User talk:Hkboy99

Welcome!

Hello, Hkboy99, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  Michitaro (talk) 23:46, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Ethnic issues in Japan

I have reverted your edits to Ethnic issues in Japan because they misrepresent the sources they use and use words that are not neutral and violate Wikipedia policy (see WP:NEUTRAL). For instance, your edit stated "a whopping 27.9% of all Japanese women end marrying Zainichi Korean men", but the source you gave simply says that of the Japanese women that marry foreign men, 27.9% marry Korean men (it also says nothing of Zainichi). Your later citation of Chinese women and Japanese men (that "40.4% of Chinese women ended up marrying Japanese men in Japan") is also wrong, since the same source is talking about how many Chinese are among the foreign wives of Japanese men. In both cases, you are misreading the source, as well as using words that are not neutral (such as "whopping"). Also, your statement that "Mobs of Japanese right-wing groups went up to Tohoku armed with crude weapons prepared to kill any Chinese looters they should come across and bury them in the rubble" is simply not to be found in the source, which simply says one right-winger, Kudo, "went up to Tohoku with a small group armed with crude weapons prepared to kill any Chinese looters they should come across and bury them in the rubble." A small group is not "mobs or Japanese right-wing groups." This is again a misinterpretation or possibly misrepresentation of the source, one that can again be thought to be not-neutral. I see you are new to Wikipedia, so I suggest before you make any more edits, you carefully read WP:FIVEPILLARS. I will revert your reversion of my reversion.

Let me just add that I am not objecting to you trying to expand and improve the article. But it seems that as a new user, you are not yet familiar with Wikipedia policies (also see WP:CCPOL) and have produced edits that can be seen as violating WP:NEUTRAL or WP:VERIFIABILITY. You are welcome to return to the article and make contributions that are accurately sourced using reliable sources and are written from a neutral point of view.

March 2016

Hello, I'm Michitaro. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Ethnic issues in Japan has been undone because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Reverting edits without responding to a civil request to discuss the issue is vandalism. Please stop and discuss the issue. Michitaro (talk) 23:50, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Please describe what exactly it is that you claim I am falsifying, exaggerating, or overall being dishonest about? Otherwise it is indeed you, who is guilty of your own accusations, and of course vandalism. Thank you.

I have given three examples in the section above. Michitaro (talk) 23:55, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Ethnic issues in Japan. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Again, you should not restore problematic edits that have already been shown to be problematic. A discussion has begun on your talk page and you should discuss the issue there before restoring any edits. Michitaro (talk) 00:04, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Ethnic issues in Japan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 00:06, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
