same as indefinitely blocking me, hacking my account and changing the password. | |||
:::But you are right. Questioning John Carter's sanity was the wrong move, as it was every other time my frustration with his accusations drove me to do it in the past, and when I did the same to Beyond My Ken earlier today.

== September 2023 at Women in Red == | |||
The fact is that we have all been dealing in this issue with a couple of extremely disruptive, very difficult to deal with editors who have a long history of bringing out the worst in people through their passive-aggressive, IDHT behaviour on talk pages. We should be working as hard as possible to avoid letting this situation get the best of us (as I myself have a few times in the past, I'll admit). Neither of you have been doing this to the best of your abilities, as far as I can see. | |||

If you want to let CurtisNaito and his attack dog get you blocked, topic-banned or page-banned, or get their preferred version reinstated and then protected, then I guess I can't stop you. But please take your entirely meaningless and silly fight somewhere else. Keep it off my talk page. I logged in three times during the above exchange being told I had received new messages; each time I clicked the link, afraid of an ANI notice of yet another of my wiki-stalkers starting a discussion of whether I should be site-banned for this stupid reason or that, and I would have to spend another week arguing over bullshit rather than working to improve the encyclopedia; each time, I was both relieved that this was not the case and further annoyed that the messages I was receiving were not even for me, but an utterly stupid and completely pointless fight between two users who, to all outside observers and even most of those inside, appear to actually be agreeing with each other. | |||

:@]: Nishidani is an opinionated user with diligent sourcing standards and a sharp tongue. He and I almost never agree fully on article content. Sometimes he was wrong, I corrected him, and he recognized his mistake; sometimes I was wrong, he corrected me, and I recognized my mistake. The reason we generally work well together despite rarely agreeing is because we are both open to being corrected. In this case, Nishidani and I are both dealing with a user who has proved again and again that he is unwilling to admit his mistakes (and they are many). When that user is indisputably proven to be wrong, he just says "Oh, well I meant to day that from the start -- why didn't you understand me?", and when he can he argues and argues and argues until the other users give up and move on. He also blankly reverts article edits until he gets his way, carefully avoiding making more than three reverts to the same article in any 24-hour period. As you can tell, I'm ''not'' talking about you here. It's not your fault Nishidani and I are frustrated as (insert-four-letter-epithet-here) in the present matter. However, as far as I can tell on reading the recent talk discussion your only substantial dispute with him is over whether one lives on or in an archipelago -- I don't have a strong opinion either way, so I don't see how it could be worth fighting over. ] (<small>]]</small>) 11:13, 3 September 2015 (UTC) | |||

::I frankly agree with both of you, to a degree. On philosophical grounds I would tend to take your side, but it's not worth arguing with Nishidani when he's basically the best there is at what that article needs right now. The article before last weekend was utter crap. Nishidani came along and improved it, citing sources that dispute the claims that CN had added and/or made up based on his own misreadings of sources. I am inclined to agree with you that an overview article is not the place for ''either'' CN's claims ''or'' Nishidani's rebuttals. (This is why when instead of Nishidani I'm the one who corrects CN, users don't have the same -- perfectly reasonable! -- complaints that you made about about Nishidani's modified text -- I just ''remove'' the gibberish/OR and ''replace'' it with a summary of the scholarly consensus of similar length, whereas Nishidani is a devout inclusionist.) | |||

While under normal circumstances I would say my own comment was a borderline IBAN violation, in this case by the same strict logic the other user's mentioning me in his request for a self-block was also a violation, and so it seems one definition of the IBAN is being applied to me and another to the other user. I don't feel at liberty to discuss this with you openly on-wiki, but everything I said was true and verifiable.

Hi, Hijiri88, | |||
I came across an SPI case you filed and realized it had been a long, long time since I ran into you on the project. I hope you are well and just busy with off-line life.

:{{ping|Liz}} I've been well. I'm not really fully "back" at the moment, but I do appreciate your message. The reason I largely stopped editing Misplaced Pages a few years back was partly because of the drahma, but primarily because of a number of systemic issues not (directly) related to ANI, so I'm still not sure if I'm ready to fully return. (Also, shortly before I was eligible for permanent residency I had to switch employers because of pandemic-related issues, which was pretty hectic, and I still don't have the kind of free time I had during most of my more active periods.) I do still want to finish (or continue) a number of the projects I started back in 2015, 2017, and 2018, and I will probably continue on-and-off editing for the time being.

How did no one notice that, while slightly improving some kinda awkward but still acceptable wording, TH1980 added the wording "Japan signed the an important military alliance with Great Britain"? Not only did this introduce an ungrammatical element in an edit whose ''only'' claim to being worthwhile was slightly improving grammar, but if we're copyediting, then referring to Japan signing alliances with physical features like the island of Great Britain (rather than the ]) should be one of the first things to be fixed. | |||
</div> | |||
Also, someone really needs to change the section title "The road to war". I know most of the other users editing the page are American, and I don't know how the average American WW2/Japanese history buff sees this, but referring to the first ten years of the so-called "Fifteen Years War" as "the road to war" is ''very'' Americocentric and somewhat offensive when one considers that half the Sino-Japanese War is being treated as a "lead-in" to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Japanese history books do not describe it this way, nor do (university-level, scholarly) discussions of World War II written by and for European audiences. I would suggest changing ] to "Manchurian Incident and Sino-Japanese War" and ] to either "Pacific War" or "Greater East Asia War" (despite how ] somewhat clumsily describes it, this term is still used in discussing the war both in Japan and outside, as for instance ]'s discussion of wartime literature in his volume '']'').

::@]: "World War II" isn't problematic, per se -- it's not openly offensive like the previous one -- but it's technically inaccurate: Japan's involvement with "World War II" is somewhat muddy, since they were allied with Germany and Italy long before Pearl Harbor, they were at war with China earlier still ("World War II" has that moniker because it involved the whole world, but China's involvement followed a totally different timeline), and the standard dating of the beginning of "World War II", as far as that term is concerned, is Germany's invasion of Poland and Britain and France consequently declaring war -- Japan had next to nothing to do with this. It's more a pedantic reaction on my part to the muddiness of the dating, but I think using a more specific term like "Pacific War" would be better. Since the phrase "World War II" is better known, we could perhaps clarify in the first sentence that this refers to the Pacific theater of World War II. ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:39, 27 September 2015 (UTC) | |||

But I don't feel that strongly about it either way, so discussion of that should take place on the article talk page. I've said my piece; whether I continue discussing this particular issue on the talk page once the conditions on my unblock expire is a non-issue, but might cause problems if you and I determine potentially problematic details on my talkpage while I'm not allowed edit the article directly.

I first encountered Catflap08 on ]. I was reading about an author I like and noticed that the lead described him as a "nationalist", despite the cited source not doing so. I removed it and posted a comment explaining my removal on the talk page. At this point I had no idea who had added the epithet, when, or why, and I ]. Catflap08 immediately reverted me and replied on the talk page, ignoring my rationale and merely saying that because a source was cited, even though that source ], the claim could not be removed. When I tried discussing on the talk page, he took this ''content dispute'' to AN. | |||

After he was ] that article content disputes should be discussed on the talk page first, he continued refusing to discuss with me and clarify his stance on the talk page, instead ]. The RFC ] with a unanimous consensus that Catflap08's proposed wording was unacceptable, but not before Catflap08 continued fanning the flames by continuously inserting the word "nationalistic" into the article body. ] told Catflap08 that his edits were unacceptable, and Catflap08 replied with a sarcastic remark. Dennis Brown, as one of the many admins and other outside observers to notice the Catflap08 problem over a year ago and fail to do anything about it, should not be bringing up remotely related disputes as "evidence" that I have a problem getting along with other users, especially when he is much more involved with this specific dispute than he seems to remember. Since both Catflap08 and the other user with whom I have recently disputed ''also'' are in almost constant conflict with multiple users (the admin ] and various editors of NRM- and Holocaust-related pages for the former; ], ], ], ], etc. for the latter), indicating that this is ''not'' a problem with me alone. | |||
'''Announcement''' | |||
Because Catflap08 seemed to completely misunderstand our ] ] policies on the one page where I accidentally interacted with him, I checked another related page he had written, ], and found the same problems rampant. Several months later, Catflap08 returned to the Kenji article and continued adding references to the subject's "nationalist associations" to the lead of the article, and also continued to refuse to discuss changes on the talk page, instead making a series of aggressive and sarcastic remarks. During the ensuing dispute, Catflap08 was also involved in a similar dispute on the ] article (again -- why are unrelated disputes involving ''me'' being brought up as "evidence" that I have some sort of recurring problem with civility, when Catflap08 has the same eact problem, only much worse?). I noticed that, there as well, he was inserting contentious, unsourced material, and claiming that the "sources" he was citing inline verified his claims when they clearly did not. I pointed out on the talk page that this was a recurring problem with this user; this was not an ad hominem argument, as it ''is'' a recurring problem with the user, and was affecting article content. | |||

'''Tip of the month:''' | |||
After the above incident, Catflap08 started requesting an IBAN with me. Eventually such an IBAN was put in place, and Catflap08 continued posting unverified OR in various articles (I didn't notice these for a while, as I was not monitoring him, per the IBAN), and intermittently joining in unrelated disputes involving me, manually reverting edits I had made before the IBAN, manually reverting edits I had made ''after'' the IBAN, discussing me and my edits on the talk pages of other users, and joining in unrelated ANI threads involving me and requesting that I be banned, while carefully avoiding direct mention of my name. These IBAN-violations were almost all ignored by the admin corps, while even the slightest violations on my part were met with blocks. During a discussion to dissolve the IBAN (which took place before my first block, and had received unanimous support), Catflap08 openly compared Sturmgewehr88 and myself to neo-Nazis, based on our usernames. | |||

Catflap08's refusal to abide by our content policies should have resulted in an ]/] block years ago, and his talk page etiquette is frankly attrocious -- while I have been called out on several occasions for resorting to mild profanity under extremely frustrating, stressful circumstances, Catflap08 almost immediately makes everything personal, he refuses to discuss content in a clear and cordial manner (often posting content disputes to AN and ANI), and at least half of his talk page comments are sarcastic barbs at other users. I don't know why this problem was not dealt with a long time ago, and I am frankly baffled at how many users he has somehow managed to convince this is all ''my'' fault. | |||

So, royals are quite an interest of mine and I had a question regarding the Empress of Japan (not the current title holder but, the actual title itself) and thought I'd come here to extend an olive branch and ask for your help. I now see you're busy with something big so I won't bother but, I will say, regardless of our differences (or whatever you may want to call them), having been invited/notified to/of a conversation and then blocked for taking part in said conversation seems downright bizarre to me. Should that ever be brought up at ANI, I would support you. Whenever you have more time, if you wouldn't mind pinging me here, I'd be interested in knowing if you had any info about the aforementioned title (specifically: consorts, not any of the eight regnants).] (]) 00:55, 29 September 2015 (UTC) | |||

I thankfully didn't, but for your own sake it might be better to title talk (even user talk) threads based on their content. "Woah" looks more like the first word in "Woah. I was going to start an ANI thread on you because you disagreed with me on this or that talk page, but I guess I'll just wait and see if ArbCom permabans you".

:@]: By the way, I'm asking why you blocked me so I can reflect on what I did and decide whether or not to appeal. There are a number of possible reasons you might think the above quote was unacceptable, including (1) you think I was threatening to abuse GAR to pursue a personal vendetta rather than to improve the encyclopedia; (2) <del>you think CurtisNaito's article edits are awesome and for me to criticize them constitutes a personal attack;</del><small>See below. ] (<small>]]</small>) 23:21, 2 October 2015 (UTC)</small> (3) you think what I said constituted a threat (as CurtisNaito keeps claiming all my peace offerings are, at least back to ) and regardless of its merit it created a hostile editing environment; (4) you think it violated some policy I am not aware of regarding off-wiki drafts or some such... (I'm going to stop there.) | |||
==] nomination of ]== | |||
:If (1): As I have already clarified, the GA criteria indicate that those articles should be either improved to bring them up to legitimate GA status, or reassessed. CurtisNaito's track record of OWNership and edit-warring indicates that the former is impossible, leaving the latter option. Reassessing those articles would be in accordance with content policy, and I wasn't actually threatening to do so anyway; I was threatening ''not'' to do so. In my two years of arguing with CurtisNaito, I have in all but one occasion (the ] article) chosen the carrot over the stick. | |||
] | |||
:<del>If (2): You should express that opinion in an appropriate forum like an article talk page or the currently open History of Japan GAR. Blocking one side of a content dispute because you happen to agree with the other is inappropriate, especially when the other side has explicitly violated an ANI final warning numerous times over the past two weeks. (Note that ] this is why you blocked me. I'm grabbing at straws.)</del><small>Sorry. Just noticed . ] (<small>]]</small>) 23:21, 2 October 2015 (UTC)</small> | |||
:If (3): You may be right, but look what I have had to deal with: CurtisNaito has requested four times in the last five months, on both ANI and ArbCom, that I be ''site-banned'' for disagreeing with his edits, even though pretty much everyone else disagrees with them too. If there's a hostile editing environment, I'm not the one to blame. And as in (1) above, it was not a threat anyway -- I was offering a favour in exchange for CurtisNaito granting me the favour of not requesting that I be site-banned anymore. If this is what you meant, it's a good faith misunderstanding, and I will try to avoid such misunderstandings in the future, but I should still be unblocked. | |||
:If (4): Tell me the policy. I won't violate it again. I also won't appeal the block, though, since I've been here too long for ignorance of the rules to be a valid excuse. | |||

:I'm very sorry to have seen this develop. However, even if ] had no problem, a reaction like this was inevitable due to the excited, verbose and frequent remarks on numerous pages. What possible benefit did you think your comment would bring? It contains a strong accusation, but has no evidence. It looks like attempted blackmail—if you won't try to get me banned, I won't point out your (alleged) defects. Given their responses to earlier comments, a moment's thought would show that the recipient is extremely unlikely to pay any attention to the claims, so the post is totally ineffective and merely battlefield conduct. Even if there were no prior interaction with the recipient, there is essentially zero chance of anyone reacting to a message like that in a way that would benefit you. I tried to follow the back-and-forth on some article talk pages, but the posts were unhelpful as they attempted to cover too many points, and conducted battles on too many fronts. In particular, an attempt to show that an editor has a pattern of promoting articles with serious sourcing errors needs very calm and careful evidence—that cannot happen in the middle of other disputes. A case of that nature would need to be prepared in a sandbox, mentioning only the facts and no user names. Further, there should be no emotive language—anyone capable of reading evidence knows that overlooking sourcing errors is the worst wikicrime. Good luck with your editing, but my advice would be to take a lot longer to respond to a discussion—fewer posts, each focused on a small number of points relating to text in articles (not editors), with evidence. ] (]) 05:32, 3 October 2015 (UTC) | |||

@ArbCom: Just for the record, is an outright lie. The list was meant to be a database of SPAs operating in Japan-Korea dispute areas. There is very clearly a massive sockpuppetry problem in that area, and I was trying to figure out who was whose sockpuppet. I made one poor judgement call (which I quickly retracted) that TH1980 was a sockpuppet of one of those users (per the evidence below, his being a meatpuppet of the ''pro-Japanese'' POV-pusher CurtisNaito would make a lot more sense). Many of the users listed appeared to hold views I ''agree'' with. It was not an "enemies" list. TH1980 has been trying to throw this in my face for months, even though the second someone complained about it I removed it. It would be really nice if someone could block him for this abuse. In fact, well over half of his edits during this period have been ] of me. | |||

If I can offer a bit of unasked advice, I second Nishidani's comments. The key here is the policy ]. I am sure you detest CN's editing (I am pretty sure there are people here who hate my guts and my editing), but you cannot go around fighting with everyone and flinging counter-accusations. The only place for accusations is a properly constituted ] or ArbCom case. Your "offer" on CN's page was interpreted as a threat, not just by CN but by Floquenbeam. Secondly, you need not rebut every accusation made against you. The Arb Case page only exists for determining whether a case is necessary. The evidence page is a separate one, where you can rebut all the things which someone proposes as evidence on that page. Squabbling with a bunch of editors over multiple pages only hurts your case. ] is an iron law on the internet. ] ]] 01:29, 5 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
==] has been nominated for merging== | |||
:@]: Technically, Floq interpreted it that way ''after'' already reading CurtisNaito's "interpretation", and CurtisNaito has a demonstrable history of ''deliberately misrepresenting'' peace offerings as threats. Indeed, ''after'' my block he has continued posting deliberate misrepresentations of my edits (message that is not an attack drafted in own userspace = attack page, ANI draft made in own userspace = attack page). You and Dennis Brown (and Nishidani) called me out for bludgeoning talk page discussions by consistently responding to everything CurtisNaito said -- but when I said that I would ''not'' be doing this anymore, CurtisNaito opened an ANI thread on me, claiming my statement that I was tired of doing basically what everyone agrees I shouldn't have been doing was a "personal attack" and a "threat". So saying CurtisNaito "interpreted" my latest offer as a threat is missing the point. | |||
:But you are right on what the current ArbCom thread is meant for. I just don't want the arbitrators to be biased against me based on completely off-topic commentary by my not-involved wiki-stalkers (CurtisNaito, while not as bad as TH1980, also has a demonstrable history of following my edits). Especially when that off-topic commentary consists of obvious lies. | |||
:] (<small>]]</small>) 01:53, 5 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
:: Consider your statement that "I just don't want the arbitrators to be biased against me...". Now consider that in trying to fix this, you got yourself blocked completely unnecessarily. Which outcome is likely to "bias" the arbitrators more? At some point, you have to stop paying attention to what people write about you. You cannot go around rebutting everyone and fighting with them. In my experience, many people get blocked not based on the edits in the article space, but on useless arguments on talk pages, user talk pages and arb pages. At some point, either you ask for intervention at ] etc. or if you don't get support against an editor, drop the ] and get along, always focusing on content ]. ] ]] 02:06, 5 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
:::You're confusing my responses to your two points. The action that got me blocked was my post on CurtisNaito's talk page that was meant as a peace offering ("You stop haranguing me and I'll do this favour for you") was taken as a threat/personal attack. What I said was meant to keep the arbitrators from being made biased against me (discrediting TH1980 and CurtisNaito's open lies about me) was all done ''after'' my block. I have tried to ask for intervention on ANI, but two or three particular ANI junkies are at this moment so obsessed with undermining everything I do that nothing I post there has any effect. But I don't even want to fight with CurtisNaito and these users. I want to build a frickin' encyclopedia.

:@]: That would make him the biggest hypocrite on Misplaced Pages, since he already essentially asked another admin to block ''me'' even though (unlike CN) I am actually a key player in the ArbCom case. Although his hypocrisy on the point is already pretty obvious, since he also supported my last block which was a direct result of CN lying about me on ArbCom. Also, unlike your ANI thread on TH1980, I don't think an indef block is appropriate here, so I did not request such, nor would I. A 72-hour block wouldn't interfere with ArbCom one way or the other, especially if a week-long block of one of the users whose name is part of the case name apparently was in the best interests of the case. | |||

@]:<del>What battleground behaviour? CurtisNaito and TH1980 are the ones who have been outright refusing to engage in constructive discussion. Is this because I ''said'' they have refused to engage in constructive discussion? Strmgewehr88, Curly Turkey and about a half-dozen other users have said the same. The only edit I made there in the last 24 hours was , and I simply expressed the exact same thing everyone else on the page was feeling and had said both there and elsewhere numerous times. Is this because I GARed a different article that I had expressed serious doubts about months before CurtisNaito ever even edited the history of Japan article? That's not battleground behaviour; the article simply is not a GA, and I no longer have the energy to attempt to make it a GA. If it ''is'' because of the latter, you need to reword your blocking rationale, as the only connection between the two is that CurtisNaito has engaged in the same IDHT/OR on both pages.</del> ] (<small>]]</small>) 02:40, 19 December 2015 (UTC) | |||

:Shit. Sorry ]. I saw you had blocked me first and noticed you hadn't blocked TH1980, who has engaged in outright PAs against me on that talk page, or Curly Turkey, who said the same things as I did only more aggressively and with less tact about saying them on an article talk page. However I see you actually ''did'' block CurtisNaito, which means your block of me was in good faith and not just another attempt by an admin to prop up one side of a content dispute (you'd be surprised how often that happens in the Japanese history and literature area). I don't mind you not blocking TH1980 -- I have confidence that the issue with him will be resolved soon enough. You did a better job here than I gave you credit for, and I apologize for the above failure to AGF. I'll take my block quietly. (I think the ArbCom case would scare off any roaming admins who might otherwise review a block appeal, so an appeal would just stay there until the block expired, like what happened in August; I strongly encourage ], who is also party to the ArbCom case, to follow my lead.) ] (<small>]]</small>) 02:49, 19 December 2015 (UTC) (Edited: ] (<small>]]</small>) 02:53, 19 December 2015 (UTC)) | |||

I don't care about Ubisoft videogames and I am frankly disgusted having expressed an interest in Japanese history on this site and elsewhere has now caused people who clearly have no knowledge of or interest in Japan to see me as a "brother in arms".

@]: Please bring the dispute to ANI. It belongs there, as it has nothing to do with article content and everything to do with user behaviour. It does not belong on the article talk page. CurtisNaito's outright refusal to listen and TH1980's very obvious hounding campaign against me have now resulted in me getting blocked. That is completely inappropriate and needs to be resolved. ] (<small>]]</small>) 02:43, 19 December 2015 (UTC) | |||
:]: On second thought, bringing it to ANI right now (or any time before either my block or CurtisNaito's expires) might be taken as a proxy appeal of my block (if TH1980 did so it might be taken as a proxy appeal of CurtisNaito's block), and I don't want it blowing up in my face (if no one unblocks me then someone might say six months or three years down the line that a dozen admins reviewed my block on appeal and unanimously refused to unblock me -- ]). ] (<small>]]</small>) 03:05, 19 December 2015 (UTC) | |||
:: I'm not taking it to ANI until I've hunted up, sorted, and properly contextualized the diffs. Like I've told you before, it's extremely hard for an outsider to see just what the problem with CurtisNaito is—it took me weeks (months?) at History of Japan before I finally figured it out—back then I actually thought you guys were all a big part of the problem, especially since I ran into issues myself right away with Nishidani and Signedzzz. It has to be well organized and framed well—especially since it can't conceivably be ''concicse''.

I have no doubt in my mind that you are better at drafting such things in an ANI-acceptable manner than I am, but I have been dealing with these two a lot longer than you (CN's grudge against me goes back to ] and his acting out on it goes back to ]) and it's possible you might miss something.

Probably spend more time on the Christianity and Bible articles, and Chinese history and literature. In a year's time French Misplaced Pages will have better coverage of Japanese poetry than English Misplaced Pages -- I have after all been the only one contributing anything worthwhile to that area for at least three years, with no one even being able to find any fault with 99% of my edits.

@]: Re -- you should draft it on the talk page first. No one who knows anything about modern Japanese literature would refer to Murakami the way you do, and he is ''far'' from being the most noteworthy modern author; making him the "center" of our discussion of post-war literature (let alone the ''only'' author mentioned) is incredibly contentious. Per ] you should discuss on the talk page ''before'' adding such contentious material. " is incredibly inaccurate and more than a little offensive for its implication that there were no authors of note before the war. No one disagrees that post-war literature should be mentioned in the article, but you are missing the point.

:@]: I frankly think ArbCom have been doing an abysmal job of dealing with the CurtisNaito/TH1980 problem. Even worse than Dennis Brown. When I asked them why my conflict over some Nichiren Buddhist topics was resulting in a proposed TBAN from "Japanese culture", ] essentially said "your conflict on the Korean influence article proves you are the problem editor in this area". Apparently, the attitude of several Arbs is something like "the worst TH1980 and CurtisNaito have done is edit-war, but they appear to be right on the substance, so they should not be sanctioned in any meaningful way". Don't worry: once the case is closed and the disruption only gets worse because one of the ''good'' editors is not allowed get involved, we can ask for an amendment to deal with the root cause of the disruption.

:{{ping|Kingsindian}} You are right, as usual, and thank you for your advice. But I think you may have slightly misunderstood me: when in my latest edit I said "this user" doesn't like me, I was talking about AlbinoFerret; I have no IBAN with this user, although I deeply desire one; every one of my interactions with this user have been instigated by them, and even when a majority of outside users take my side, he somehow always finds a way to oppose me and get away with obviously only being there as part of a HOUNDing campaign against me; I suspect it might have started because I challenged a lousy RFC close he made a year ago (my TBAN prevents me from telling you what RFC...). And when I posted the initial request for clarification, I honestly intended to check if ''both'' that other user ''and'' I were allowed comment on the area we are TBANned from on "pages" that aren't technically "related" to the topic. This ''is'' how our TBAN is currently worded, and I still think it should be amended. The AE filing was a careless action on my part, done on the advice of an admin who acted in good faith but apparentky didn't know about the IBAN; I should have thought more about the implications of this action, and I apologize for the mess it has caused. ] (<small>]]</small>) 00:02, 21 February 2016 (UTC) | |||

I also apologize for not making it clear to you in the original ARCA filing that there was an IBAN in place. I guess you probably wouldn't have given me that direction if I had laid the entire case out properly in the first place. Anyway, no harm no foul. Happy editing! | |||

:I think I've come across Marnette before, but I'm not all too familiar with their work. To be fair, while anyone could have read your comment as a joke, and a very careful reading of your comment would definitely reveal it to be a joke to just about anyone with a head on their shoulders, to someone not familiar with the history between you, me and the White Weasel who just noticed that you reverted an edit I made to my own talk page and briefly skimmed your comment, it would have looked like you were behaving inappropriately. I guess my not having spoken up on it myself may have misled Marnette to take their own assumptions a bit far. | |||
|rowspan="2" | | |||
:{{ping|MarnetteD}} It was a joke. I got it. I understand why you didn't get it, and your initial reversion was justified. But to call what CT did here "poor behaviour" is inappropriate, and "DO NOT POST here again unless it is required by AN or ANI" was definitely ''way'' over the top. I spoke to AlbinoFerret in such a manner, true, but only because the latter has been engaged in a pretty consistent harassment campaign against me for almost a year, calling for me to be de facto SBANned (or even de jure SBANned) on more than one occasion, when the only thing I did to deserve this treatment was question his close of an RFC last April. (Ironically, in April he actually admitted that his RFC close had been bad, and took it back, but apparently the wound I struck him was deep enough to merit his eternal wrath.) I tried to ban him from my talk page back in November, but then ArbCom happened and I figured he would get off my back. He hasn't, so I officially told him not to edit my talk page again. | |||

In response to your comment about not understanding why the article is so embattled.... Basically there are three camps. Two of them are in the field of public health. | |||
* One of those, takes a stance looking at ''e-cigs themselves.'' It says - hey, here is this new device the use of which is expanding like crazy. It is delivering a drug (nicotine) that is highly addictive, and for pete's sake the devices and the e-liquid are unregulated.. we don't know what they even ''are'' much less what they are doing to people in the short and long term. What the hell are we doing exposing people to all of this risk? We have to slow this whole thing down and hopefully we can get them regulated. But what the hell is everybody thinking?? Plus all these people are getting addicted to nicotine, which is good for nobody. | |||
'''Announcements from other communities''' | |||
* The other takes a stance, ''comparing e-cigs to cigarettes'' and says: For pete's sake there is ''no way in hell'' that these things are worse for people than cigarettes are. Of course we want to encourage people to switch to these from cigarettes. Why the hell would you get in the way of that?? | |||

:{{ping|Jytdog}} I am aware of theArbCom decision, not only because AlbinoFerret left a similar notice here not long ago, but also because I had seen the case before posting. I told AlbinoFerret this, which makes me wonder about his/her motivation for telling me something I already know. But I am more concerned about why you left the above notice now. Is it good practice to notify everyone who edits in a DS area just to be on the safe side? Or didI say something in my last post that might be cause for concern?

I know I stated on the talk page that I would not respond, but felt obligated to do so here. I'm sorry if you felt I was insulting towards your education or intelligence, but that was not at all my intention. The subject in question sees lively debate on Misplaced Pages, and it has demanded what I feel is a bordering on unreasonable amount of my time to stay abreast with both the literature and the direction the page is moving in.

Re: 'Xinjiang' in apple
I thought I'd let you know that I reverted your edits in apple because I neither saw a point nor an improvement. I say the same thing in my edit summary but with more words; feel free to see my edit here and lmk if you've any problems. I sound pretty rude in this talkpage section—I'm not trying to be mean—I just keep these short for everyone's sake and it sounds especially curt in this one; I apologise. —I'llbeyourbeach (talk) 12:57, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Peter coxhead: You thanked me for my edit and apparently chose to let it stand for four days thereafter, implying that you saw the benefit of the edit. I think the benefit is pretty self-evident even disregarding my edit summar. What do you make of the above? If the majority of third-party input is negative, I'd be happy to drop the stick and just agree to disagree, but I get the impression this is not the case here. Apart from you, I can only assume that a not-insignificant proportion of the 57 "page watchers who visited recent edits" were also aware of my edit and either approved of it or at least didn't disapprove. The lack of a coherent explanation for the revert, however, implies that it was made primarily because of a subjective WP:IFITAINTBROKE interpretation. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:06, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- Well, I agree that the great majority of our readers are not going to know where Xinjiang is, so by itself it's not helpful, and readers should not have to follow wikilinks if a short gloss can be provided. I guess a compromise could be something like "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)"? Peter coxhead (talk) 13:20, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- All interpretations of WP:IFITAINTBROKE are going to be subjective. I did say that I thought the vaguer 'northwestern China' was less ideal than simply 'Xinjiang' with a wikilink in my edit summary; however I should've made it clear in my edit that I do have a reason specific to the context of the paragraph for choosing the latter. You make an understandable point about 'southern Kazakhstan' in your most recent edit summary, but to be clear 'northwest China' is a more vague term when compared to the former in this context—which is strictly geographical. 'Hills of southern Kazakhstan' unambiguously only refers to the hills in the Kazakh Tian Shan in the far south of the country, the same mountain range that spans across much of the rest of hilly Central Asia, while what conventionally constitutes 'northwestern China' contains multiple mountain ranges with different climates (Tian Shan, Mount Hua, Qilian Mountains, the mountain ranges of the Tibetan and the Loess Plateau). Only Xinjiang's hills (the Chinese Tian Shan) were the native range of the wild apple tree is the impression I get from glossing over the article text. This makes 'northwestern China' a decidedly vaguer term to refer specifically to the Chinese Tian Shan, in Xinjiang, than southern Kazakhstan is for the Kazakh Tian Shan—so it is not an apples to apples comparison. In summation, "Xinjiang, China" is precise and unambiguous both in the geographic sense for that paragraph and also to the layman (I explain this is my second point more) while also being the shortest possible; "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)" does remedy all my concerns, but so did the first phrasing and it didn't need to be as wordy or precise and preserved WP:LINKCLARITY; and I hope we can stay off "northwestern China" with what I just said.
- Secondly, also for you @Peter coxhead, I agree that usually it would not be ideal that something is only put in proper context to readers when they click into another article, but here in this paragraph it is straightforward to infer from the context that Xinjiang is a place in Central Asia and it has hills where the wild apple tree grew/grows. Which is more than sufficient context for this article and that paragraph about the original range of the wild apple tree, is what I was saying. If a reader wants to know more about the Xinjiang they easily follow the wikilink. I am opposed to a pipelink on 'northwestern China' like it is rn, because of WP:LINKCLARITY—I don't see the point in pipelinking when "Xinjiang, China" is concise, precise, unambiguous, and follows link clarity. I am also not in support of either "Xinjiang, northwestern China" or "northwestern China (Xinjiang)" when "Xinjiang, China" is on the table and perfect in my eyes. —I'llbeyourbeach (talk) 15:12, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- I think you missed my point about IFITAINTBROKE -- it's subjective and so is not a good rationale to unilaterally revert an edit that other third parties have already (tacitly) approved of. And speaking of subjectivity, your definition of "northwest" is definitely not something most readers would agree with, as most of the mountains/ranges you refer to are kinda in "northwestern China", but only if you take "China" to refer to China proper as opposed to the modern political entity. Almost all of our readers would consider the places you list to be in north-central or even just central China, and definitely not "central Asia". "Xinjiang", to most of our reader, just sounds like "some place in China", and almost none of them would read "northwest China" as meaning "northwest of the Han Chinese homeland that constitutes the southeastern portion of the modern country called China" (and even those who, like you and me, know about "China proper" should be able to tell from "central Asia" that it is talking about Xinjiang and not, say, Shaanxi).
- I'm not sure where you hail from originally, but I can tell you from experience that Japanese tourism companies often like to refer to Kyoto as being in "west Japan" because that's how they talk to other Japanese people, because the Japanese school social studies textbooks (which of course focus on "east-of-the-barrier" and "west-of-the-barrier" rather than using a ruler or compass to establish where the "western half" and "eastern half" of the Japanese archipelago is), and oftentimes it's my job to (try to) tell them that foreign tourists who don't know about Japanese history and culture are more likely to look at a map and consider Kyoto to be in central Japan rather than western Japan. English Misplaced Pages articles are supposed to be written with a "general reader" in mind, and general readers don't know anything more than the tourists in my above analogy. (I have to imagine that no sane tour director in China would use the phrase Northwest China and assume that American and European tourists know what it actually means without an explanation -- our articles on China can use it, but preferably with language like our Shaanxi article that makes it clear that it is talking about an official designation and not objective placement on the map. Our article on apples is not an article on China, and no reader is going to assume we are using GOC-designated region names rather than general-use English. And again, even those who are familiar with the Chinese government's terminology should be able tell from the reference to "central Asia", since no one considers Shaanxi to be in central Asia.)
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 15:54, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- BTW, the above argument for using "Xinjiang" (that "northwestern China" includes other mountains to which the statement doesn't apply) could almost certainly be turned on its head as an argument against using "Xinjiang", since I strongly suspect its not "all mountains in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region" that are being talked about. (That said, I just checked both sources and couldn't find where the information was taken from.) Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 16:13, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
ANI notice
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Nardog (talk) 16:45, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Sorry to intrude/a suggestion
Hi, can I suggest you only create new pages or edit those with zero people disagreeing with you. Though basically an intolerable imposition, the Encyclopedia is nearer the start than the end and it still leaves plenty of pages current and future. Clearly you have lots of enemies here and likely others who will try to take you out via noticeboards rather than engage in meaningful discussion. It's basically the course I follow. Much more fun in reality and productive that way, though the temptations are great, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 17:09, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Maculosae tegmine lyncis: I think I know what you're referring to, and it has nothing to do with creating new pages. You might also note that, in the discussion in question, I was quite clear several times that I would be happy to agree to disagree if I wasn't in the clear majority of uninvolved editors. The "fight" wasn't even mine to begin with -- one editor with whom I have a history of agreements reverted another editor with whom I have a history of disagreements, but in this case it was my opinion that the latter editor was clearly in the right. If you disagree, please make a coherent argument to that effect on the article talk page. That being said, per the below I'd like to disengage from the discussion in question anyway.
- I see that there's also an ANI notice above this. I guess it was a mistake to edit the article in question in the manner that I did.@Nardog: I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings. This was not my intention, and I am honestly quite surprised that this found its way onto ANI. I had a sincere belief that your edit harmed the article, and the fact that another editor whose edits to that article over the last month I have generally disagreed with seemed to share my belief led me to believe that it was highly likely the majority of Wikipedians would as well. I am on a self-imposed ANI page-ban for the purpose of avoiding drama, so I will not respond to you there or interact with this dispute about the IPA in that particular article's opening sentence again. If you still believe you are in the right and no other editors decided to revert you, you have my blessing in reinserting the disputed content.

Deletion of referenced paragraph at Mottainai
I just saw your edit deleting 1,444b at Mottainai. Was rather shocked to read the edit summary ("Consistent consensus against this over the last three years"), which is disruptive, while interpreting a consensus where there is none in the sense you describe. Hope you're not going to cause trouble (again) at that article, per your unblock conditions ("... don't get in trouble again"). I suggest you revert that deletion, and apologise for its less-than-constructive edit summary. Thanks. --Francis Schonken (talk) 08:31, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- I have self-reverted. The vast majority of the "1,444b" was tag rationales written by me. The content was unsourced, and I only removed it because I thought no one was still arguing about this. I have no idea what your interest in the page is, or why you are here. Please leave me alone. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 08:47, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Harrassment by this Wikipedian
I would just like to leave here for posterity's sake that this wikipedian was harassing me on my own talk page, see here. Please leave me alone. I am allowed to make edits on Misplaced Pages. You do not own the haiku page. static shakedown ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ 10:54, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- I apologize if I gave the impression of harassing you. This was not my intention. I went to your talk page because it seemed inappropriate to ask you for clarification of what you meant on the article talk page, which is for discussing improvements to the article, and I was under the impression that the article edit in question was already resolved. After I attempted to discuss it with you on your talk page further, however, you went back to the article and reverted your text back in, without explanation, simply leaving a cryptic message that I can "change that sentence, if want ..."
- Anyway, with regard to the response to me that you have now posted on your talk page, while simultaneously banning me from responding to you there for some reason: if you still intend on inserting question material, based on unreliable English poetry sources, into an article that is specifically about Japanese poetry (the Haiku in English article exists for this reason), then I am going to have to ask you to stop. This is not because I feel I "own" the article or that you are not allowed make edits to this article (or any other article on the encyclopedia) -- this is about repeatedly reinserting content that has already been debunked, while refusing to engage in civil discussion over it.
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 11:07, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

I have unwatched Onna-musha having found your response aggressive
I have left the discussion on this topic. I want to let you know that I have felt your tone to be aggressive and it has left me upset and not wanting to take part in this encyclopedia project at all for the time being. Please consider others' mental health and try to be more civil in future rather than lashing out. All my comments were honestly made, despite the fact that I made a comprehension error (and an error on who the original post was made by). please assume good faith more often? Mountaincirque 14:44, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- I am sorry if you felt intimidated, but you quoted my words at me as though I had made the exact opposite point that I had actually made, I asked you not to do so, and then you did the exact same thing again. It is good practice to (i) not do this kind of thing in the first place and (ii) immediately and frankly apologize when it is pointed out. Doubling down and then playing the victim is extremely poor form -- I made numerous attempts to be welcoming to you and to accommodate your apparent interest in creating an article on female martial artists in Japan, and politely explained to you how, for example, LLC books (i.e., Misplaced Pages mirrors) cannot be used as sources, and you have reacted with nothing but passive-aggressive hostility and distortion of the record. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 14:50, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- I didn't knowingly 'double-down' on anything, I didn't realise you were the original proposer of the move until a few minutes ago. It was a comprehension mistake. I'm sorry you felt my comments were frustrating, I'll aim to be more careful with snipping people's comments in future but I still feel you came back way too hard and assumed I was trying to mislead when in fact I was inviting you to comment as I thought you were a responder to the original move request. I'm bowing out here, let's both agree to be better? Mountaincirque 14:59, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- You responded to my saying that "onna-musha" may not be an ideal title for a hypothetical article that discusses the lives of women of the buke class but that "onna-bugeisha" is substantially worse by quoting the first part and cutting out everything after "but". The fact is that I was clearly never talking about "onna-musha" being an inappropriate title for an article on women warriors like the one we have now; you may not have known this until I explicitly set you straight the first time, but there was no excuse for doubling down after that. Anyway, if you want to bow out, that's fine -- I would prefer if you'd acknowledge that you were wrong (I'm still worried that you will insert LLC citations into other articles...), but as long as you leave me alone, that's fine. Happy editing! Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 15:06, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Request for review at Yasuke
Hello Hijiri,
I'd like to request your expert eyes on the article Yasuke. There has been a surge of media reporting on the man (particularly with the upcoming Netflix anime about him), and there's some back-and-forth in the article's history with respect to him being a samurai or not. There's the book African Samurai: The True Story of a Legendary Black Warrior in Feudal Japan by Thomas Lockley and Geoffrey Girard about him, if that's any help (Lockley is often interviewed by the media for the aforementioned pieces). I'm only getting bits of the book's info on Google Books, but it says something about him being a hatamoto: "It is not known exactly which rank Yasuke held, but it would probably have been equivalent to hatamoto. The hatamoto saw to the lord’s needs, handling everything from finance to transport, communications to trade. They were also the bodyguards and pages to the warlord, traveling with him and spending their days in his company." This put a red flag for me that some of the nuance is lost in the media, which often uncritically calls him a samurai.
Your insight and knowledge would be much appreciated. — Goszei (talk) 04:28, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Goszei: I might take a look, but (i) I'm not that familiar with the Azuchi-Momoyama period to begin with, (ii) Japanese encyclopedias generally don't have standalone entries on him (which both makes it difficult for me to go about preliminary research in the way I normally do and makes me skeptical about the standalone notability of Yasuke as a historical figure, at least as a figure of Japanese history), and (iii) I suspect recent interest in him may be politically motivated: white power-brokers in America and Europe trying to play up the importance of an African man to pre-modern Japanese history to avoid addressing systemic issues in their own countries at the expense of people in "the far off Orient". As a white European in Japan (who by necessity must frequently interact with other white westerners who, despite living in Japan, still get most of their information on the country's history from American popular media) this topic makes me quite uncomfortable in the current climate—and this isn't even getting into the abominable goings on in Atlanta last month and the aftermath thereof. I am inclined to say the best move would be to wait until the hype around the show dies down, then go in and excise any information attributed to popular media sources not backed up by professional scholarship.
- As an aside, from everything I've read, even the word "samurai" is problematic: professional Japanologists seem to prefer to talk about "the warrior class", meaning that "samurai" is essentially slang. As for Japanese usage, Kojien gives the primary meaning of "same as saburai, i.e. someone who serves a lord closely" (by which definition it would be a truism, but practically meaningless, to say that Yasuke was a "samurai"), and below that says that in the Japanese middle ages (the period in which Yasuke lived) the word was used to distinguish certain people from common peasants (in that case, it's a truism that Yasuke and other foreigners were neither samurai nor common peasants).
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 05:06, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- BTW, there's also the distinct possibility that a lot of this goes back to the fantasy manga/anime Afro Samurai: the title of the book you refer to is almost certainly deliberately playing on that show's title. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 05:08, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
Apologising
I have noted what you said. Just try to see other editors as potential helpers/allies, rather than opponents. Even if you're not in agreement, if you remain calm and even light-hearted you can easily win people over. John Smith's (talk) 08:16, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
- I mean... I know that, but I'm not trying to win anyone over. I wanted to fix the "onabu-geisha" hoax, and unless you or some unnamed third party are trying to undo that, I don't see any disagreement, let alone a need to argue or convince anyone. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 12:42, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Edit conflict with speedy close
Retarget Wait, what!? It seems like anyone who knew about the automated retargeting of double-redirects could have anticipated that the bot wouldn't know to fix the said redirects once the vandal edit was reverted, but was this all a long-game plan to TFD the legit redirect 3.11 that I created back in 2013 as part of a mass-TFD of others that another NZ IP (the same person?) had caused to be created in 2019? All of these TFDs were opened today by the same person, and the 2019 vandalism geolocates to the same place. Call me paranoid, but this is super-fishy. I also got a notification that Polyamorph (talk · contribs) "reviewed" the 3.11 page at roughly the same time as the above TFD. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 16:08, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Assuming you mean RFD rather than TFD, then it doesn't strike me as problematic at all. When someone spots one bad redirect to a page (either stumbling across it or seeing it at RfD) it's not unusual to look and see whether there are any other ones that also need looking at - the connection between "3.11" and the target is not at all obvious to me I've never seen it referred to as such and it doesn't get any prominence at all in my google results. Assuming that someone in Australia/New Zealand is seeing something similar to me in the UK, then sending it to redirects for discussion is perfectly reasonable. As for the vandalism, not everybody thinks (or even knows) to check for any collateral damage when reverting a page move. Thryduulf (talk) 16:32, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- I reviewed the 3.11 page because it came up on the new pages feed, given that it is at RfD I marked it as reviewed. Polyamorph (talk) 18:26, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

AN/I
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User causing disruption in Catholic topic areas. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 20:52, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Elizium23: I cannot speak to Natemup's behaviour in the area of Roman Catholicism specifically, but when I interacted with him on Talk:Yasuke and Talk:Samurai, I found his sourcing standards to be woefully inadequate (on the former, he insisted on citing popular media sources even when they disagree with sources written by specialists in the relevant field, while on the latter he cited no sources for the better part of a month before eventually citing Misplaced Pages, while repeatedly vandalized the opening sentence of a relatively prominent article to make a WP:POINT). Despite his own edits to these two articles leaving a lot to be desired, he has repeatedly accused me and others of "vandalism" and sockpuppetry (he repeatedly conflated multiple users with accounts with at least two and probably more IP users and implicitly with each other -- I can get the diffs if you need them), and even made what looked like a threat. I am not sure if his involvement in these pages is related to Catholicism: he seems to be subtly pushing the ahistorical idea that the Jesuits in particular and the Catholic Church in general was always opposed to slavery of Africans, and seems to be either ignorant of or willfully pretending to be ignorant of the Catholic Church's blessing being granted to Portuguese and Spanish colonial ambitions in Asia and the Americas, but it's very minor and I might be reading too much in. I am still, frankly, concerned about the possibility of further repercussions for me personally and the articles I have worked on (his behaviour on Samurai implies he has no problem vandalizing even a highly visible Japanese article for no purpose other than "revenge" against Japan-focused editors who undermined him), and I would rather not involve myself any further, but I can be reached by email.

Between suspicion and aspersion
Hijiri 88, it's perfectly OK to suspect editors or IPs of sockpuppetry. It's also OK to publicly mention this suspicion once or twice, in order to draw the attention of other editors to this possibility. It's not OK to go on publicly speculating about this or representing it as facts. Please take this to WP:SPI and stop posting about it on ANI. Thank you! ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 04:30, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- FWIW, I did only mention it once (if that), and I was only repeating something someone had already said without incident. I then was met with two editors saying, completely out of the blue and without justification "Why are you accusing me of sockpuppetry!?" time after time after time.
- Personally, I think it is super-suspicious that, when someone says "The OP logged out to file this report, and hasn't disclosed the name of their account", an accounted editor comes along and assumes, without justification, that the account being referred to is their own, but I didn't even say that I found this suspicious until like the third time it happened in a comment in which I was pinged (and the first time I was pinged wasn't even the first time it had happened within that same thread).
- I think I've made it clear that I'd rather remove myself from the discussion, and I would be happy to let Wally have the last word as long as he doesn't ping me to do it. I do think TOA should be blocked for the multiple unprovoked and unapologetic personal attacks against me (
Comparing editors to Nazis
is actually one of the specific examples listed at WP:WIAPA -- it's actually what got the famous Til Eulenspiegel initially banned from editing English Misplaced Pages), as well as his continued harassment of MPants, and the fact that he is an indeffed vandal who was given WP:ROPE and has been abusing it, but I would prefer to leave that to the community to decide.

I'm still happy to chime in on the stuff that can still be handled as a good-faith content dispute (even when two or three of the editors are apparently not good-faith actors), and that includes the use of the phrase "Sengoku period of samurai conflict" that makes the Misplaced Pages article look like it was written by James Clavell.

Dangling ref
Hi Hijiri88, I have been working on fixing dangling references that have no corresponding sources, and it appears you added a ref to Aisome-gawa (otogi-zōshi) in this edit. Do you know the source? For now, I have hidden the source. Let me know if you need any assistance if you do know the source! - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 04:56, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Aussie Article Writer: Thank you for the message! It was likely a copy-paste error: I'm pretty sure I was copying pieces of the formatting from Aisome-gawa (Noh), which I had written two weeks earlier. I just checked, and the Tokue article was the source for this sentence as with the rest of the article. Sorry for the confusion! Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 05:29, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

BLUD
@CycoMa and Crossroads: I don't think I was the referent of this edit, but I think it probably applies to me just as well. This was not a conscious or deliberate decision on my part, but rather how things just tend to work out because, per WP:PACT, I have a tendency to assume that whenever someone expresses skepticism about my knowledge of a topic that I definitely know substantially more about than they do (in this case, Japanese pronouns), they are asking a good-faith question and it is my responsibility to explain as thoroughly and carefully so they can gain the same level of understanding and therefore, hopefully, come around to my way of thinking.
My WP:FORUMSHOPping the Utada discussion to WP:LGBT was actually a complete accident -- the initial post was really just a general question that, if I had got a straight answer up front, would have made it easier to argue coherently. Being a straight cisgender male who has lived in Japan since around the time Twitter was invented, most of what I know about "preferred pronouns" comes from randomly consumed pop culture rather than any academic study or the lived experience of myself or anyone I know personally. It's therefore difficult for me to understand the way of thinking of someone who is not an Utada fan but came to that article because of an interest in LGBTQ+ topics. And for the sake of full disclosure, under the influence of some friends who are much bigger J-Pop fans than me, I bought a few of Utada's CDs from Book Off back in the early 2010s and enjoyed them, and given Utada's status as a household name in Japan I would have been familiar with her/their work regardless, but I wouldn't consider myself a "fan".
Anyway, upon noticing the above comment by CycoMa, I decided that it might be a bad idea to post this:
Possible accidental bludgeoning. Clarification of (non-)use of atashi by (cisgender?) men, and elaboration on why it's not that important. |

Just so we're clear
I'm pretty sure that the wording of my questions to the various ArbCom candidates just now would have been permissible even if BANEX did not cover questions to potential Arbitrators who may be assessing an appeal of a ban to which my question applies in the future. However, I feel fairly confident that it does apply, at least as much as my question on Beeblebrox's talk page here (which, unlike my question to the ArbCom candidates, actually mentioned the other IBAN party by name six times). And yeah, sorry about not getting around to posting that appeal yet. It was always a pretty low priority, and I haven't even been able to write any WAM articles this year, so it looks like it'll be another while. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 06:05, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
I couldn't find a way to properly phrase this as a question without simply saying "Would you support my appeal if I made it again at some point next year?", which doesn't feel appropriate. Opabinia regalis's answer (courtesy ping) was excellent, but I'm kinda regretting not going further in on the specific details in my initial question (which, needless to say, was worded with deliberate vagueness). Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 08:29, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
#{{ACE Question |Q=To clarify, I'm referring to an instance where an Arbitration case was nearing conclusion, and in the "Proposed decision" phase one of the findings of fact was {{tq|User X has hounded User Y}} (which passed) while one of the remedies was {{tq|User X: One-way interaction ban}}, which failed, resulting in an alternative solution {{tq|User X and User Y interaction banned}}, which passed. (There were other sanctions placed on both User X and User Y in the same arbitration case.) The hounding persisted for several months thereafter, with a combination of the two-way IBAN and a one-way TBAN on User Y being used as a shield, until the community separately applied the same TBAN to User X. Several years later, User Y (who I might as well disclose is me) found that people who were looking for an excuse to get under his skin would say "Look, he's got an IBAN!" and be unable to explain the context without violating the ban (and eventually being unable to participate in practically any community discussion because of fear of said IBAN being brought up out of the blue for seemingly no other reason than intimidation), and so was forced to appeal. In this case, voluntarily agreeing not to interact is a given, and since User X is still subject to the community TBAN from 90% of the articles User Y edits, interaction wouldn't be likely to begin with. Would you support repealing the ban solely to protect User Y from future "Look, he's got an IBAN!"-type harassment? |A= }}
Arbcom enforcement report
I need to notify you that an IBAN enforcement report will be filed here. TH1980 (talk) 18:22, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
- Further to this AE report, I have blocked you for two weeks for violating your interaction ban with TH1980, which was imposed as an arbitration remedy. The permanent link to the AE report is here. You were given some good advice there from reviewing administrators about avoiding the subject of editors you've quarrelled with entirely, which I hope you'll consider. I'll give you the standard template below, because it contains information about appeals and specific instructions for reviewing administrators as this is an AE block. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:26, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the ] or ]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}
. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" ). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

@Crossroads: For reasons that should be obvious, I decided not to post the following. I was initially going to shorten it by deleting everything after ...cares enough to pay for that.

See my stricken comment: it's not "publicists" but almost certainly a freelance translation agency, and nothing was "changed" but rather a few new articles were added with they. The main profile page and all news articles prior to this week (assuming this was a "batch" translation), including those since last June, continue to use she. It's likely that the only reason for the inconsistency one way or the other is that it would cost extra to pay a professional copyeditor to change one or the other and neither Utada nor anyone involved in the maintenance of the website cares enough to pay for that. If it were me doing the translation (and it wasn't) it would be unthinkable to change the pronouns without also directly notifying the (non-English-speaking) client that I had done so and recommending that they change the older pages for consistency, so it is important to note that no such change has thus far been made. This may come as a shock to people who live in America or Europe and have never spent time in Japan or dwelt on the websites of Japanese companies, celebrities, etc., but people really care that little about the quality of the "official English versions" of their websites: even the great Mitsubishi's official global site has a history section whose front page that reads Presented here is Mitsubishi's journey in the automobile industry since the its establishment.
, says "News Release" where it should say "News Releases" or just "News" (it's not a list of press releases but simply news updates), their Corporate Profile page uses full-width commas instead of commas followed by spaces in their address, and what should be Number of Board Members
is Member of the Board
and what should be something like CEO and Representative Director
is instead the utterly bizarre Member of the Board Representative Executive Officer,�President & CEO
; if a multinational corporation with overseas investors and a massive overseas market has a website that looks like this (definitely the result of being farmed out to a general translation service and then "proof-read" in-house by people with minimal English proficiency), then why would we assume the website of a popstar who is almost unheard of outside of Japanese-speaking communities is better when all evidence supports the opposite assertion?

Yamato kotoba
Hi. Your moving description says ""Yamato-kotoba" has technical uses that differ from "wago"'s; both are encyclopedic and merit articles, but they should be separate articles, and this article appears always to have been primarily about wago, NOT yamato-kotoba, so moving page". Can you explain this further? I have been reading linguistic sources about wago/yamato kotoba and every one of them uses the term interchangably, with wago merely being the more wide-spread term, of Chinese origin. Can you show sources that separate them and show how they "differ"? Xia 08:00, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- Are you sure? Most linguistics sources I have read uniformly use "wago" (perhaps because it definitely makes more sense as a pair with "kango"?), while I've mostly seen "yamato-kotoba" used in works of literary history to refer to the poetic lexicon of post-Kokinshū waka and/or non wakankonkō prose. I may have been wrong in my statement four years ago that the latter should have it's own article: if you disagree with said statement, feel free to follow my lead and continue to not create such an article. I fail to see how expecting de facto semi-retired editors like me to formally renounce all statements from years earlier that we may no longer agree with does the project any good. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 11:38, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- I merely came across this as I'm writing the hu:Vago article on huwiki. No need to bite my head off for asking. Your statement startled me, because it goes against of what I personallyread in sources. So wanted to know where you have read that. All of those sources on the bottom of my huwiki article merely say yamato kotoba is just another name for wago.
- "Investigations of each aspect of these and other properties have elucidated the degree of productivity and of creativity of mimetics in comparison with words in the other strata such as Yamato kotoba or wago (native Japanese words)" -- Taro Kageyama, Hideki Kishimoto: Handbook of Japanese Lexicon and Word Formation. Page 135.
- "Words in the native stratum, also called wago, are words peculiar to Japanese and form the core of the Japanese lexicon. The wa of wago originates from ancient Chinese 倭(wǒ; ancient Chinese name for Japan) and the go 語(‘word’) also comes from Chinese, so the term wago itself is from Chinese. The term Yamato kotoba ‘Yamato language’ (Yamato being an old name for Japan) is also used to refer to words that are originally Japanese." -- page 16-17.
- "Traditionally, the Japanese lexicon is characterized in terms of three strata. The terms wago 'Japanese words' or Yamato-kotoba 'Yamato words' refer to the stratum of the native vocabulary, and kango 'Chinese words' refers to loan words of Chinese origin" -- Masayoshi Shibatani. The Languages of Japan. Page. 142.
- So I would be interested to see those sources that separate the two. Simply because of encyclopedic reasons of showing a topic from several aspects. if there IS serious research about them being different, it should be discussed in the article. I just own a bunch of Japanese language books and none of them do. Cheers. Xia 10:27, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- Forgive me if I'm misremembering, but did I ever claim I had a source that explicitly stated the distinction? My above reply to you certainly did not make this claim, nor did my edit summary from 2018. In any case, if I recall correctly, this is the linguistic work in which I first learned about wago and kango (and gairaigo). Yamatokotoba, meanwhile, was a word I heard in casual conversation numerous times for at least two or three years before that; when penning my reply to you above, I scanned this book, which (I think?) doesn't mention "wago" but uses "yamato kotoba" in the context of wakan-konkōbun as addressed by Meiji-era literary historians. I hope this has been of some use. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:41, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Happy holidays!
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year, Hijiri88!
The other day, I was having a conversation with someone about holiday cards and social media. It occurred to me that, in the years since I left Facebook, the site I use most to communicate with people I like isn't actually a social media site at all. If you're receiving this, it's pretty likely I've talked with you more recently than I have my distant relatives and college friends on FB, at very least, and we may have even collaborated on something useful. So here's a holiday "card", Misplaced Pages friend. :) Hope the next couple weeks bring some fun and/or rest. — Rhododendrites \\ 18:19, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Misplaced Pages's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Misplaced Pages's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!

Hello!
Hi, Hijiri88,
I came across an SPI case you filed and realized it had been a long, long time since I ran into you on the project. I hope you are well and just busy with off-line life. A lot of the ANI crowd from 5 or 7 years ago has either left the project and retired or are not hanging out by noticeboards any longer so things seem much more quiet lately (although I don't frequent noticeboards like I did as a new editor so my judgment might be off).
I hope you can return to contributing should you be grabbed by the desire to improve articles. Just thought I'd let you know that I noticed you've been gone and that you've been back recently. Take care, Liz 22:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Liz: I've been well. I'm not really fully "back" at the moment, but I do appreciate your message. The reason I largely stopped editing Misplaced Pages a few years back was partly because of the drahma, but primarily because of a number of systemic issues not (directly) related to ANI, so I'm still not sure if I'm ready to fully return. (Also, shortly before I was eligible for permanent residency I had to switch employers because of pandemic-related issues, which was pretty hectic, and I still don't have the kind of free time I had during most of my more active periods.) I do still want to finish (or continue) a number of the projects I started back in 2015, 2017, and 2018, and I will probably continue on-and-off editing for the time being. But thank you for your gracious message -- I do very much appreciate it! Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 11:20, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Mason (talk) 19:52, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Mason and Marcocapelle: (Sorry to be late on this.) Out of curiosity, how many articles do you think this category should have included? I've been told (I forget when and by whom, but it was likely between 2015 and 2017) that a cat that includes only one article is a violation of our guidelines. I have, therefore, since been careful not to create categories without including at least two articles. (Hence why, when I created Category:Fujiwara no Teika, I apparently added exactly three articles to it before I considered it "safe" and stopped before adding Shin Kokin Wakashū, Matsuranomiya monogatari, or Historical kana orthography.) But your comments at the above-linked discussion both seem to imply that this category would have been deletion-worthy even if English Misplaced Pages already had articles on Norinaga's other highly influential works like Tama no Ogushi and Kokinshū Tōkagami. (In theory, a navbox would make even an amply filled category redundant, wouldn't it?)
- Would either of you be opposed to me immediately recreating the category and adding Motoori Norinaga, Kojiki-den, and Mono no aware to it? Or would it be necessary to create some more articles on?
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:27, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- You seem to confuse goals and means. The goal is to have more articles on Misplaced Pages with relevant content. So if you can create more articles, please start with that first, regardless of in whuch categories the articles will end up. Categories are a means to navigate between related articles easily, they are not a goal in itself and there is no hurry in creating new categories at all.

request
would it be possible to have your support on the Yasuke-article? i saw in the archives your name and i think, that your knowlege about Yasuke could benefit the article and the sources about paper in Japan about this figure. I am personally mainly interested about the Japanese academic view about his slavery background. --ErikWar19 (talk) 02:15, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, no. I don't care about Ubisoft videogames and I am frankly disgusted having expressed an interest in Japanese history on this site and elsewhere has now caused people who clearly have no knowledge of or interest in Japan to see me as a "brother in arms". I don't know why someone whose account is two months old would be reaching out to mostly retired editors about articles they worked on three years ago, but this is super suspicious.

Cheers.
I know you haven't been on here for a while, but when you return, here's to something like three years of absolutely no feuding between us. I feel like we have finally put our differences behind us and I wanted to recognize our mutual accomplishments of maintaining civility by memorializing it on your talk page. The hard earned honor and respect for our civility is worth celebrating. Congrats to us! Huggums 03:57, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
