Civility issue
As a fellow veteran Wikipedian, I understand that it can get very frustrating to deal with new users who are canvassed off-wiki during Yasuke/AC Shadows controversies, but I feel that sometimes your cynicism like this and this were a bit too aggressive and not helpful in convincing them to back off peacefully. Just my 2 cents and in no attempt to stop you from your contributions. -- Sameboat - 同舟 (talk · contri.) 06:51, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
Randy Kehler
Hi Silver, Randy Kehler, who has recently died, was just nominated for deletion. Not sure why, as a search shows press going back decades. Any help would really be appreciated! Best, Thriley (talk) 21:42, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
Yasuke was not a samurai.
Yasuke was not a samurai, so then why do you keep changing it to he was a samurai. Yasuke was a sword bearer. The whole he was samurai was created by Thomas Lockley who wrote a fiction book. Lockley has deleted all his social media accounts and is on the run since he was caught. He wrote two books one in english where Yasuke is stated to be a samurai and one in Japanese where Yasuke is not a samurai. Lockley was hoping that the Japanese never find out about this Ronten5 (talk) 18:22, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Ronten5, if you are just here to push your WP:POV, then you should not be an editor on Misplaced Pages. We go by what reliable sources say and there are a bunch of sources other than Lockley who describe Yasuke as a samurai and whom did so before and after Lockley ever made any claims.

- I'm here for the tuth that's why I edit on Misplaced Pages. And name them so called sources that say Yasuke was a samurai. Every western sources use Lockley's book as their source. Ronten5 (talk) 18:36, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
Did not change pronouns
Please do not misrepresent my edits and accuse me of misgendering the article subject. I changed exactly zero pronouns. Lemmaille (talk) 15:54, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- You removed all of the usages of "she" in the article, Lemmaille. Can you explain why you did that? Formatting a biographical article using only the subject's name and no pronouns is only appropriate when the subject is non-binary and specifies they don't use pronouns. Otherwise, we should be using the pronouns that the subject indicates they use. Silverseren 15:57, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Where is that policy written?
- Regardless, using the subject’s name is the most respectful and dignified compromise given the circumstances. The subject indicates a preference for she/her; however, these are inaccurate. Using the subject’s name avoids using he/him and they/them, which we can assume the subject does not prefer. Lemmaille (talk) 16:09, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- That would be MOS:GENDERID.
The subject indicates a preference for she/her; however, these are inaccurate.
- Can you elaborate on this, Lemmaille? Why would the subject's preference for she/her be inaccurate? Silverseren 16:13, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I’m not saying that the subject’s preference is inaccurate; the subject of course is free to prefer any pronouns the subject wishes. I’m saying that she/her is inaccurate since the subject is not female. Lemmaille (talk) 16:17, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
