I opened a discussion to rename tarento at Talk:Tarento#Requested move 6 August 2020. Any feedback is appreciated. lullabying (talk) 21:22, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Of interest to WP:JA, this project comprises manual English translation of Japanese Wikipedia articles related to Kyoto. It's released under the same CC license as Wikipedia. Might prove to be a useful starting point for translations here or to fill in missing entries. Here's a sample translation for ja:精霊棚. Opencooper (talk) 07:28, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have opened a discussion at Talk:SixTones#Article rename to get consensus on what the article should be titled due to conflicting Wikipedia policies. Any feedback is appreciated. lullabying (talk) 22:47, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's an RfC regarding Kimba the White Lion that users might be interested in. © Tbhotch^™ (en-3). 23:11, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The best I have come across while google-searching is this which cannot really be considered a news article and thus cannot be used as a reliable source on wikipedia. So far I have had no luck finding any online news source talking about what yunika vision is like the above link, aside from news reports when they run videos/special features for musicians, celebrities etc. If anyone can direct me to better place (or way) to search I would be most appreciative. -- Carlobunnie (talk) 00:38, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discussion taking place on Talk:Assault of Maho Yamaguchi#Edit war regarding a possible edit war. Any feedback is appreciated. lullabying (talk) 21:37, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I need to find some information in this book:

• Kaigun: Strategy, Tactics, and Technology in the Imperial Japanese Navy, 1887-1941 by David Evans and Mark Peattie, ISBN 0-87021-192-7 (hardcover). It's also in trade paperback and ebook. Thanks! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 20:50, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Nihonjoe: Yeah, I have a pdf copy of this book. Would you like me to send it to you? Hadassah16 (talk) 03:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hadassah16: I actually just ordered a copy of it. Thanks, though. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:15, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
