The guidelines I feel most strongly about are the notability guidelines (particularly the general notability guideline), the manual of style for disambiguation pages (particularly the one against partial title matches), the hatnote guidelines (particularly the one against disambiguating article names that are not ambiguous), and the article title guidelines (particularly those about precision and disambiguation). If you are interested in working on disambiguation pages, I would recommend reading "Disambiguation Dos and Don'ts". If you are interested in creating new articles, I would recommend reading "The answer to life, the universe, and everything".

Can you help?

I feel that these articles need improvement.

Anime

Masamune Needs additional information under cultural occurrences, as both Masamune and Muramasa appear often in anime and manga.
John DiMaggio I recognized his voice in Howls Moving Castle, but can't confirm it from IMDB, if someone can find proof so that it can be added to his Filmography.
Tetsurō Araki This page needs significantly more information.
