Barnstar for you!
editThe Technology Barnstar | ||
I, Tangotango, do hereby award this Technology Barnstar to Neier for his diligent efforts to create and improve articles on Japanese railways. Keep up the good work! ;) Tangotango 13:14, 28 April 2006 (UTC) |
- Thanks! Someday, I hope all of those templates will have blue links. (^.^) There's a wealth of information on the Japanese site; but, without an existing article, I know some people would be reluctant to make a new article about a station that they have experience with. So, hopefully the stubs will lead to more active editors. Neier 10:08, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- By the way, I'll get off my rear and start uploading my 'takusan eki-o shashin'. Thanks for doing all the grunt work of translating the pages! -William McDuff 11:45, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- No problem. Golden week was pretty boring this year. (*.*) I like your goal of convincing ALTs to add to their local area; and, if a few hours of grunt work leads to a few expanded pages, then it is a good thing for WP. I still have two lines to finish in Miyagi. One is down south, and the other one is the Kurihara line which is closing next year. I haven't decided how to treat that one. Since we keep articles for merged towns around, I guess it would be ok to add them. What do you think? Neier 13:44, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I want to see them added, if for no other reason than I have pictures off all the stations from Golden Week... :D (Including Hosoura, which was closed long ago.) -William McDuff 02:54, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- Ok. You convinced me. Neier 13:49, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Happy New Year
editHow have you been? I've had wikibreak of sorts myself over the last few months (being considerable less active), but I'm sorta back to editing and along the way, picked up the usual assortment of style issues, which you might be interested in:
- Brian D Foy was recently moved back to brian d foy by an admin. After the Boyd mediation, WP:MOS-CL calling for normalization of personal names and articles like Bell Hooks and Catherine Yronwode following suit, it seems rather redundant to engage in another, local discussion on this, but it probably can't be helped.
- There is currently a move request/discussion at Talk:DeviantArt, about whether or not the article should be moved to the website's official typeset, "deviantART".
- The edit warring over the Nights into Dreams... related articles just won't die down. Judging from one of the talk pages, there has even been a little off-wiki canvassing, to rally support for the official typeset.
Oh, and I'm considering NVIDIA -> nVidia, though the sheer scope of that one seems a little daunting right now. - Cyrus XIII (talk) 12:43, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- Happy new year to you too. I'm gradually catching up, now that my IRL stuff (job and prefecture change) is settling down. I'm still lagging my watchlist by about 2 days, so, I miss all of the actively edited articles, like Nights et al.
- I'm definitely not ready to tackle any major conflicts like Foy head-on yet. Protecting innocent articles from AFD via thinly veiled contemptuous remarks is about all I have time for. Neier (talk) 11:00, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
New GA
editHi, Neier-- I noticed your comment at the recent AfD, and thought you might like to know that the field of Japanese adult entertainment just got (to my knowledge anyway) its first GA article-- the "Father of Japanese Porn" Takechi Tetsuji. I'm not very active at the Japan project, but if there's a process for letting them know, maybe you could. Thanks, Happy New Year, and happy editing! Dekkappai (talk) 19:06, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure that there is a GA/FA mechanism on the project somewhere. I'll hunt it down, and fill it in appropriately. I really don't have much interest in the AV articles; but, the attitude of people in AFD's is grating enough that I'm prompted to defend anything remotely Japanese-related, if it deserves it. I still haven't seen anyone adequately grok the fact that since Amazon sells AV videos here as more-or-less mainstream, then applying the porn guidelines (proposed, or otherwise) is unrealistic.
- BTW, did you notice Shoko Goto is up for her 3rd or 4th round? Neier (talk) 11:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- GA listing is done - Neier (talk) 11:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, Neier. Right-- I'm really not much of an AV-buff myself-- I came of age during the Naomi Tani era, so the Nikkatsu Roman Pornos and the Toei stuff is more to my interest. What got me into Wikipedia was trying to defend these articles that were apparently constantly under attack-- articles on Japanese models I knew damned well were not as notable, but far more notable in their culture & genre than any one of the hundreds of articles on U.S. actresses. That led me to starting up articles on major AV actresses of the past, and then into the Nikkatsu Roman Porno field, and before I knew it, I'm the "Japanese porn guy"... worse labels could be applied, I guess. Tough work, but someone's got to do it! As a side note-- I'd long thought the "Speedy delete" tag once put on Kyoko Aizome was the most absurd thing I saw, until I came across THIS deletion discussion... I don't know if you know anything at all about Korean culture, but imagine a group of editors working on "The Blues" and wondering, if such a thing exists, if it really has any significance at all in African-American culture. Take that hypothetical situation, multiply it by three, and you have the han AfD... Anyway... Cheers! Dekkappai (talk) 16:52, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

About {{JR East stations}}
editHi, it's been long since I talked to you last time. About this template, I think this is very similar to {{ja-stalink}}. What do you think of it? --Izumi5 (talk) 02:23, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- I noticed that a couple of weeks ago. That template is used in a large series of templates, not just for Japan. For an example, see the infobox of Sasakino Station. There is {{s-line}}, which is very complicated; but, basically, there are many services around the world which use the template. See all pages for a list. Besides the names like {{S-line/JR East right/Ōu Main}} and {{S-line/JR East left/Ōu Main}}, the system also needs a list of stations, which are in {{JR East stations}}. AFAIK, only the stations which need disambiguation need to be listed in that template. I think ja-stalink is better to use in articles like we already do; but, the other template is still important. Hope this helps. Neier (talk) 12:20, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- Wow, I didn't know that that big template was already created. (To our surprise, birthdays on these templates are different by only one day.) Well, I'll create articles in my way, so you will. Thanks for a quick answer. But I don't want articles to be changed by uncompleted template. See Atami Station or Zushi Station. I improved these articles and later User:Geoking66 "improved" more. But some information is missing (like line colors). If you want to use {{s-line}}, prepare well before submitting it. --Izumi5 (talk) 14:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- You can put the colors in. I did Atami Station's Itō Line, and some others are already done; but, may be wrong. See {{JR East color}} for details. I think you have to use the hex code (RRGGBB) and not the color name. If you look at the history of that template, you can see many attempts at understanding it. :-) And, I think that may be a good template to use in all our articles, because it is centralized and easy to edit if we have a source for the official colors (much easier to manage, I think). You can use Itō by adding {{JR East color|Itō}} to current info boxes and line templates.
- ja:日本の鉄道ラインカラー一覧 has the colors, but, some of them need to be converted from names. Neier (talk) 15:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm glad to help you with line colors and thank you for resource. --Izumi5 (talk) 00:23, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Japanese cities, towns and villages
editHi there. Yes I have been merging settlements all across asia, latin america and africa to avoid confusion on what constitutes a city or a town or a village. I have done a great deal of work on cities and towns worldwide , adding infoboxes and creating location maps for over a hundred countries. I began working on Japan only to find that cities towns and villages in Japan constitute actual divisions which I wasn't aware. Sorry to start messing the system up, feel free to revert my edits in recategorizing as I can see that its techically probably best for Japan specially to have it organized in this way. One thing though I would rahter see the Japanese infoboxes convered to standard so we can add a locator of a places in the actual country as the municipal map alone does very little to inform readers who aren't aware of these places where it actually is. I would like to see the two maps one a country locator and the other a municipal regional locator in the infoboxes using Template:Location map Japan ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 13:24, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Re: I must really fit in...
editIsn't it a curious thing that absolutely nothing from that Sailor Moon debate transpired to the talk page of WP:MOSJP? We should write an essay on that behavior someday. Anyway, I just brought up Yahoo on WP:RM. This one could be a bit tricky to argue for, given that WP:MOSTM does not explicitly cover decoratively used punctuation in its examples (yet), but the guideline certainly applies in spirit/its nutshell. – Cyrus XIII (talk) 09:10, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
- Could I have your opinion on the course of the discussion at the Yahoo talk page? I'm under the impression that this Andrewa guy is purposefully avoiding a straight-up response to the points the Support camp has raised, his last reply translating (to me) into something like "why should one reply to arguments presented in a discussion?"; but my perspective might be somewhat skewed. – Cyrus XIII (talk) 10:30, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Apparently, I'm being "ethnocentric" again. Could you have a look at the current discussion on my talk page and the Rossz Csillag Alatt Született article? – Cyrus XIII (talk) 20:14, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- While I don't have much time "to fight the good fight" these days either (no "M*A*S*H" for me anytime soon), a move request dealing with the iPod product line caught my attention. And there was another, rather lengthy row over caps in personal names, though I suspect that one's more or less through. – Cyrus XIII (talk) 20:47, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Re; Stub lists
editHi Neier, and thanks for your help with the stub lists. As far as loading goes, it's very much a case of "sometimes they do, sometimes they don't". Personally I think the master list has just about used up any usefulness it once had, but Ialso feel pretty strongly that any major changes like those that were made should at least have been discussed first, since it's likely that they may still be being used by someone in that form and - as pointed out - the form they were changed to simply duplicated an existing page. Grutness...wha? 09:24, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- PS - I notice that your header at the top of this page says "back in January"... about time you removed it, perhaps? :) Grutness...wha?

Akasako de Fereira
editI was looking at the PROD and looking at the history; the user who created the page has also created a bunch of other stubs on small soccer clubs, particularly in Mozambique, and on various players in those clubs. Could your PROD be expanded to include those others or should I start a new PROD for all of them? Sean ODuibher (talk) 04:14, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think an umbrella PROD is possible. Since this is obviously vandalism, you can probably tag them each with {{db-vandalism}}, with a pointer back to the page I PRODded and an explanation similar to what you wrote above. Neier (talk) 13:34, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Netumbo Amoya for some more discussion on these. Some of the articles appear to pass our inclusion bar; but, without any google hits it is hard to say. Neier (talk) 11:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Shinto Shrine category
editI noticed that you've been delisting Shinto shrines from their parent category of Category:Shinto shrine when they are listed in prefecture subcategories. Personally, I think it is a better idea to leave them in the parent category for the reason listed in Wikipedia:Categorization and subcategories under that Secondary categorization rule:
"When an article is put into a subcategory based on an attribute that is not the first thing most people would think of to categorize it, it should be left in the parent category as well."
Thoughts? Am I wrong here? Torsodog (talk) 01:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- I think that the location of something is a pretty obvious way to categorize shrines or other buildings. I also can't think of any similar category where the ... in country or even ... in prefecture categorization tree exists and where all the articles are double-cat'd like you suggest. I just checked Category:Skyscrapers, Category:Cathedrals, Category:Railway stations, and Category:Sports venues along with various subcats, and, couldn't find any case where the double cat is widespread. Neier (talk) 14:17, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Alright, nevermind then. Torsodog (talk) 18:26, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
DearS
editPlease revert your move of the article DearS. You moved it to Dears, claiming the capitalized "S" is purely stylistic. I'm guessing you probably think "DearS" is the single word "dears", the plural form of the noun "dear". In actuality, the "S" is pronounced separately, and the "dear" is an adjective. If anything about "DearS" is stylistic, it is the lack of a space. Thus, a completely non-stylized form would be "Dear S". The version without a space is known as CamelCase, and Wikipedia's style guide explicitly allows it. The CamelCase article has many examples of articles with CamelCase titles. The title of the article should be "DearS". The title "Dear S" would also work, but "Dears" is just wrong. Herorev (talk) 08:01, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- According to the article lede, the discussion that was held on the article's talk page, and even the Japanese article, the S is not pronounced separately. I'm well aware of what CamelCase is; and, when used appropriately, I don't take issue with it. This is not one of those cases, though. Neier (talk) 12:22, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- I do not see such a mention in the article's introductory paragraph or on the article's talk page, and I cannot read Japanese. I do see in the article, as was mentioned in the anime, that "DearS" means "dear friends", which supports that "dear" is an adjective describing "S". I also see on the talk page agreement that if "DearS" is pronounced like "dear ess", as it is in the anime, that "DearS" is the proper capitalization. "DearS" is not "dears", the plural form of "dear", but "dear s". Herorev (talk) 01:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- The opening katakana in the {{nihongo}} template says it is pronounced close to Diaz; and, the Japanese wikipedia article also says as much. On the talk page, it looks like one or two people call it "Dear S" amongst themselves, but, we have to keep articles at their official names, and not at some conjectured abbreviation. As for the possibility that it is an abbreviation for "dear friends", the title capitalized as "DearF" would probably be acceptable if that is what it was called; but it isn't the name. Just like capitalizing a title as "Dear friendS" would be blatantly against the MoS, there is no reason to change the case of the "s" just because other letters in the middle are left out.

About the municipalities prior to 1868
editAre there any references related with all the 300+ "han", all the districts and all the municipalities prior to the Meiji era? jlog3000 (talk) 19:22, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- How about List of Han ? There are two refs at the bottom of that page; one of which is online (and in Japanese). It has been featured by Yahoo.jp, and MSN.jp; so, I doubt that there is a reliability problem. The Japanese transwiki of Abolition of the han system also has a fairly detailed list of how the current set of prefectures were built out of the han. Neier (talk) 22:09, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

I've reverted your redirect on Jesus Loves You(song) because although I agree with your reasoning, the title of the article is malformed (no space between the bracket and "song") so it is unlikely to be a useful redirect. Probably better to let the prod expire. Thanks. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 13:52, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well, since it could be useful if it was formatted correctly, I moved it to the correct title. Since it's late, I forgot that it would leave the redirect form Jesus Loves You(song) -> Jesus Loves You (song) hanging around... That can probably be deleted speedily now, though; since it is malformed.Neier (talk) 14:10, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I honestly don't think the closing administrator paid attention to any of the comments. Regardless of how you felt on this issue-- delete, merge, keep -- I think that everyone's comments showed that a lot of people care about this issue, and "no consensus" was similar to a snub.

Occupation by state categories
editI think your renames are an improvement. However...I don't know if you are planning on fixing the whole system yourself, but in anticipation of that, I think one occupation for which it would not work is Category:American lawyers by state. The current intent is to categorize lawyers by where they were actually admitted to the bar and practiced rather than where they were from, so Category:Ohio lawyers should include only lawyers who practiced law in Ohio, and so forth. Thoughts? Postdlf (talk) 21:16, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- Yes–I've wondered how to deal with that category, and the politicians as well, because like you said the categorization is based more on where the job is performed rather than being "from" there. There's still quite a ways to go before hitting that wall; but, if you have any suggestions, please let me know. I've seen various comments in the recent discussions (and before) about how using the state name as an adjective is grammatically wrong; so, one way to fix that would be Category:Ohio-based lawyers. I doubt that I nominate all 50 of those at once, because just like the original "... from state" categories, it'd be good to get a consensus before blasting through everything. Neier (talk) 22:32, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- "Lawyers in Ohio"? I'll think about it, and yes, the politician categories have the same issue. Which is why personally I've always thought subnational occupation categories should be limited only to such examples, where the occupation naturally intersects with that particular subnational location because it is intrinsically local in practice. But that's another discussion... Postdlf (talk) 23:50, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

I think you can put the image you cropped and put in the Wikimedia Commons into the general Japan template, but I'm not sure how to do it. I thought you might want to know what I was looking into. There is some housekeeping that probably needs to be done around the templates you worked with. -Theanphibian (talk • contribs) 18:20, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
editHi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 11:22, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
