Death?

[edit]

If I'm reading this Nagoya City press release Yasutaro Koide is now deceased, and his claim to fame has expired with him. However its a primary source, and I haven't been able to find a reliable secondary source.--KTo288 (talk) 17:42, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The reference you quote (which is also used within the article) is reporting the death of the previous oldest resident of Aichi on 31 March 2014, from which date Yasutaro Koide became the oldest resident. --DAJF (talk) 06:06, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Classification as start

[edit]

Wikiproject Japan has classified this as a start. It seems to be more of a stub to me. Capitalistroadster (talk) 06:50, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Descriptions of the various assessment grades can be found at WP:ASSESS. "Stub" is defined as Provides very little meaningful content; may be little more than a dictionary definition. Readers probably see insufficiently developed features of the topic and may not see how the features of the topic are significant., while "Start" is defined as Provides some meaningful content, but most readers will need more. The article is clearly developed beyond a simple dictionary definition, and contains some meaningful content, so, while I agree that the boundaries between grades are always going to be somewhat hazy, in my view, this more than adequately satisfies the criteria for "Start". --DAJF (talk) 07:07, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Only 1 great-grandchild?

[edit]

How could he have nine (9) grand-children, but only one (1) great-grandchild? Were his grandkids all infertile or something? -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 09:37, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
