Talk:Keiji Nishioka

Things left to do
If you see this, as I know you will, here are some things I'm still not satisfied with. See what you can do about it. Regards, Wilhelm Tell DCCXLVI converse &#124; fings wot i hav dun 17:53, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I've deliberately not included the date when Nishioka got the Druk Thugsey medal, because some sources say he got it in 1990 while some others say it was given posthumously in 1999 with his wife collecting it.
 * Pictures. I have yet to find a single picture of the man that is clear, copyright-free and is not the cover of a book. Or we'll have to resort to Fair Use again.
 * That's it, really. See what you can do to improve it. Oh, and add the marriage date for Satoko in the infobox (with that underlined "m.", idk how to do it and I need to sleep...)
 * I came across Dasho after reading two reviews of the book "Dasho Keiji Nishioka: A Japanese who lived for Bhutan", those reviewers give the date of Druk Thugsey as 1999 (posthumously) so the book probably has that date too. So 1999 is probably the correct date but we can't be sure so it's probably best not to include it until we have confirmation. About the pictures, I don't think we're going to get a copyright free picture of Dasho as he died in 1992, free use is probably the only option. I've added the marriage template (that infobox column is now overflowing a bit on my mobile but that probably doesn't matter).

 * Also, the Chorten and the Museum built in his memory are two different things. They may have been built around the same time at the 50th anniversary of Japanese cooperation with Bhutan in 2014, causing the confusion. this Facebook post seemingly refers to them as two different entities. A JICA newsletter confirms that the Chorten is located at National Seed Center which the JICA President visited, while the Museum is located at Agriculture Machinery Center and was inaugurated by the JICA President.

 * In this tweet, Tenzing Lamsang, the editor of The Bhutanese, corrects his Facebook post (which gave Druk Thugsey date as 1990) to say that he actually got it posthumously in  1999 and his wife collected it. So, the 1999 date perhaps really is the correct one. Regards, TryKid&thinsp;[dubious – discuss] 10:08, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * BTW, feel free to move it to mainspace whenever you think it's ready. TryKid&thinsp;[dubious – discuss] 11:21, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
