I have chosen Japanese popular culture as my article to edit.

I want to create an edition to the Anime section.

From my show and tell project about Studio Ghibli I am just going to include some facts to help get this process started.

Hayao Miyazaki is currently the president of Studio Ghibli.

Isao Takahata was one of the original founders of Studio Ghibli.

Toshio Suzuki was president of the company for a long time until he stepped down, now he is one of the executive producers.

For quite some time Miyazaki has been mentioning that he will retire, and stop making films. His last intended film was “The wind rises”

He did take a break for a while, but has continued to co-produce movies.

Studio Ghibli is a company that produces original films. They are solely anime based.

6 of their films were among the ten highest grossing anime films in Japan.

List of Films

Spirited Away

etc..

The process.

Miyazaki is looked at as a true artist.

He focuses on traditional techniques when creating anime. All of the frames are hand drawn and then put together to create the movement.


 * Miyazaki changed animation and essentially created master pieces of art
 * ●  He highly influenced anime
 * ●  His movies are renowned throughout Japan and even the world. Especially considering the fact that most of his films are made for children.  When Miyazaki was growing up he had to flee his home, and was a victim to WW2. This helps explain the content of his films. They tend to be anti-war and pro-environmental. He also produces films with strong female characters.  He wanted to create films that did not bombard the audience with noise, both visual and audio.

Japanese popular culture

Inside of this article, I would focus on the section labeled as"kawaii" - I would include information about studio Ghibli, and try to include more images on the subject.

Japanese honorifics

As of December 2013 this article has been marked incomplete and only has been recognized for its sources. It is at the start class for both categories. I would help improve the article by including more of a write up of the sources. That way it is more applicable to the reader.

Japanning

The main sentence is good, however the rest of the article is just lacking in information. So in this case, I would probably just try and add more information to this article. Increase the sources. It is a article listed as low importance and has a start value for each rating.

I have decided to improve on the first article that I listed, and that is the Japanese popular culture article. I will include more information about Studio Ghibli. We had previously discussed this topic over email, and you said it would be alright to do.
