Talk:Yayoi Kusama/Archive 1

Untitled
Hi-- I wrote the article on Yayoi Kusama which you cited (art & the search for sanity). It also appears at http://www.traces.ws/kusama.htm I also posted the encyclopedia entry. Sorry for the confusion...Just wanted to let you know that it was not a deliberate case of infringement. I'd like to keep the copyright for the article as it originally appeared, but if its possible, I'd also like to make the encyclopedia entry available as a copylefted document. If that isn't possible, sorry for the trouble. If you'd like to verify this please feel free to email me via the link that appears with the article. Thanks very much for your time. --S. Nees

I could see a Yoko Ono reference, but Superchunk? Come on. That doesn't belong here. And seriously, this whole "pop culture references" thing on wikipedia is spam and it must be stopped - it's no better than "trivia" 72.68.208.171 (talk) 17:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Suggested edit for structure of the article
Hi all,

I noticed that a lot of Kusama's personal life is covered in the various sections under the 'career' heading. I understand that a lot of her work was influenced by her personal experiences and her struggles with mental illness. I propose, however, restructuring the page to separate "Career" and "Personal Life" sections as per the usual Wikipedia biography format. I also think that a lot of what is covered in the introduction can be trimmed down and moved to the more detail-oriented sections of the article.

Thoughts?

Pronunciation of name
Can somebody add a well-sourced guide to the correct pronunciation of the artist’s name? The correct Japanese enunciation is not at all obvious to an English speaker. A brief audio clip would also be a useful addition to the article. Reify-tech (talk) 12:02, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
