Order of the Sacred Treasure
In a context informed by practices which seem to have worked out well at Navy Cross, all new additions to the list of recipients of the Order of the Sacred Treasure are re-redirected to the article's talk page section with the following edit history explanation:
 * people listed here must have articles on Wikipedia and be notable for something other than receiving this Japanese honor -- see "Status: Notability" on talk page

For clarification, see Edit history of Navy Cross.

I note that your explanation that the Naval Service Record informs your contribution to this Wikipedia page, but a quick Google search using Cpt. Oliver's full name and the phrase "sacred treasure" produces no readily accessible confirmation. I did find Cmdr. Oliver mentioned at the USS Columbus (CA-74) web site; and I did learn from reading the Wikipedia article about USS Columbus (CA-74) that the ship was attached to the 7th fleet in the 1950s. This becomes a promising start ... but something more is needed at this point.

Suggestion: If you do decide to create a new article, this naval officer's title is likely unnecessary. Instead of Captain Raymond Ernest Oliver, it might be better to create the article under the title Raymond Ernest Oliver. As you may already know, there is an article entitled Raymond Oliver.

Another possibility to consider: You could create an article named Raymond Oliver (sea captain) -- compare Samuel Robinson (sea captain); see also Samuel Murray Robinson. An example of an excellent article about a sea captain is Ronald Niel Stuart; and, of course, there are many articles about prominent men in the U.S. Navy, including those listed at Navy Cross. --Tenmei (talk) 20:04, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
