Wikipedia:WikiProject Japan/Importance/Archive
- There seem to be multiple users, mostly from Japan, who have been furiously trying to ADD material to the Japan article. They have been accused of many things, some of which are NOT good. But assume good faith, and try to incorporate their positive accomplishments. Just a suggestion, but can everybody try to do the following ? ....
- Their English is not so good. To fix this, read: Wikipedia:How to copy-edit
- Weasel words have been introduced. To fix this, read the guideline: Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words
- The article has grown enormously. To fix this, read the guideline: Wikipedia:Summary style (Add {{Sync}} tags, and move detail text and images to their respective "main articles")
- Any mention of "Korea" has been deleted from certain passages, namely in the "History" and "Culture" sections. This may be the cause of an ongoing edit-war, and is highly controversial. This is NOT good. To fix this, we must follow the official policy: Wikipedia:Resolving disputes
- Please try to chip in, and fix any portion you feel most comfortable with. SECTIONS OTHER THAN "HISTORY" AND "CULTURE" ARE NOT CONTROVERSIAL (i.e. there seems to be no edit-wars there). So everybody, please try to help out there. Thank you.--Endroit 13:49, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- Japan's best known film-maker; hugely influential both within and outside of Japan. Recently designated Top importance by WP Biography. Kaldari 01:02, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

- Is this page active? I think the atomic bombings must be rated a Top importance article. Bobo12345 03:13, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- There's a fair amount of material in Hiroshima that should be moved to ABoHaN. Not all, but much. And I agree, that article deserves a high priority. Fg2 06:58, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- I support Top rating for this article. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 09:28, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- I support Top too. Neier 10:29, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Group nomination
[edit]There is a constellation of articles that has the Japan article as its nexus, and I think they are clearly of top importance to the project. They include:
- Japanese language
- History of Japan
- Culture of Japan
- Japanese people
- Demographics of Japan
- Japanese literature
- Japanese poetry
- Japanese art
- Japanese cuisine
- Japanese writing system
- Geography of Japan
- Music of Japan
- Politics of Japan
All of these articles would likely be part of the main Japan page if not for space concerns. Dekimasu 09:06, 28 October 2006 (UTC) I don't think the list I made is exhaustive. For example, I forgot to include
etc. The periods in history may be of top-importance, too. Dekimasu 09:09, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- I support all of these being Top importance. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- Education in Japan was added to the list by User:Lordmetroid.
- I'm putting it down here because it was a little strange to add one in the middle of my comment and not sign. Dekimasu 11:21, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
- Support. These mostly seem like critical topics for an encyclopedic understanding of the country.--Monocrat 20:06, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Found: Shinzo Abe
[edit]Abe is listed as top importance. What about Koizumi? Dekimasu 11:03, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- No complaints here. Koizumi is still likely to be looked up by people for the foreseable future. Bobo12345 12:15, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- I also support both of these being top importance. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
