If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

My apologies for being slow to answer your request; I shall not have time to give a considered answer until next week. Some suggestions:

• Ask UtherSRG (talk · contribs), who deleted the first version
• Post at WP:Requests for feedback
• Ask at WP:WikiProject Japan for advice about how to cite Japanese books.

Hi. I see that Shunsuke Miyake is now back in the main encyclopedia, so that this "userfied" copy is no longer necessary. It's not a good idea to have parallel versions of an article; if you would be kind enough to put {{db-u1}} (two curly brackets each side) at the top of the userspace version (which means "user requests deletion of a user sub-page"), that would be the simplest way to get rid of it.

Thank you for your contributions to this article. Please use a citation

I haven't quite figured out what to do with the list in History of Ryukus yet. Right now, your list would remain there as well, until one of us (or somebody else) figures out what to do with it. For some of the personalities, it might be better if they were worked into the article. But this does not seem appropriate to me for, say, artists. Student7 (talk) 12:11, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again for all your improvements to the article.

I copied the list into Okinawa and realized there what the problem is. The list must be for people who were prominent outside of Ryukyus/Okinawa. A prime minister of Japan, for example. They cannot be notable only within for this level of article. They can be notable for their local area, like Naha, for example.

As a matter of editing, material is severely cut for listing them in notables since their is a link which the interested reader may go. We don't need to summarize beyond "politician" or something similarly terse. I will copy back the list which I am editing onto the former list. You will notice that most have disappeared. Sorry about that! Student7 (talk) 19:30, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about deleting someone who is famous outside of Ryukyus/Okinawa. Please replace. You might include that they are notable "in Japan." For this high level article, they need to be notable outside the area listed. All you have listed would be notable at the city/town level. Student7 (talk) 18:02, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Had no idea, until now that there were four prefectures. If this was in other articles, I missed it.

You write good articles. If you say Kanzen Teruya is famous outside his prefecture/Okinawa, then it must be true!  :)

I will take a look at the history and put it on my watch list. I don't think I have time right now. It is tough translating. I once edited an article on Thessalonika that had just been translated from French. The adjectives were all in the wrong places and there were a lot of grammar problems left over from the machine translation. It took a long time. After I was finished (or thought I was) an editor came in and complained that the article was "unreadable." I was shocked. Then I read the article. I had to agree! It was better than it was, but maybe the original (in French) wasn't that great either!  :)

Drop the Kanji, BTW. We don't use non-English material except maybe for article names. Will have to use for footnotes and references, most likely. That can't be avoided.

I have the same criticism of the "foreigners" section as I had with Ryukus. It makes it seem Western-centric for starters. For another, unless they were notable outside the prefecture, they should be dropped from this level. Town article okay. Also, they should be merged with Japanese figures and just call the subsection "notables." BTW, "notable" section are rare in History articles. Probably should be dropped IMO.

I will "watch" the article but won't make changes quite yet. Thanks. Student7 (talk) 12:56, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but we are not trying to "help" the Chinese understand the article. They have their own Wikipedia. We are having our hands full helping English speakers!  :) We leave non-English alphabets and words behind in the English Wikipedia. See

WP:EN. We even use English terms for European places, "Florence, Italy" not 'Firenz;" "Austria" not "Oesterreich" which is the native term. When it's the topic of the article, it might be explained somewhere. Basically, we're not trying to teach anyone a foreign language. And if they don't understand English, they might be better off using their own Wikipedia. Student7 (talk) 15:11, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply

Hi. Based on your work on Fires in Edo, I have completed a full translation from ja:江戸の火事. Since I am only seriously getting into the Japanese language most recently, a limited vocabulary forced me to resort to various online dictionaries in many occasions, most prominently Yahoo! 辞書. Neither can I claim that I am 100% sure that I understand every sentence in the original text correctly. Given that you originated the article here and therefore quite familiar with the original version, can you help proofread the article? Kxx (talk | contribs) 07:41, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding these new articles to Wikipedia. Wikipedia in principle uses modified Hepburn for romanizing Japanese, so it should be Domei or Dōmei, not Doumei (unless you can confirm that that an aberrant romanization is the generally known form in English). Domei is fine, but clearly Dōmei is more accurate. Depending on your computer, you can produce a character with a macron with regular typing, but Wikipedia also allows you to insert it. Depending on the skin you use, on the editing page, there should be a "Special characters" tab at the top (or bottom, in some cases). Click on it and a long list of special characters appears, including all of the vowels with macrons. Click on the character and it appears in the text you are editing. I hope this helps!

Great article! I tweaked it a lot to coincide with English, as commonly used. I imagine you have noticed that there are a lot of Japanese articles missing that can't be linked to yet. A lot of work to be done out there. I've got it on my watchlist and will be making some changes to it later.

Good work! Thanks for the heads-up. I might not have seen the article otherwise. Student7 (talk) 13:03, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Neat link. Which translated to command structure.

We had military and naval districts in the US at one time. These tended to make a lot more sense in the 19th and maybe into the 20th century. The US finally did away with those maybe 20-30 years ago. Heading these districts was often a last job for a general or admiral, who then retired. Student7 (talk) 22:27, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The English article

Oh, and then update the English articles when you get an answer! Actually, there are two hard parts of this: translation to Japanese of the very short triploid article. Translations are always time consuming. And updating back, if you get any feedback. Though the latter shouldn't be as hard as the first translation since there is an article there already.

Thanks! :) Student7 (talk) 12:36, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much. I have just returned the book to the Library, so I am going to confirm the sentences next time. I might have coined a word. The Japanese for it was 4-times as against triploid was 3 times. Guess. In the book was the name of the author of this point(professor in Hiroshima?) The author himself could not explain the phenomenon. So why can I explain ? I am thinking of sending an e-mail to him, if possible. --Ichiro Kikuchi (talk) 12:47, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have done a bit of copy editing as you requested, but I have a suggestion. While I do not know where you got the translation of the excerpts from the diary—or whether you did them yourself—I am afraid they are not of the level sufficient to do justice to Issa's literary skill. This is something a professional with much skill in translation should do. Unless you can find a better translation, I would strongly suggest cutting out the "Examples" section.
