Request for input at Talk:Onna-bugeisha

There is a proposal to change the title (and subsequently the content to reflect the new title) of this article on warrior women in pre-modern Japan. Please see Talk:Onna-bugeisha#Requested move 15 December 2020. This WikiProject's input would be appreciated. Hijiri 88 (やや) 07:04, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notability check requested

I moved TeamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com back to Draft:TeamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com due to likely WP:COI issues and a very heavy promotional tone. I've fixed most of the promotional tone, but there's not enough truly independent references for me to determine "notability."

If anyone is familiar with this topic or the related topics TeamLab (art collective) and DMM.com, or the art/museum/gallery scene in Japan in general, it would help a lot if suitable sources needed to demonstrate "notability" were added OR if editors would let me know that the topic is probably not notable. English-language sources are preferred, second-best would be non-English sources that can be easily run through an online translator.

Editing for tone is also greatly appreciated. If there is an article on this topic in the Japanese Wikipedia, or for that matter a WikiData entry for it, please put a note on the talk page. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 18:12, 15 December 2020 (UTC) Updated to correct first link after "I moved..." and to strike request for Japanese-language link. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 20:01, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the Japanese page for you. --Prosperosity (talk) 19:02, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I found it a bit after my earlier post, I just forgot to come back and say I did. I've also pinged the author of the English-language draft and the main contributors of the Japanese-language page on Draft talk:TeamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 20:01, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This needs to be moved/renamed, fixed, or deleted. Bearian (talk) 17:25, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I WP:PRODded it as I can find no reliable evidence this is a real thing. In English or in Japanese. Not even a single page or reference anywhere. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:01, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Could be a new WP:HOAXLIST entry at close to 11 years. _dk (talk) 18:18, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

This is a stale draft that is about to be deleted but I thought maybe someone from this project would like to look it over first. It was written by a student as part of a WikiEducation program who is no longer active. You only need to edit this draft to keep it from being deleted should you find it to be of interest, either as a standalone article or content that could be merged with an existing article. Liz Read!

I've moved it to Japanese female beauty practices and ideals. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:12, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Could you all please help to fix Tsunami-proof building? Bearian (talk) 21:07, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar

So I made a barnstar (haven't uploaded it yet), but I see this WikiProject has plenty. Would this project be interested still? The style is that of the flag of Japan. Basically, a snow-colored barnstar with the Japanese red disc in the center. Jerm (talk) 00:27, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jerm, Is there such a thing as too many barnstar options? :) ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:53, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jerm (talk) 01:12, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I said snow-white. It's actually smoke-white. Working with white is far more difficult than any other color. Jerm (talk) 01:29, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I uploaded a new version as close as I could to snow-white. That's the best I could do. Jerm (talk) 01:45, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I see no problem with another barnstar. We could, perhaps, assign it to be used for a specific thing. Any ideas? ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:36, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Nihonjoe: I could re-upload it to File:WikiProject Japan Barnstar 2 0.png seeing that barnstar will be deleted for copyright reasons. Jerm (talk) 04:59, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Jerm: No, you should definitely not upload it over that one. The discussion regarding the Ainu flag is still ongoing. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:35, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
