[edit] Reference to Minna no Uta

I removed the following statement from the article:

Sakai has had at least one song appear on the NHK program Minna no Uta.

Including a statement so specific like this throws off the feel of the section. If having this information is vital, I'd suggest creating a section listing all of Noriko's TV show/movie theme song contributions, and not just this specific theme song. Groink 23:06, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removed external links

I've removed two external links linking to fansites, using this text as a guideline. Groink 01:44, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Primary sources

I removed the primarysources tag. The person who placed the tag must understand one thing about Japanese-related articles: It is virtually impossible to find English-written articles about most things Japanese popular culture related. One could translate the primary source and post it on another web site making it a secondary source, even though technically the two are exactly the same information. Same thing with Wikipedia - it is acceptable to translate a primary source and add the translation to Wikipedia. If this is wrong, you might as well take down 90-percent of the Asian-related topics on Wikipedia because most of them are just translations from primary sources. Groink 07:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
