This report is not translation from Japanese. I am the text which I considered by myself. It understands, if a Japanese report can be translated and obtained. I want to ask a check of everybody.--LongLongAgo 04:50, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Ah, I see. I had thought that it was a machine translation from the article in the Japanese wiki. English as a second language, eh? No worries. We'll get someone to help with it. --Blu Aardvark | (talk) | (contribs) 08:43, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
  • I attempted to sort it out a bit, (adding a little based on having just seen Maathai speak) but I am afraid some of the meaning was lost in translation. I did not change the translations of the word itself, as I don't speak Japanese. --User:Windupcanary 18 March 2006

[edit] Intro

The intro needs to be rewritten. It starts out with very hard to understand definitions. (It's better if you get past that part but I'm not sure how many people would persevere.) RJFJR (talk) 17:10, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
