[edit] Japanese Brownies

I'm not at all sure that Japanese Brownies are called Watakushi as this page suggests - that is a word meaning 'I' (like watashi). The [1] website suggests they are just called 'Brownies', but I have emailed the organisation to check and will report back if I get a response. -- Lucy (a wiki newbie - be gentle!)

Thanks, Lucy, I don't know either, not (yet) speaking Japanese, would love to know what you find out. Chris 00:05, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Attention tag

Needs updating, verification, and programs expansion. Rlevse 18:25, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

And we could use most of the articles at ja:Category:スカウト活動, especially these people.

• 秋月左都夫 1858年（安政5）2月24日 - 1945年（昭和20）6月25
• 久留島武彦 1874年6月19日 - 1960年6月27日
• 小柴博 1884年11月9日 - 1925年6月19日
• Houteng Xinping 1857年7月24日） - 昭和4年（1929年）4月13日
• 佐野常羽 1871年（明治4)7月3日 - 1956年(昭和31)1月25日
• 下田豊松 1887年 - 1972年10月10日
• 北条時敬 1858年（安政5）3月23日 - 1929年4月27日
• 三島通陽 1897年1月1日 - 1965年4月20日

and to find how Emperor Hirohito, Viscount Makoto Saito and General Maresuke Nogi are related to Scouting through the Japanese Wikipedia.

[edit] Classification

With a B-Class rating, I'd rather expect a bit more info in the article. I didn't re-grade it but explicitly retained the immediate-attention-required rating as well. Unfortunately, my Japanese is rather lowly, and therefore I cannot grab info from the Japanese article. I hope others can step in. Wim van Dorst (Talk) 20:41, 27 September 2006 (UTC).

Is there a reverse way to tag the Japanese article with the request for translation _from_ it? Chris 02:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

• • I don't know. My Japanese is very limited (euphemistically put). How is yours? Is there additional info in it? Wim van Dorst (Talk) 21:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC).

Mine is nonexistent, that was one of my goals to learn before Sheri died, this year. Sorry. Chris 23:23, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Change to translation request

I have translated the article ja:日本ジャンボリー as Nippon Jamboree. It was submitted as a source of information for this article, but I felt it would make more sense to add it separately.

However, there is a lot more information that could be added at ja:ボーイスカウト (essentially all of Section 2), so I have changed the translation note on the article page to point to that. If anyone is interested in having this information added, maybe they could resubmit the request. --Grgcox 15:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
