Unreferenced BLPs
Hello LordAmeth! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Lock request
Hi LordAmeth. Not sure of the protocol, but perhaps it would be appropriate to lock User talk:Fg2. There is no need to fill his page with stuff like this or this anymore. Bendono (talk) 10:32, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * This is not generally done unless the page is being vandalized. I would recommend against doing this. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 15:05, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I leave it up to more experienced Admins. I must admit, I've only very rarely gotten involved in anything like that - locking pages or anything, so I'm not well-versed with policy. お任せします. LordAmeth (talk) 20:48, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think his page should be locked since his contribution to photography has more potentials to become WP:Featured pictures. Once such featured pictures are notified to his talk page to honor his contribution.--Caspian blue 20:52, 25 January 2010 (UTC)


 * OK, fair enough. Thanks. Bendono (talk) 00:34, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Ref Desk Question related to Japan
Ohayo gozaimsu, LordAmeth This question came up on the Miscellaneous Ref Desk "What is the name of those red and white striped fabric panels hung at formal events in Japan?" See HERE I tracked down the article kōhakumaku (紅白幕). I also used as a reference a section of the Genpei war article that you wrote (re origin of red/white as Japanese national colours.) Which is how I found you. The kōhakumaku article was a little vague, I was wondering if there was anything you could add to this issue? Domo arigato.--220.101.28.25 (talk) 01:28, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the notice. An interesting topic. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu. LordAmeth (talk) 03:08, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

You've done it now! Can you help with another question?, Entertainment Ref Desk this time: Identify a 'Japanese tapestry', from a video Thank You for Smoking @ 2.40, 3.36 or 5.16 or from these stills (only shows a small part): or. Or is it User:Nihonjoes turn? ;-) —220.101.28.25 (talk) 07:38, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Q: "Does anyone know any good books that cover Japanese wars and warfare before the industrial age?"
Ohayō, Seems you are busy, but if you have the time another Ref. Desk question re. Japan has come up HERE. I have already pointed them to Stephen Turnbulls' books and also suggested "Secrets of the Samurai: A Survey of the Martial Arts of Feudal Japan'" (9780785810735): Oscar Ratti, Adele Westbrook, Publisher: Charles E. Tuttle and Company Inc. If you can add anything? If not maybe drop a note here, or my talk as you prefer? Sonnō jōi! --220.101.28.25 (talk) 17:30, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Kura (storehouse)
I have read with interest the articles on Minka and Machiya that you have contributed to. I have written one on Kura Storehouse's and I wondered whether you would be able to read it through and rate it for me? Kenchikuben (talk) 06:39, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
 * A beautiful start! Really, a very fine article. I have made a few small changes; I hope you do not mind. Of course, there is a ton more that could be said about kura, but that can always be said about any article, and you've really covered a basic treatment of the topic quite nicely. Keep up the good work! LordAmeth (talk) 10:19, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, if I get my hands on any more source material then I'll be sure to add more to the article.Kenchikuben (talk) 16:52, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Your photo
I thought you might like to know that I've used one of your photos on my website:

http://www.unmissablejapan.com/sleeping/minshuku

I've acknowledged it by making it link back to the original page on wikimedia.

It's a great photo - thanks very much for making it available under creative commons,

cheers,

 * Thanks for letting me know. I've never stayed at that particular minshuku, but am hoping to someday. It's really cheap, and right in the middle of the geisha district. Gotta be pretty cool, I'd imagine. LordAmeth (talk) 01:52, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Gochin no Tajima.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Gochin no Tajima.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:53, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Has the Korean War ended?

 * Thank you for the invitation, and for thinking of me personally. I'm afraid I don't really know where I come down on the issue, though, so I'll have to abstain. Cheers. LordAmeth (talk) 10:33, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
