Why is the Computer shogi article duplicated?[edit]

Why is the Computer shogi article duplicated? It is in history of shogi and in the article Computer shogi. Mschribr (talk) 10:38, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese form of chess, the history of which is obscure. Traditionally it is thought to have originated in India and to have been transmitted to Japan via China and Korea.

Cherry Blossom OK, The source that you offered is written. "Shogi, like Western chess and Chinese chess, is played by two persons on a board with pieces of varying powers, and the object of the game is to checkmate (“trap”) the opposing king."
Cherry Blossom OK, You are repeatedly writing, "janggi from Korea is a root of the Japanese shogi". However, "Chess of Korea" is not quoted in those sources. They quote "Chess of China". I wrote, "The Japanese shogi was introduced from China to Japan directly or by way of a Korean peninsula". Please write your opinion. --青鬼よし (talk) 13:48, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No sources, etc.[edit]

This article has no sources at all. It appears to be a direct translation of the "History" section of the Japanese Wikipedia article on shogi. Wikipedia article are typically not considered reliable sources per WP:WPNOTRS simply because anyone can edited them. In addition, the standards of other language Wikipedias often varies greatly so there no assurances that what is written is is even correct. The "History" section of the Japanese article is even marked with a citation need tag. I think that at the very least a Template:Translated page needs to be added to this talk page to avoid any copyright problems per WP:TRANSLATION#How to translate, but I'm not sure which version should be linked since much information has been added since the page was initially split off from Shogi in 2008. - Marchjuly (talk) 07:51, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
