There's discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 January 10#Bickyburger about redirects for Gōyā and Nūyaru burgers, mostly hinging on whether these are variants exclusive to Jef or not. Help is appreciated. -- BDD ( talk) 17:42, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
I'd appreciate help with translation of wood related terms from [1] : 槫へぎ, 春木作り, 指物大工, 柄屋, 桶屋, 曲げ師. Thanks. bamse ( talk) 10:11, 7 January 2016 (UTC)
Not sure how helpful that is. I'll see if someone from the Japanese Wikipedia can come help here. ··· 日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:03, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
One thing that may be useful to the project is to create a series of glossaries and reference pages which give standard English translations for Japanese terms. We have two such pages already:
Based on the section above this one, it may be good to have one for woodworking terms. Any others people would find useful? ··· 日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:21, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi. The editor Takahiro4 has now repeatedly removed a small section from the Japanese grammar article which mentions how daijobanai is very occasionally seen as a casual verb-style corruption of daijōbu (大丈夫). I've pointed out the example of the song title "Daijobanai" by Perfume ( [8]), but this was dismissed as being just one example (even though the article text does say it's "rare"). The bit about "daijobu" not being conjugated as "daijonda" was also removed by the same editor with an edit summary saying that "daijonda" doesn't exist (which is exactly what the text is saying), so I suspect that the editor has problems with English comprehension.
The text in question seems reasonable to me, but since it is not actually backed up by a specific reference source, should it be left out or restored as a useful example of non-standard corruptions of noun forms like "daijobu"? -- DAJF ( talk) 10:07, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
I've started an RM to test community receptiveness to the heavily revised version of MOS:JA#Modern names we now have. It seeks to move Hikaru Utada back to Utada Hikaru (which was renamed under the old 2008 version of this guideline, which strongly leaned toward Westernized name order). — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 08:04, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
I was thinking it might be useful to have a bot add the {{WikiProject Japan}} banner to articles in categories with the word "Japan" in them. There are just so many articles to check now that it's hard to keep up manually. Thoughts? ··· 日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:31, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello, |
An edit war seems to encompass Kamen Rider Black (character) and Kamen Rider Black RX (character); see details at talk:Kamen Rider Black (character) -- 70.51.200.135 ( talk) 05:51, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
There are two separate, but related, discussions on the Talk:Kamen Rider Black (character) page - an RM, and a discussion on romanization. Input from uninvolved editors would be appreciated. - Ryk72 'c.s.n.s.' 05:38, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
Some input for a Japanese name discussion would be appreciated: Talk:Supergirl (Japanese TV series)#Requested move 26 January 2016. – Dark Cocoa Frosting ( talk) 18:15, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
