[edit] Before I Vote on 'Move Tsushima Islands' Issue

  • I would appreciate a rational explaination (after you read my Comments in the subject dispute Talk:Tsushima Islands), of the arguement or arguments you consider vital and germane to the discusion and vote. Frankly, MOST all of you are being silly over nothing of particular importance, since both names can be redirected into the one used. I have left a comment concerning my contribution to the article, which contribution — seems to have triggered the current edit and revision wars. For that I apologize, but see the Comments on the vote. I am also taking the liberty of putting the vote section AFTER the Comments about same.
  • Still, I have just spent over four hours of valuable spare time, and would welcome your thoughts after you read and understand the distinction I put forth between a governments termonology as a governing body and a geographical reference like an archepelego, which it certainly is.
  • More to the point, I'd like to see your defense regarding your favorite POV of what I had to say viz a viz the mergest attitude of the senior editors and administrators that frequent the Wikipedia:VfD discussions. To my recollection, I don't recollect any of you hotheads in this dispute ever spending anytime thereon, possibly excepting Mel Etitis, but rarely even then.
  • In any event, I'm neutral here, and have asked that the article be kept EDIT FREE for the next three days by placing The Inuse template into it — I'd copyedited over two and half hours before I suspended that effort the other night because this shameful fued was going on — proper English grammer does depend, unfortunately, on whether one uses the plural or the singular. I saved that on my hard drive, but I don't need to wade through yet another 70 edits to finish the job. As it is, this matter will probably double the time it takes for such a simple job.
  • If you are local to Japan, some history of the canals or Sea-channel is certainly germane to the ongoing discussion, moreover, any cogent arguement you condsider being particularly telling needs to be clearly repeated in the current on going comments if you want them counted on in the vote.
  • I will make sure this message goes to each contributor to the article the past month, so you are not being singled out. Now is the time to take a deep breath, for rational concise summaries, not all the arguing that is so wearisome in 66 printed pages - half a novelette, I'd guess! It's certainly a lot to ask your fellow editors to wade through on a minor issue.
  • I will also personally be making sure that at least a dozen other Administrators I'm acquainted with take a look at the debate after the time below. I will in fact ask for twenty commitments, so be clear and respectful of our time!!!
  • Thankyou for your time, attention, and good professional behaviour. I'll check the Talk state again no sooner than Monday around Noon (UTC), And ask the uninvolved others to do the same. PLEASE BE CONCISE. [[User:Fabartus| FrankB || TalktoMe]] 23:11, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Re: rv edit by Schildt.a

Oh, now I understand! Yeah, I'm sorry, my bad, I shouldn't have reverted those. A few of the bad reverts I did were still in effect; I removed those ja- links now. I hope it's OK now. Thanks for explaining it to me! Weregerbil 13:50, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Endroit/Chinese_Romanization

Hello. Please check out User:Endroit/Chinese_Romanization, and make additions/corrections where necessary. I am asking Yuje, Ran, Visviva, Nanshu, Babelfisch, Kusunose, and Saintjust to check and modify this Chinese Romanization proposal within the next 5 days.
After that we should move this Chinese Romanization page to a Project Page, and then request formal Mediation/Arbitration. I would like to nominate Yuje or Ran to be the leader for this project. Or I can be leader also. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.--Endroit 09:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I made one mistake. The text where you signed should have been "romanizations" instead of "characters".
So after correction, it is now:
"Please sign your name ..... if you support restoration of Chinese charactersromanizations."
(I'm sure you knew that already, but please verify to make sure you are comfortable with that). Thanks for signing.--Endroit 23:41, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gaijin

Please stop reverting the Gaijin article. Several users are trying very hard to reach consensus on the article's talk page. Reverting the main article without participating in the discussion is not helping at all. Exploding Boy 03:39, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

And furthermore, please do not use "rvv" in a summary unless you are reverting vandalism. A content dispute is never vandalism, and we admins hate seeing false positives. thank you. --Golbez 19:10, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR

you've been reported for violation of WP:3RR. please undo your last revert. thank you. Appleby 21:44, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ijime

why don't you explain your just reason for deleting ijime article? if you're a Japanese national I'm 100% sure that you know how serious Ijime is in Japan, it is beyond what Westerners call 'bullying' I personally know a girl who killed herself after constant Ijime from her classmates. Before you go on to cowardly defend your thoughts by simply silencing others (by deleting articles that are against your thoughts), please think about the REALITY. 139.80.123.34 08:36, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Utter nonsense. Provide reliable sources to back it up; otherwise it can't stay. Read the Japanese article (ja:いじめ) for comparison if you really are Japanese. --Saintjust 08:42, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I'm writing on this English Wiki to help non-Japanese reader have better grasp of understanding Japanese Culture regardless of Negative or positive 139.80.123.34 08:44, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I advised you to read the Japanese article to see how ridiculous your little essay is. And neither of the alleged sources that you just cited back up your edit. --Saintjust 08:48, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
There is no need, my 'little essay' happens to be a just little segment of much longer work that I've done while doing my research on Ijime - I will add more links and better sources later
You are nobody and Wikipedia is not a place to publish your essay unless it's thoroughly backed up by reliable sources. --Saintjust 08:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
it doesn't matter who I am, I'm just a humble Uni Student who wants to correct the fools that try to disguise their ugliness from the world (such as Ijime) I told you number of times that I will provide more links in the future, don't go on and delete the whole thing! its people like you that disgrace the whole of Japan...I bet you sing Gimigayo every morning 139.80.123.34 09:01, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Then come back and post that essay when you get all the sources ready. Until then it can't stay on Wikipedia. Wikipedia isn't your personal blog. --Saintjust 09:06, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Oi shinsengumi! I'm writing an article on Wiki, this place is not for my personal essays..I'm just writing an article, this is also not your personal space to force your rules on others; why don't you come up with valid sources saying Japan is not a collectivists society and rather, a individualists? I don't google 139.80.123.34 09:10, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
That's the rule of Wikipedia. Read WP:NOR and WP:V. BTW are you a different person form the one who posted this essay first? ("I am a Japanese and I agree with this article, I will soon provide more citations etc") And what the hell does "Oi shinsengumi" have to do with this? --Saintjust 09:16, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Shinsengumi is a famous group of ronin from Bakufu era...blind loyalty to Tenno and its motherland 139.80.123.34 09:23, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
A Korean kid from New Zealand lied about the sources of his bogus "essay" and identity. How typical. --Saintjust 09:28, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
you got New Zealand part right son, but a Korean kid? no no, this University network has literally thousands of users and possibly hundreds of Koreans too..you stalker that was possibly the lowest point of your sad life —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 139.80.123.34 (talkcontribs).
Like you are the first person to come up with that excuse on wikipedia. And you are agreeing with yourself. How much more pathetic can you be? You obviously has a nationalistic Korean agenda [1] and no interest in contributing to the development of free and npov encyclopaedia.
haha same old execuse from Pro-Imperialists...I'm under no illusion of trying to make Jews, Chinese and Koreans look good, those are the facts, they suffered under their oppressors, however Ijime topic has got nothing to do with other articles. Its an independent matter. Here in NZ, we only focus on facts, such as Ijime which does exist in Japan and it poses major threat to its People and society 139.80.123.34 10:05, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
You have provided no real sources that support your alleged "facts." Instead you provided as "sources" links to webpages that support none of your claims and that you obviously didn't refer to when you wrote your little essay. That means you lied. Your hateful propaganda campaign doesn't belong in Wikipedia. Do it on your own webpage. --Saintjust 10:17, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Just a couple of corrections to factual errors made above by user 139.80.123.34.

  • "Shinsengumi" actually fought against those who were loyal to the emperor. Factual inaccuracies aside, calling someone a pro-imperialist simply because they disagree with your viewpoint is a logical fallacy through guilt by association.
  • The Japanese national anthem is actually called kimigayo in Japanese - "Gimigayo" is only a direct transcription of the Korean term 기미가요 . Phonemonkey 11:45, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Biased and abusive"

I'm just curious where you see this? I go out of my way to be as fair and neutral as possible in all cases, so please point out where you believe I'm being biased and abusive. I'm certainly interested in anywhere I can improve. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 07:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
