Talk:Earthquake Early Warning (Japan)

More information needed
This article only refers to what a consumer would see. No reference to who runs the system ("issued mainly by" the met service cannot be right). How the system is triggered, and what information it is based on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.197.15.138 (talk) 03:58, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

On what occasions have warnings been issued? Have there been any false alarms, or missing warnings? Did the EEW system successfully issue a warning on 11 March 2011 for the M8.9 earthquake? 86.150.53.5 (talk) 14:44, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes it did. Pacific Coast Highway (talk) 21:20, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Still required ...

 * The term 'advanced user' is used without any explanation of what group they are
 * The term 'hit rate' is not fully understandable
 * It is still not clear how the 'radio receivers' work and how they are switched on — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xcia0069 (talk • contribs) 08:29, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

Small debate point
I know this talk page has been dedicated to improving the page, but on other pages we do have some small debates/questions. My question is why aren't the cabletv receivers simply built into the regular set top box rather than being rented for an additional charge, earthquake warning to me would seem to be a basic right, via as many possible methods possible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.127.245.95 (talk) 17:18, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

Copyediting
I tried to edit some sentences to make them clearer, but I couldn't make sense of a few of them. When I tried to look at the citations to find more information, they were in Japanese. Maybe we could find someone who speaks both Japanese and English to help? The war moose (talk) 03:53, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Online translation utilities usually provide enough context to verify if the claims are supported by the refs. Google Chrome browser will translate entire pages. Which of the Japanese refs were you interested in? Meters (talk) 04:54, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I was interested in citations 14, 18, and 19, as I feel that the statements attached to them were unclear, not because I felt they were untrue. I wanted more information on the topic so I could rewrite the sentence without compromising accuracy, if that makes any sense. The risk that I see in using an online translation service is that the translations may be inaccurate or nonsensical. By getting a user that is fluent in Japanese and English (and I'm sure there are many!) we can avoid this problem. As well, citations 18 and 19 are in PDF, which I'm pretty sure Chrome can't translate. The war moose (talk) 03:11, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
