Great addition. I've added a couple of category entries. If I can make a couple of suggestions. There is a consensus to avoid the overuse of titles prefering to use the persons name. Also a link should be used early and theoretically only once. I would try to trim the number of sensei in the article - for an example please see the Kazuo Chiba entry. Wikipedia has been strict lately about copies from homepages - there were a couple of places that might be made an issue of - and also the need to maintain a neutral point of view (a bit different from what's required in a club homepage) - please take care. I'ld also like to request an article of similar quality on Ando sensei and Kimeda sensei if you have the time - even a stub would be great. I think Yoshinkan (don't forget to link to the Yoshinkan page) is under represented. If you have any questions please ask.Peter Rehse 06:06, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

A quick question is Ando the first or family name. Wikipedia style for Japanese names asks for first name, last name for contemporary people. Historical people are named in the traditional way.Peter Rehse 00:16, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Marley.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Marley.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 15:22, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Marley.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Marley.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
