Naka River

Hi Neier, Turns out there are other Naka Rivers, including one in Tochigi-Ibaraki (the others are not in eastern Honshu). Don't know which one the article's about. Fg2 11:01, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am not surprised that there's more than one. I scanned ja:中川, but it didn't seem to mention the Ibaraki one, but, it brings up ja:新中川. Actually, I misread the Japanese page to say it empties to the Pacific in Saitama – I fixed that. Neier 11:13, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh. I see now. The Japanese don't need to distinguish between 中 and 那珂. More comments on the talk page. Neier 11:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and thank you for improving articles I started. I have replied on Naka River's talk page. - Darwinek 11:26, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

subst: Fc and Nft templates

Hi, I noticed you made some edits with the summary "subst: Fc and Nft templates". I'm not complaining, but can you tell me what the reason is? Does it use more server power or something? I generally like to use them because my fingers are much lazier than my brain. Slumgum T. C. 23:27, 20 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info. I did think that "subst" was a needless extra, like the word "template" in {{Template:Arsenal F.C. Squad}}, but now I know better. sʟυмɢυм • т • c 19:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Basketball

As you can see, I am not considering a forfeit a legitimate game outcome, although I do concede the point. I think, though, that it is a safe assumption inasmuch as that for major athletic events (whether it is a professional league or something like this) we routinely assume that teams won't forfeit games. Although FIBA happens to have this silly system with the points, I think any high-level league would subject a team to rather harsh discipline if it forfeited a game, but it is such an extraordinary and bizarre situation it is always assumed that won't happen. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.42.16.135 (talk • contribs) .

AFD

Hi, Neier. You might want to weigh in here also: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shoko Goto. It was my contention during the deletion talk for List of Japanese female porn stars (saved in my workspace) that this editor had this list deleted by dishonest means with the intention of then emptying the category. He seems to be following through on that prophecy. Once both the list and the category are deleted, Wikipedia will have been effectively censored of all mention of Japanese adult model/actresses. Dekkappai 17:53, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dekkappai, you seem to be under the false impression that I delete articles on WP. However, I'm not an admin, and all articles to be deleted must go through the AfD process. --- Hong Qi Gong 17:55, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, Neier, I didn't mean to give the impression that I was trying to sway your recommendation at the discussion. My recommendation, if the list hadn't been deleted, would be to keep her name on the list. But that list was deleted, somehow, somewhere, sometime with the implication that a category (i.e., individual articles) was appropriate... The party nominating the deletion by paring it down to a category and stating, "This list really does not serve any purpose. That's what Categories are for. In fact there is a Category:Japanese_porn_stars" is completely innocent, of course. Dekkappai 18:09, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tama Plaza

Hello, Neier. Since you are a leader in Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains in Japan, which I am a member of, may I ask you for your help? I found the Tama Plaza article while searching for Yokohama-related articles. I think it should be moved to Tama Plaza Station or Tama-Plaza Station, and linked from Tōkyū Den-en-toshi Line. Can you please determine where and how to move it to? (Also please feel free to move it, too.) Thank you for your help.--Endroit 16:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

At first, it looked like a similar problem exists with Azamino, which User:Tangotango solved by creating a new article Azamino Station; but, both of those articles have separate Japanese links. There is no article for たまプラーザ (just たまプラーザ駅) on the Japanese wiki, so I agree with you that it is a good idea to redirect this one to Tama-Plaza Station (with another redirect from Tama Plaza Station). Neier 23:15, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. It looks very good now.--Endroit 03:44, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Railroad station names

Hi Neier,

As you can tell from Uetsu Main Line, I can't figure out how to name railroad stations. One of the things I find hardest to decide is what to write as separate words, what to hyphenate, and what to write as a single word. For example, in Uetsu Main Line, we now have Echigo-Hayakawa and Echigo-Kangawa, Uzen-Mizusawa and Uzen-Oyama (hyphenated) but Ugohonjo, Ugoiwaya, Ugokameda, Ugoushijima (solid, i.e. as a single word). I'm having trouble grasping the pattern. Of course, I personally don't know what pattern I follow with Kita and other compass directions. I guess you could say I'm lost! Fg2 21:08, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I like hyphens after directionals, unless I find proof that JR says otherwise. This site is very helpful in that regard, with actual pictures of the signs on most platforms. I thought Ugo- should be hyphenated as well (Like Echigo- and Uzen-). But, the pictures state otherwise. I don't understand the difference between Higashi-Sakata and Minamichōkai; so, I can't explain that pattern either. But, at least it's sourced. :-) Neier 22:10, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks for the source. I guess I'll remain lost but at least I know where to find further information. Thanks Fg2 06:47, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Macrons

Re: your suggestion on macrons for the prefectures, it might also be wise to highlight Kyūshū and Honshū as well while we're at it. Both these articles have the macron titles but then use the non-macroned "Kyushu" and "Honshu" in the bodies of the articles. Bobo12345 13:33, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One Village One Product

Neier, thanks for working on the template in the OVOP article. I've been using the nihongo template for instances when the English is an approximation to the Japanese but differs in some way (reversed names, names that have a component not translated such as "-eki" etc.) but haven't been using it for honest English. Now it makes more sense, seeing that it eliminates an extra pair of parentheses. I'll start doing it that way. Fg2 11:09, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Redundant Categories

Well, as you see, in Japanese wikipedia, all stations are sorted into category named after railway companies. I don't think it's troubling with TOC using Romaji such as Ka, Chi, Kya. About what you called redundant categories, I dare say that categories named after lines are not needed. (Actually, however, I can't revise all of the stations in those categories.) Moreover, it differs from Japanese wikipedia's style and is confusing, I think... --Izumi5 13:06, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I want to say there is somebody who wants to search directly from station name, and others will search from line name. So, how about sorting station articles into both categories named line name and company name? --Izumi5 09:01, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hm... I just want it the same as Japanese one, and there is ja:Category:日本の鉄道駅 sorted by romaji, but ja:Category:東日本旅客鉄道 exists and it contains all of East Japan Railway Company stations. Also, there are still articles unsorted by line names (but for Tōhoku area). At any rate, this site has biggest server, at least larger than Japanese one, you know.--Izumi5 12:47, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Right-o! This kind of sorting may fit an ideal. I say sorry for you that I have neglected the talk page. I should be more careful... I will start from now on! (from Category:East Japan Railway Company)--Izumi5 14:05, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Popular culture sections

Hi Neier,

Just a note about Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Japan#"X in popular culture" sections of articles. Although so far three editors have spoken in favor of removing trivia sections and none against, it's too early to declare a consensus, so it might not be a convincing justification for removing "in popular culture" material. (In contrast, Wikipedia:Avoid trivia sections in articles, which you also cited, is part of the Manual of Style, so I suppose it has already gotten a consensus.) Fg2 01:03, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like User:Dekimasu had the same idea with his Hokkaidō edits. Anyway, I figured one of three things would happen after I edited the high-profile Shibuya article:

Someone would revert it, at which point I would ask the user to discuss it on the project page
Someone would go directly to the project page and make a case for it (either of these first two outcomes would be a good thing, as it would give us an opposing viewpoint which (as you noted) we don't have yet)
It would remain (so far, so good; but, the internets always quiet down at Thanksgiving in the US).

Thanks for keeping me in check. :-) Neier 11:14, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Japanese people from X Prefecture

Hi Neier! While I have no objection to assigning people to 'Category:People from Satsuma domain', I must object to deleting the pre-existing notations for 'Category:People from Kagoshima prefecture'. Since Satsuma domain exists only historically, and not presently, I feel that it is more convenient when searching to look by current prefecture, rather than attempting to cross-reference with the historical name, or even worse, a local town or city of origin. While some redundancy exists, I do not believe this to be too much of a distraction. You will note that there are a large number of bios are currently categorized by prefecture of origin at present. If you have no strong objections on this issue, I would appreciate restoration of each to the Category:People from Kagoshima prefecture.--MChew 14:24, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

(Moved above comment from User:Neier

Yes! I think that your proposal to make a new split at Category:Japanese people, and create Category:Japanese people by historical province is a fantastic idea! Certainly this would be useful for people researching history, and would not conflict with catagorization guidelines. It will take a bit of work to set up, but I would be willing to help.

Also, since wiki catagorization need not be linear, I do not see any reason why Category:People from Satsuma Domain cannot also be a subcategory of Category:People from Kagoshima Prefecture. In this case Kagoshima and Satsuma are geographically the same; however, you could have (for example) Shizuoka prefecture, which spans Totomi, Suzuga and Izu historic provinces, and contains multiple domains within each historical province. Being able to go to People from Shizuoka prefecture, and having the option of going from there to each historical province would be a convenience.

I stand with you on elimination of the "People from X local city" catagories. With all of the recent mergers of cities and towns, this catagorization quickly becomes pretty unwieldy. --MChew 14:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Poll: "Ryūkyū" instead of "Ryukyu"

Hello, Neier. I noticed that you've previously voted in Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles)/Prefectures and macrons. A similar poll on macrons is taking place until Dec. 13 at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles)#Poll: "Ryūkyū" instead of "Ryukyu". The voting seems to be deadlocked, with many outside voters rather than frequent contributors to the WP:JP project like yourself. It would really help if you can either comment or vote there, although I'll understand if you would prefer to stay out of the controversy. Thank you for your consideration.

macrons in titles

Could you please expand on your edit summary of

moved Ōyama Iwao to Oyama Iwao: Macrons not to be used in titles ?

in this edit? The WP:MOS-JA no longer makes any distinction between titles and the text of the article when it comes to macrons. Thanks. Neier 21:34, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(copy of my response to User:Jefu) -- As an example, if you go to Category:Japanese people, you will note that two names are macroned. Ōno Kurobei and Ōtori Keisuke. Non-macronned Ono Kurobei results in a dead link, and a wikipedia search for Ono Kurobei reveals no results. Non-macronned Otori Keisuke only works because the current macronned page is a re-direct from the original non-macroned page. Therefore, anyone not familiar with the Japanese language and/or unfamiliar/unable to use macrons in their search will not find Ōno Kurobei. This is why I believe that macrons should be eliminated from the title as well as from the categorization. The alternative is to re-direct every macronned title from a non-macronned version, which exactly what User:Jefu has done, although many users will either not be so diligent, or else will not go to the extra trouble when they create a new article involving a macronned title. If you feel strongly about moving the title of Oyama Iwao back to Ōyama Iwao, I have no objections, but feel that some policy or consensus should be reached for consistency. Although we are in disagreement on the title, WP:MOS-JA is quite clear when in comes to use of macrons in categories, as User:Neier has once kindly pointed out to me. --MChew 01:14, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shuri

Hi Neier,

I removed the deletion proposal from Shuri, which is a neighborhood (or at least a place) in Naha, Okinawa. It might be worth merging with the article on Naha, or, since it was the historic capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom (being the site of Shuri Castle), it might be worth expanding on its own. At least I can lay to rest your concern about it being a hoax.

Japan-lit-stub

Hi - it has come to our notice that you have recently created a new stub type. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, on the template page for new Wikiprojects and in many other places on Wikipedia, new stub types should be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and whether better use could be made of a WikiProject-specific talk page template.

In the case of your new stub type, there is no clear indication that it would reach the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any reason why this stub type should not be proposed for deletion at WP:SFD. And please, in future, propose new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 01:07, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oops - my apologies. I didn't notice it in the WSS/P history because it was grouped in with all those other stubs types! Grutness...wha? 01:28, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What does the bit about upmerged templates for others in that proposal mean, anyway? Does it mean to create the template, but leave them in the parent cat until such a time as the 60-stub threshhold is met?

Eactly right. It's often the easiest way of telling when something does reach the 60-stub level, and makes it far easier for them to be split out once it does happen. Grutness...wha? 01:37, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of transfers of Serie A - 2007/2008 season

Sorry, I didn't notice your question in this Afd. My !vote for deletion did specifically state "Delete for now", meaning I fully believe the article should be recreated in the future. As the end of the football season approaches in several months more transfer deals will be finalised, and it will be possible to create an improved version. By definition a list has to contain more than one entry, and when further transfer details are available I fully support the creation of a new article. One Night In Hackney 04:24, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks... It's not a big deal, as I also have no doubts that the article will be recreated in the future. It just strikes me as odd that that two or more whatevers are notable, but, one whatever is not. I still don't think that the AFD addressed the WP:N issue, but, since bringing the same discussion up to WP:DRV more than once is bad form, I'll just chill... Neier 04:32, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My concern wasn't about notability, similar articles exist for previous seasons so unless a precedent is obtained for deleting one of those articles the 2007/2008 season should be allowed to have an article. If you look at the summer transfers from 2006/2007 season the number of transfers made fully justify the presence of an article, and it's not unreasonable to assume a similar number of transfers will be made this summer. It was just that at the time there was no real encyclopedic value to the article and wasn't likely to be any improvement for several months. One Night In Hackney 05:01, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rergarding Stanford Stadium

If you read the Stanford Stadium article carefully, I clearly added that Stanford Stadium is one of two stadia that at the time of hosting a Superbowl had not been an NFL stadium. Superbowl XIX was held in 1985; the 49ers game in 1989. Also, it is dubious to claim Stanford Stadium as the 49ers "home stadium", even briefly. It was a stadium pressed into service in light of a natural disaster; though the 49ers were the official home team, I hardly think this qualifies Stanford Stadium as an NFL venue any more than we could claim Giants Stadium as the Saints home stadium or Sun Devil Stadium as the Chargers home turf. --Jayron 32 18:26, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
