I've been working with Fractyl for a while, and you recently popped in to help me with some Japanese related assistance, so I'm wondering if you could look over my response to him here, and give me some input on whether or not I should change my criteria.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龍) 06:15, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Whoops. When I found out that I couldn't move them via the move log, I tried to move them to cut-and-paste. Sorry about that. :) Thanks for your comments. All the best. Greg Jones II 00:23, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Joe. User:PHG has been reverting all edits I've made to articles to make them consistent using BC/AD, just because we've had a dispute over whether to use BC/AD or BCE/CE. I can understand if he doesn't accept my arguments to revert consistent usage to an earlier version, but where they were inconsistent and I made them consistent (whilst using the earliest non-stub as a guide) he should accept the fact I got there to rectify those problems. He is dismissing WP:MOS by insisting BC/AD cannot be used on "non-Christian" articles when the guidelines do not limit its use that way. John Smith's 11:58, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Dear Nihonjoe/Archive 24, seems you edit YuYu Hakusho-related pages from time to time. I've started a survey on Talk:Kurama (YuYu Hakusho)#Requested move and you're more than welcome to place your thoughts there, if you'd like. Thank you. Lord Sesshomaru 20:42, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Please revert the Obama (disambiguation) page. It should not be redirected to Mr. Barack Obama, a young American politician who is little known outside the USA. SNPBrown 06:29, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
The Military history WikiProject coordinator selection process is starting. We are looking to elect nine coordinators to serve for the next six months; if you are interested in running, please sign up here by August 14! Wandalstouring 09:46, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
A moment's surprise here when I see that this was simply "kept", without any comment. And then it dawned on me that I'd forgotten to vote. Oops! -- Hoary 16:05, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
In order to encourage more participation, and to help people find a specific area in which they are more able to help out, we have organized taskforces at WikiProject Japan. Please visit the Participants page and update the list with the taskforces in which you wish to participate. Links to all the taskforces are found at the top of the list of participants.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you for helping out! ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:59, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
I don’t mean to rush you... just want to make sure you didn't forget about it (you can erase this post if you didn't). Thanks again. Kazu-kun 07:07, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{ inactive}} and/or {{ historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you! Delivered on behalf of xaosflux 16:36, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
We should have history and literature taskforces. My own expertise is Edo Lit, but I know enough of classical and modern to be of use, so if you want to set up a lit taskforce with period subdivs, I'll head the whole thing. My history comes from crossover with literature, so I'm a little weaker there. MSJapan 20:54, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
My new AfD-jutsu is unstoppable, Joe. What do you think of jutsu now? I'm dubious myself, but then again there's all this crap. Anyway, it was fun to rewrite. -- Hoary 07:43, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
Is what I'd call your portrayal of the Talk discussion. Also, per the instructions at the top of my User_talk page, content issues you may have belong on their respective articles' talk pages, not my user space. Italiavivi 21:19, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
Should Obama be protected as well? It currently points back to the DAB page, as it originally did, and not the politician article. Neier 23:28, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
The page on Genki Horiguchi was deleted by you, reason cited being no assertion of notability. However, the notability was in fact asserted by me, with no one debating it. I would appreciate an explanation as to why the page was deleted. McJeff 07:44, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Yesterday you removed the speedy deletion tag from Beyer Subaru. In the page history, you indicated you thought it was notable; more importantly, you suggested that speedy deletion wasn't the way to handle. First of all, thank you. You are right of course.
Today, the same user that put the tags on yesterday, User:Calton, put them back on. I just wanted to bring this to your attention, and see if you might be able to assist this process in some manner and remove the tags again.
Questions, comments, help welcome! Journalist1983 16:17, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Please see my comments on the noticeboard here. KillerChihuahua is wikistalking me, as is Hong. Why can't I make articles consistent in peace? John Smith's 16:00, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Heritage Makers, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Heritage Makers satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also " What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heritage Makers and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Heritage Makers during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Clubjuggle 05:37, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
In response to an anonymous Request to Translate that I found at the top of "Toei Company" as of 15:46, 4 August 2007 (UTC), I wrote a new Top based on ja:東映. I also did a rough translation of the first portion of the History section, ja:東映#沿革, on a subpage (see User:B.C.Schmerker/Article Prototype4) but didn't add it to the working translation, given my lack of experience with the Japanese language with respect to HistInfo. What errors to date on this expansion? - B.C.Schmerker 03:02, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Thought I'd let you know that I've posted a reply to your idea over at Talk:Sentō. It sounds like you might be in agreement that the article shouldn't be confined just to sentō, but rather expanded to public bathing in Japan in general (which is how a permanent redirect from public bathing in Japan to sentō could make sense). Wikipedia Japan's article on 公衆浴場 (public bath) notes the legal distinction between "普通公衆浴場" (or sentō) and "その他の公衆浴場" (which includes e.g.: sauna buro, kenko land, super sento). -- MangoCurry 04:10, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
