Username change request at Japanese Wikipedia
Hello, Phoenix7777! I am ja:User:Kanjy, one of the Bureaucrats of Japanese Wikipedia. At Japanese Wikipedia, I saw a request for renaming User:Phoenix7777J to User:Phoenix7777. Is it from you? Excuse me if wrong. --Kanjy (talk) 11:57, 3 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Done. Thanks for your cooperation.  --Kanjy (talk) 16:18, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Your edit to Daikon
You have never edited the article, but you appeared to edit the article right after I edited it. Anyway, the article is not about Japanese thing, but about a subspecies eaten in East and central Asia. For your information, any term that become English is treated with the same way. The term becomes an English word, not Japanese in "English speaking world". So there is no need to insert Japanese spelling in the intro. Please follow existent guidance for such plant articles. Regards.--Caspian blue 01:20, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Instead of initiating a discussion, you have chosen edit warring, so that is regretful. And you have not clarified your suspicious appearance tracking of my edit. Since you have been insisting on your own POV, I've invited native English speakers who have been familiar with East Asian subjects and plants for the matter. Regards.--Caspian blue 01:51, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

What is your purpose for intentionally engaging WP:Edit war and violating WP:Point with the WP:Blanking? Your deliberate blanking of properly cited IPA info and references on entries that have Red bean paste are nothing but disruptive. You also have followed my footstep to edit to revert. You've also deleted only Korean-related entries from articles with reason of "uncited info" among the butch of uncited information. That does not add up to explain your repeated insertion of uncited information and blanking of cited info over and over. Since you're a newbie, I think you need to read the warnings and follow the instruction. Regards.--Caspian blue 10:41, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Request for explanations on your selective blanking from Tofu
Your explanations for you blanking of properly cited information (again) would be highly appreciated at Talk:Tofu. I also left a note to the original editor, who cited the info with the Japanese book (ISBN 978-4104719013) as a courtesy. Thanks.--Caspian blue 05:33, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

3RR waring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. --Caspian blue 23:58, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Daikanyama
I see you removed the paragraph about the embassies. But, aren't you mixing up Daikanyama-cho (the administrative name) and Daikanyama (the area name)? Sarugagucho is in Daikanyama, so the embassies are in Daikanyama. Here is a map:. Best regards,--Mycomp (talk) 06:35, 16 October 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't think the article Daikanyama is about "the area name" but "the administrative name". The lead says "Daikanyamachō" and postal code is 150-0034 which indicates Daikanyamachō.. And the "Daikanyama 代官山" in your map is not "the area name" but a station name. Please see next station "Nakameguro 中目黒" or zoom in appropriately.  I don't know what "the area name" Daikanyama means. Could you provide any information about "the area name" Daikanyama? I think it is probably a very vague name that no one can define explicitly. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 10:00, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * You are right about the writing "Daikanyama" (it was the Toyoko line station). Mea culpa. But look at this: it is 代官山エリアガイド (Daikanyama area guide): The Danish Embassy is listed as one of the embassies in Daikanyama. But, it's ok, if you think the embassies should not be mentioned in the Daikanyama article we can keep them out of it. I go to Daikanyama regularly, and "everybody" calls the area where the embassies are Daikanyama (yes, I know that is not an acceptable reference for Wiki :). Have a nice day.--Mycomp (talk) 11:41, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Timely contributions
Thank you for your thoughtful contributions to the thread at Talk:Order of Culture. In this context, perhaps it will be perceived as welcoming to point out the gilded figure atop the canopy structure used in Imperial enthronement ceremonies? Perhaps this 1917 image of a phoenix is new to you?--Tenmei (talk) 23:30, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Phoenix! Actually, those coordinates are for Shinjuku, the capital of the prefecture, Tokyo, which is different from the Greater Tokyo Area. &mdash;  Paine's   Climax   03:35, 18 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Oops! you are right, Phoenix, I double checked and the correct coordinates for Shijuku are 35.70056°N, 139.715°W. I was a degree off on the latitude.  My bad.  The latd has been corrected.
 * &mdash;  Paine's   Climax   04:00, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Reverts
Took me lots of time collecting infos. Please discuss before reverting a whole set. All teas are from what I find and what I've bought in stores. aracha sencha japanese might be 煎茶の荒茶 rather than 荒茶煎茶 aracha gyokuro

Koicha / Usucha 抹茶

konacha

Then you can't reasonably place genmatcha as a type of tea, as this isn't a tea but a mix. Same thoughts with aracha (raw), and houjicha (roasted sencha with can also be bancha).

Might need some more cleanup on this article, as most the the tea names are just different processings of gyokuro, sencha, bancha... Might need to sub-categorize.

The banned user
Look, please read WP:BAN. Banned user's contribution is usually wholly blanked out, struck or deleted per the rule regardless of whether their contribution is good or not. However, the "discussion" was whole harassment campaign by against me. Moreover, the thread titles were named by "me", and I let the harassment campaign stay instead of blanking. Archived discussions' titles were fixed by editors in some occasions. In addition, you're no right to falsely accuse me of doing vandalism for that. That is a personal attack. Even if the banned user appears to claim his authorship, the sockpuppeter has no right whatsoever edit Wikipedia because at the time the "discussions" occurred while the troll was already banned by persistently block-evading. There is no honor for you to defend the banned user's dignity. --Caspian blue 14:26, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Daifuku
Hi. I restored the text you deleted, and added a fact tag. Unless the tag is there, readers and contributors are unlikely to know a reliable source is needed, and for the tag to be there the text has to be there too. --Una Smith (talk) 02:45, 9 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Una, thank you for informing me of your revert. However if it is left with, no one will never add a reference as with many other {{cn}. So I will bring it to the talk page, however probably no one will respond to my post either because no one can prove the description is true. Even if it is proved to be true, I am sure it is too rare case to describe it as a variation of daifuku.


 * I am concerned so many false descriptions are left with/without . Actually I removed dubious descriptions in Shumai recently. In this case, I am not so confident as Daifuku, I brought it to talk page and  Phillipine project.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 21:06, 9 January 2010 (UTC)


 * If you delete the text, even fewer readers will even know a source is needed. So put the tag on, or better yet find a source.  --Una Smith (talk) 05:05, 11 January 2010 (UTC)


 * What is the rationale you removed tag without adding a reference? ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 05:47, 11 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Already given on Talk:Daifuku. If it is not clear, please say so there.  --Una Smith (talk) 06:02, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

KFC claim in Christianity in Japan
It occured to me I didn't know if you were watching Aphaia's talk page or not; anyway, I have replied there: User talk:Aphaia. Perhaps we should be having this conversation in Talk:Christianity in Japan? -- Joren (talk) 06:02, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
 * After getting the support from Reliable sources/Noticeboard please do so. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 06:28, 7 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi Phoenix, thank you for your reply. I don't believe RSN is intended to be a place where all sources must be vetted before being used; if you read the noticeboard, you will find that RSN is more of a place to go if you have doubts about a source that has already been used in an article and want it checked out.  However, I appreciate the intent.  WP:V and WP:RS are better places to direct people if you want to convey what Wikipedia considers to be a reliable source.
 * I've been Googling and what I've found (filtering out blogs of course) are rather unsatisfactorily mostly news articles with bits of journal and encyclopedia sprinkled in here and there.
 * Voice of America - Japan and Fried Chicken: A New Christmas Tradition? - Seems to give a good overview but would prefer something other than VOA.
 * Reuters - It's Christmas! Have a little more bat meat! - This one is usable perhaps.... At least they had reporters in Tokyo.
 * Reuters - In Japan, $850 Christmas chicken defies recession - This one references the tradition, but only does so as a side note.
 * KFC Christmas (BBC, et al) - Kind of short, not terribly thorough; seems to rely mostly on KFC's own version of events
 * On my next library visit I'll search their journal database and see what they have. Who knows, might discover something on my bookshelf too :O  -- Joren (talk) 07:03, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I apologize if I offended you by reverting your edit. Yes, you may be able to find a reliable source supporting KFC, however you may also be able to find a reliable source supporting McDonald's sells special chicken menus during the Christmas season. What is clear is that chicken is very popular in Japan during the Christmas season regardless of fried chicken, roast chicken, chicken burger or chicken nugget. So if you mention only KFC, it is against NPOV. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 09:40, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, no. I didn't state I was looking for a kind of source that talks about it being on sale.  I'd be looking for a secondary source that authoritatively states that it is a tradition.  But anyway... no offense taken, just, we seem to be miscommunicating.  You seem to believe that "what is clear" to you is clear to me as well.  It is not.
 * You might want to keep this in mind before saying things are POV or NPOV; after all, unless you cite evidence to back up "what is clear", it just seems like someone's POV and you make as little sense to me as I made to you :P From what was "clear to me", there was a KFC tradition, anecdotal, news media, and article evidence seemed to confirm it, so I was not aware of any bias, and your calling it POV wouldn't have made much sense to me if I hadn't read Aphaia's reply before reading yours.  However, Aphaia has actually explained her understanding in a way that makes sense, so I'm willing to go with that.  In the future, instead of just asserting "what is clear", you might want to explain and back it up, as Aphaia has done, and we can avoid further miscommunication.  Thank you,
 * -- Joren (talk) 10:08, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Ady Gil article, Peter Bethune's detention and arrest
Hello, You removed the referenced video showing Peter Bethune delivering his bill to the captain of the Shonan Maru 2. This video is important because another editor inserted the word "ostensibly" into the Ady Gil article, regarding the purpose of Bethune's visit to the Captain of the Shonan Maru 2. But the supporting news story which is referenced states that as a fact, and the video of Bethune knocking on the door of the bridge of the Shonan Maru 2 with a piece of paper in his hand also supports this. He was not attempting to sabotage or blow up the ship, for example. I'm going to revert your recent change based on this information. Ghostofnemo (talk) 13:26, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, this is not a self-published source. Bethune did not take a video of himself on another ship or post it. It is evidence that he was there to contact the ship's captain. Ghostofnemo (talk) 13:41, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

tenno title
1; there is no word in japanese for the latin word Imperator, or emperor in english or emperador in spanish, 2;the meaning of the title which belongs to Japanese monarch, shown in this publication is incorrect, there is no literal translation of the word emperor of origin in the Latin language,to the Japanese language,

3; As I explain here, is obvious and need no sources this 天 means, heaven or heavenly or celestial, and this 皇 NOT means "Emperor" or "king", this 王 means "king"...., this 皇 means some type of "sovereign" rather than king {王}, 天子 this means son of heaven, from 天 {Heaven} and 子 son or prince, that is why 天皇 {tennō} means "heavenly sovereign" Thats is why.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.129.106.213 (talk) 02:16, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Kofun Haniwa soldier
What can I say? I do agree with you Phoenix7777 about the caption being too detailed for a picture. Yet I still think the caption is far too laconic as it is. If you pay attention to my edits you will find out that I had actually started trimming down and redistributing the information to the more suitable Chokutō page. The Haniwa soldier holds a Chokutō indeed, additionally showing a slight though obvious inward curvature.

I have been researching this particular ancient sword and its roughly 5 different pommel based sub-varieties. I have personally visited the largest collections of Kofun Period material including Kofun period swords, and engaged in discussions with resident experts and archaeologist versed in this topic. One particularly important reference is one publication by the Chikatsu Atsuka Museum (Osaka prefecture) which documented the most ample collection of Kofun period swords from various museums across Japan. I will soon enough provide this reference, amongst other equally valuable references published by the Tenri University Museum which I also visited. I have pictures, which they allowed me to take, of two exquisitely well preserved Chokutō (one Kantou-tachi and one Kentou-tachi), which I would like to add to the Wikipedia Chokutō page, though I have never done it, tried once but failed for some reason. Can you help me do it?--Luxgratia (talk) 17:04, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Ken Hirai
Hello. In February you added a citation to a book from the "Webster's Quotations, Facts and Phrases" series published by Icon Group International to this article. Unfortunately, Icon Group International is not a reliable source - their books are computer-generated, with most of the text copied from Wikipedia (most entries have [WP] by them to indicate this, see e.g. ). I've only removed the reference, not the text it was referencing. I'm removing a lot of similar references as they are circular references; many other editors have also been duped by these sources. Despite giving an appearance of reliability, the name "Webster's" has been public domain since the late 19th century. Another publisher to be wary of as they reuse Wikipedia articles is Alphascript Publishing. Fences &amp;  Windows  17:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Tributaries of Imperial China
As you can see, I supplemented and slightly modified the inline citation at List of tributaries of Imperial China which was restored by JamesBWatson here.

The actual copy of the book you used must have Pratt listed as first author; but OCLC lists Hoare as first author. I used the version which was online verifiable. Under the circumstances, I wondered if there might be a need for me to explain this?

I do not have a copy of this book, but I was able to verify the accuracy of the citation using Google in a non-obvious way:
 * re: Goryo (173 tribute missions)
 * using "173 tribute missions" as search topic in Google books yields several "hits", including this one &mdash; http://www.google.com/search?tbs=bks%3A1&tbo=1&q=173+tribute+missions&btnG=Search+Books


 * re: Baekje (45 tribute missions)

I hope this mitigates a "problem" which was never really a problem. --Tenmei (talk) 12:53, 11 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, Tenmei. I am not sure the intent of your edit. I rearranged the refs.


 * 1) Why did you discard my template of "Korea: a historical and cultural dictionary"?
 * 2) Why did you remove the Google book link to "Korea: a historical and cultural dictionary"?
 * 3) "Why did you change the author's name from "Pratt, Keith L.; Rutt, Richard; Hoare, James (1999)" to "Hoare, James ''et al."?
 * 4) Why did you concatenate the refs like "Hoare, p. 482; Korea Herald. (2004) Korea now, p. 31; excerpt, "The Chinese also insist that even though Goguryeo was part of Chinese domain, Silla and Baekje were states subjected to China's tributary system.""? I think this is not a standard practice.
 * ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 23:07, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm going to assume that your question was rhetorical. There is nothing wrong with your edit, nor is there anything wrong with your citation format.  Any point I may have been trying to make is not very important.  --Tenmei (talk) 02:39, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Whale meat
Hello folks, as expected, the POV tag on whale meat is preventing it from hitting the front page as DYK. I would really like it to make it. As you know, DYKs get thousands of hits. A whale meat DYK might get 5 thousand or more.

This would be very good for the article, as editors would improve it, and neutrality issues would certainly be resolved. Also, if you feel strongly about whale meat consumption, this is a good way for it to get exposure.

So, please, could we remove the tag? Or, if there are issues, could we remove the contentious text for the time being. After DYK, other editors will restore it or leave it out, based on consensus. I hope this seems fair. Time is short, so please act quickly.

I also sent this message to User talk:Malick78. Thank you. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:36, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

 * I think it is now too late for the article to get DYK exposure. Now there will probably be a POV tag and extended dispute over content. A real shame.

Void
I understood you well enough, but I questioned one word in the following context:

In my opinion, "void" is provocative without suggesting a way out of the dispute which may ensue. Another way to say the same thing might be:

 * Summarizing the so-called discussion which began at Talk:Eulsa Treaty in early August here:
 * A. In an attempt to help us start discussion, options were proposed here and refined here.
 * Leave it at its current name?
 * To Japan-Korea Protectorate Treaty?
 * To Japan-Korea Treaty of 1905?
 * To 1905 Protectorate Treaty?
 * Or what?; see the second paragraph of page Eulsa Treaty.
 * B. Valentim presented the results of a Lexis/Nexis search here. This supplements several Google searches.
 * In the many weeks of so-called discussion thread development, those opposing the move have either been unwilling or unable to present refutation or counterargument; and therefore, I propose we delay no longer. In other words, I suggest that there is a consensus to act now on the basis of the Lexis-Nexis search outcome. The time has come for this article to be renamed Japan-Korea Treaty of 1905. --Tenmei (talk) 19:43, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Move edit warring on Senkaku Islands
Please do not engage in move edit warring on Senkaku Islands.

If you were a neutral admin, you should have revert the move to the long standing stable name and suggested the new comer to review the past discussion and to read Naming convention.

Phoenix7777, your move of neutral Pinnacle Islands to Japanese Senkaku Islands seems to be based on a flawed google search with a careful choice of keywords. Correct me if i'm wrong. Anyway, Wikipedia is not a place for nationalists to claim sovereignty and it's hardly productive to stir up a move warring between the use of "senkaku" or "diaoyu" as we can see in Liancourt Rocks and Sea of Japan which become an unproductive gala for Korean and Japanese nationalists but left nothing to the community. --Winstonlighter (talk) 05:19, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism
I'm not sure how long you've been working on Wikipedia, so please don't feel like I'm being patronizing, but I do think you want to re-read WP:VANDAL. The edits you marked as Vandalism (the one's you're talking about over on User Talk:Magog the Ogre, weren't vandalism--they were content disagreements. By definition, vandalism primarily involves things that the editor thinks will make Wikipedia worse.  While you or I may not agree with Winstonlighter and other's edits, they certainly aren't making them with the intent of harming the encyclopedia, or defacing it, or spamming it.  Even if they added things Senkaku Islands with "These islands obviously belong to China, anyone can see that, because Chinese are just superior," that wouldn't even be vandalism (although might possibly rise to that level if they removed major chunks of sourced info).  It would be an extreme POV, it would violate WP:NPOV and WP:OR and WP:V, but it still probably wouldn't be vandalism.  In other words, you reverting them was okay (as long as you weren't going so far as to edit war), but you probably shouldn't label their edits vandalism. You may want to consider retracting your claims of vandalism, and just saying that you weren't aware of the exact definition. Note that I say this even though I think their edits and plans for the article are quite often wrong, but I still think that what they're doing isn't vandalism. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:38, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you for enlighten me with your explanation above. Actually I haven't read the policy before. Although I rarely used "identified as vandalism" in my edit summary except for an unexplained removal of a citation or a cited material which I believed as a vandalism, I will follow the policy from now on. Thanks again for your input. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 05:51, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Senkaku Islands dispute. Thank you. —Magog the Ogre (talk) 22:48, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Tolstoy
In part, this is a follow-up to the problems you are helping to resolve at Senkaku Islands and Senkaku Islands dispute. I wonder if you have previously stumbled across this quote?
 * The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him. -- Leo Tolstoy, 1994

For me, this concept has resonance in a variety of Wikipedia settings. These sentences were introduced to me by someone interested in Metonymy and WP:Polling is not a substitute for discussion ≠ WP:Straw poll. Although I still haven't resolved what I think about the context, I do come back again and again to Tolstoy's words. Perhaps these words might be usefully stored in the back of your mind? --Tenmei (talk) 15:17, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

RfC Senkaku Islands
The RfC provides an opportunity for additional comment by other interested editors. Can you frame a constructive response to Bobthefish2 pivotal question: Even if the policy does not recommend the use of Senkaku/Diaoyu-style dual names, is our situation exceptional enough to make it a good solution? In this RfC context, please consider an overview here? --Tenmei (talk) 06:52, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Locked article
I'm very sorry that Senkaku Islands dispute was locked -- not because of a short-term problem with the current version of the article, but because of the unintended consequences. Even if this action does succeed in mitigating some kind of short-term dispute, I anticipate longer-term problems as a result of Nihonjoe's decision. I tried to explain at User talk:Nihonjoe#Locking of Senkaku Islands dispute; but the effort was not well received:
 * diff . . User talk:Nihonjoe‎; 04:07 . . (-33,990) . . Nihonjoe (talk | contribs) (Reverted to revision 411729997 by Nihonjoe; rv edit war spllover from Senkaku Islands, please keep your discussion on THAT talk page, not here.)

IMO, this is a problem which didn't need to be a problem. I do not know how to be a force for good in this context, but I will think about it over the next few days. --Tenmei (talk) 08:46, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Your opinions
This is not a site for your opinions. Your bias is impeding the proper reporting of history. Just because you believe something is fictional doesn't make it so. If you find facts contrary to what has been said, please site your sources. Your own stubbornness should not influence this site. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Popeyeatucb (talk • contribs) 18:36, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with this assessment - the templated warning was entirely inappropriate. I've already asked you to assume good faith and to stop referring to other editor's changes as vandalism. You had no idea if this editor was doing so on purpose or not; in this case, he was not. So let me state this point blank: if you continue to bite our newcomers and other editors with false accusations of vandalism, I will block you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 21:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * If I may chime in as a talk page lurker, I believe that the problem was the use of the vandalism template. The new user's edit was incorrect, because it asserted something to be certainly true when it is merely the opinion of a single historian (at least, according to the reference given).   As such, I went and changed the article statement to read properly.  However, Popeyeatucb's edits don't qualify as vandalism, because they were done with good intentions.  Vandalism, by Wikipedia's definition, is always something done to harm the encyclopedia.  While Popeyeatucb violated WP:NPOV (by asserting an opinion as a verified fact), I suspect that's more a problem of not understanding how we work here (i.e., how to properly attribute opinions).  You could have gone ahead and reverted, just not called it vandalism, and instead made a more clear comment to Popeyeatucb (which I'm going to do now, actually).Qwyrxian (talk) 23:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry I made a mistake again. I used a wrong template. What I originally intended to use was an unsourced template instead. I corrected the user's talk page. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 23:14, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh OK well then thank you. It sounds like an error on your part, so no need to get worked up; apologies if I was forceful, but I was under the opinion that you were doing so carelessly. Magog the Ogre (talk) 00:07, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Attributing the Remin Ribao statement on Senkaku Islands dispute
Currently, 4 editors have been able to come to a compromise wording on the sentence in Senkaku Islands dispute about the Remin Ribao article. We've agreed (Tenmei still disagrees) that we should change the sentence to say "The Japanese government and U.S. researchers have claimed that a 1953 article in The People's Daily, a daily newspaper which is the organ of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), stated that the Senkaku Islands were a part of the Rykuyu Islands, and that this further implied that the Senkaku Islands were a part of Japanese territory." I believe that you have objected to this wording in the past, on the grounds that since this is already the Japanese section, it's obvious that this is a one-sided claim. However, I think that since this is obviously a highly contentious article, and the subtlety here is that this is an interpretation of a translation, it is beneficial for readers to understand clearly that this not "literally" what the original article says, but specifically an interpretation. In other words, it does no harm to clearly attribute this opinion, but that not attributing it may be confusing. I'm hoping that since this opinion was arrived at in part through the comments by two previously uninvolved editors (Nlu and Ohconfucius), you might be persuaded to see that this version will make the article better. If you do agree, I think we can show a very solid consensus to make an edit request and have that line changed. I sincerely appreciate you providing your input on this; it would feel really great to know that we were actually able to move forward through a consensus decision. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:48, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Your unanswered questions
You mention an important concept when you use the word "refutation" here. In one important paragraph, you make two related points:
 * ¶-Part A . The attribution doesn't help improve NPOV in this case because trying to make the Japanese POV claim to NPOV is nonsense. What we should do is to represent the sources accurately not to represent the editor's "POV"/"NPOV" interpretation.

Your point is simple, transparent, obvious to me; however, it seems to be ignored. I don't know why.
 * ¶-Part B . In this case, NPOV can be easily attained by adding the refutation from China to "Arguments from PRC and ROC" section as is done in Chinese article. I cannot understand why pro-Chinese editors won't add the refutation ....

I am persuaded that Qwyrxian does not recognize the importance of this underlined sentence; and I do not know how to re-direct attention to the pivotal point you make. In other words, Qwyrxian and others ignore it; however, you put your finger on the central problem with this so-called "compromise" sentence. We need to figure out why your words are not understood to be significant. --Tenmei (talk) 21:05, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, I was going to answer here, but I realized I should do it on the article's talk page...but the short version is that the sentence as written now is wrong--it states a falsehood, something which is not true. Phoenix's points about me misattributing are good, but the sentence just has to change somehow.Qwyrxian (talk) 00:00, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Qwyrxian repeats a characteristic mistake. Instead of investigating a specific question with research (WP:V + WP:RS), the focus of attention shifts to something else.   This is a kind of con game or confidence trick in which misdirection is a key factor; but in this scam, Qwyrxian is a victim. Qwyrxian is a person who has been deceived.  This is not a personal attack.  Rather it is a simple restatement.  It is an accurate assessment of a what has been going on in this thread since Qwyrxian began to participate and things have gone horribly wrong. In the diff above, Qwyrxian functions as a shill for the Bobthefish2 game of Cups and balls which has been evolving slowly for months. The so-called "compromise" Qwyrxian sentence is not valid.  It is incorrect.  It is unsupported by WP:V + WP:RS.  It is only a factoid.  This word is defined by the Compact Oxford English Dictionary as "an item of unreliable information that is repeated so often that it becomes accepted as fact". Qwyrxian has read Bobthefish2's use of the word "fraudulent" so many times that factoid and fact are indistinguishable.  --Tenmei (talk) 18:41, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Phoenix7777 -- Your question is the key. Your question is implied: "I cannot understand why pro-Chinese editors won't add the refutation." The word "refutation" is key to why Qwyrxian's sentence is unworkable, not because I say so, but because the premises of the sentence are not supported by WP:V + WP:RS. There is no refutation added because there is nothing to refute. This is only smoke and mirrors; and Qwyrxian has been seduced by the fraud. In the context of the above, please review the following from the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. There is no evidence to support a belief that Qwyrxian has looked at anything outside the ambit of the talk page threads; and this means that not even the the MOFA website has been examined superficially In other words, if Qwyrxian looks at the following, it will be for the first time here on your talk page.

Question 1 尖閣諸島についての日本政府の基本的な立場はどのようなものですか.


 * What is the basic view of the Government of Japan on the Senkaku Islands?
 * What is the basic view of the Government of Japan on the Senkaku Islands?

Question 2 尖閣諸島に対する日本政府の領有権の根拠は何ですか.


 * What are the grounds for Japan's territorial sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands?
 * What are the grounds for Japan's territorial sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands?

Question 3 日本は尖閣諸島を有効に支配しているとのことですが，具体例を教えてください.


 * What are the concrete examples of Japan's valid control over the Senkaku Islands?
 * What are the concrete examples of Japan's valid control over the Senkaku Islands?

Question 4 中国（・台湾）による尖閣諸島の領有権に関する主張に対して，日本政府はどのような見解を有していますか.


 * What is the view of the Government of Japan on China's (and Taiwan's) assertions on territorial sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands?
 * What is the view of the Government of Japan on China's (and Taiwan's) assertions on territorial sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands?


 * 日本の領土たる尖閣諸島の領有権について，中国政府及び台湾当局が独自の主張を始めたのは，1970年代以降（参考）です.


 * It is only since the 1970s that the Government of China and the Taiwanese Authorities began making their own assertions on territorial sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands, which constitute Japan's inherent territory ( See reference ).

Responding to Question 4: Some examples which contradict the PRC's post-1970s allegations include:

なお，1920年5月に，当時の中華民国駐長崎領事から福建省の漁民が尖閣諸島に遭難した件について発出された感謝状においては，「日本帝国沖縄県八重山郡尖閣列島」との記載が見られます. また，1953年1月8日人民日報記事「琉球諸島における人々の米国占領反対の戦い」においては，琉球諸島は尖閣諸島を含む7組の島嶼からなる旨の記載があるほか，例えば1933年に中国で発行された「中華民国新地図」や1960年に中国で発行された「世界地図集」では，尖閣諸島が日本に属するものとして扱われています.


 * There is a description of "the Senkaku Islands, Yaeyama District, Okinawa Prefecture, Empire of Japan" in the letter of appreciation dated May 1920 sent from the then consul of the Republic of China in Nagasaki concerning the distress which involved Chinese fishermen from Fujian Province around the Senkaku Islands.
 * In addition, an article in the People's Daily dated 8 January 1953, under the title of "Battle of people in the Ryukyu Islands against the U.S. occupation", made clear that the Ryukyu Islands consist of 7 groups of islands including the Senkaku Islands
 * ..."The Republic of China New Atlas" published in China in 1933 treated the Senkaku Islands as part of Japan
 * ..."World Atlas" published in China in 1960 treated the Senkaku Islands as part of Japan


 * In other words, the People's Daily article (8 Jan 1953) is identified as  refutation -- as one among several illustrative examples which show that the PRC's words in the pre-1970s were different than its post-1970s position on the sovereignty of the Senkaku Islands.


 * 諸島は，我が国（注：中国. 以下同様. ）の台湾東北部及び日本の九州南西部の間の海上に散在しており，尖閣諸島，先島諸島，大東諸島，沖縄諸島，大島諸島，トカラ諸島，大隈諸島の7組の島嶼からなる.


 * "The Ryukyu Islands lie scattered on the sea between the Northeast of Taiwan of our State (note: China; same in the following text) and the Southwest of Kyushu, Japan. They consist of 7 groups of islands; the Senkaku Islands, the Sakishima Islands, the Daito Islands, the Okinawa Islands, the Oshima Islands, the Tokara Islands and the Osumi Islands. "

Summary conclusion. The often repeated lie that the translation of the first sentence of the article was "fraudulent" is a fantasy -- it is now shown that this lie is part of a bigger fraud. It is a scam.

It is demonstrated that this fraud was constructed by Bobthefish2 and not supported by WP:V + WP:RS. Nevertheless, Qwyrxian continues to be unable to distinguish fantasy from reality, factoid from fact, verified from unverified, etc.

The so-called "compromise" sentence is fatally flawed.

Do you understand what I have written. If not, please ask questions. Let me try to explain again in different words.

Can you suggest any part of this which could have been left out? Can you point to any sentences which would have been deleted? Can you help me see how this could have been shorter?

This is not simple. --Tenmei (talk) 18:41, 16 February 2011 (UTC)


 * You are kindly requested to stop guessing my motives and/or reasoning; none of this is relevant. However, I must sincerely thank you for your listing of the info above; while I had read the MOFA cite before I hadn't realized how badly we had misinterpreted it. I'll bring this to the article page. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:41, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, the interpretation of the MOTA site is not that important to this stage of the discussion. While the attribution part of your proposed compromise is not necessarily 100% accurate, I believe we've also explicitly made it known that whatever you proposed is just a basic idea or a draft. If we want to make the attribution 100% appropriate (which we probably do), then it's only a simple matter of opening up another small discussion on how to make it right. But for now, I think we are at the stage of debating whether or not there should be any attribution at all (which, according to the discussions in the talk page, seems quite necessary for WP:NPOV).


 * By the way, railing against the imperfections of a draft does not help the overall editorial process especially if no constructive input is given. Bobthefish2 (talk) 03:29, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Japanese people in China
I've reverted your edit in good faith: it doesn't make sense to compare a 2010 figure from one source and associate it with a separate variable elsewhere from 2009. It would be similar to comparing 2007 Toyota car sales in Manhattan, New York, as reported by the Washington Post, with 2006 Toyota car sales in New York, as reported by the Chicago Post. Such a comparison would also be WP:OR in itself.

As for the discrepancy in figures, I've replied to your post on my talk page; I've thought of a few possible situations, but nothing can absolutely explain the mismatch with absolute certainty. --  李博杰   | —Talk contribs email 12:43, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem. I just wanted to clarify the difference between 127,282 and 66,159 is not presumed to be a figure for Hong Kong and Macau. How about adding "(including 21,518 in Hong Kong and Macau)" immediately after "127,282"? Then we can easily tell there is a considerable discrepancy between the two census. The figure 21,518 in 香港総領事館(p.36) includes the figure in both Hong Kong and Macau.(p.64) ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 23:42, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, that seems fine. Though, doesn't Japanese people in Hong Kong already mention the figure quite clearly? --  李博杰   | —Talk contribs email 04:43, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, you are right. However as I explained above, I myself misunderstood the figure for Hong Kong. I will also add "nearly a half of the Japanese statistics." to the last sentence in order to indicate the discrepancy between the two stats. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 09:12, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

I understand your desire to delete the association of horse meat with Dog meat
The meats I have listed are viewed in similar/logical consequence here in American culture, and in readership of English Wikipedia, namely American people(and closest international constituents) typically find consumption of the following meats: cat, dog, horse among various others as unusual or even immoral. I understand your need to maintain a certain level of white pride and Asian cultural-secessionism: disassociating certain European and close western-ally Asian taboo meat culture/nations with others and make an outright disconnect in these taboo meat articles relative to dog meat, which have their largest proportion of consumers in such places as China, Korea and Vietnam: whereas cat and horse meat the partiality toward the eastern/central Asians and that of non-Asians is far less. But this is nothing to do with proper presentation of white people's eating habits, or the eating habits of American's closest ally nations should be seen. The inclusion of horse meat in the See Also section constitutes a consistent American reader-observation of relevant facts and comparative study to the culture of eating these animals to which American and other "democratized" people should objectively examine, and not feel humiliated, like how the editors and Dog meat article-controllers here are doing here by omitting direct reader-access to these relevant articles for comparative examination. Of course, as difficult as it may be for some of you to accept, the link to horse meat and other relevant "taboo meats" will be included in the See Also section. 99.130.8.150 (talk) 03:04, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Ridiculous -- yes
At Talk:Senkaku Islands dispute#"Simply being of the opinion", I repeat the words of John Smith's as if they were my own: It's ridiculous to keep proposing name changes until people come up with the "right" answer.

Please self revert on Senkaku Islands dispute
The tag was placed in good faith. There is a clear dispute here, based in policy. I believe that, once we work our way through mediation, it will become abundantly clear that policy supports the current name. But there is a dispute, and those disputants are not just asserting an opinion--they are legitimately interpreting data and policy differently than you and I. Please, there is no harm in the tag being there while mediation is under way (presumably it will start once the Mediator comes back to editing). Qwyrxian (talk) 10:31, 22 May 2011 (UTC)


 * In order to answer your post on the talk page, I would have to make their argument for them. I would prefer not to do so. But they do have a policy based argument--several, in fact.  In that very section, STSC advances a policy-based argument.  Previous discussions also were based on policy, based on how exactly we interpret the search results. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:04, 22 May 2011 (UTC)


 * This is smoke and mirrors. The so-called arguments which Qwyrxian proposes are best compared to hot air balloons which are untethered to the ground.  Despite all the time and words invested in "hot air" arguments, no fact-based data which are inconsistent with Senkaku Islands and Senkaku Islands dispute have been shown.  In other words, the current name is supported by verifiable sources; and the complaints are unsupported by anything except the intensity of preference of those who argue for anything and everything except "Senkaku Islands". --Tenmei (talk) 18:24, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Getting the most out of mediation
Hi Phoenix7777. I've noticed that your edits to Wikipedia talk:Requests for mediation/Senkaku Islands have been quite aggressive of late and that you've taken quite a combative stance with the mediator. That's your choice, but I'm not sure it's going to allow you to get the most out of the process. As a mediator, Feezo will be looking to find compromises acceptable to all parties - that's going to mean everyone being at least a little unhappy with the option, but maybe willing to give it a go to try and solve the dispute. Sometime it may also mean bending the rules a little - Wikipedia is meant to be a pretty flexible place and guidelines can be tailored to individual articles where individual consensus requires it. Feezo's task here is to try and find a consensus among editors who haven't been able to reach one by themselves. If everyone doesn't give way a bit, then there's no real chance of solving the dispute.

I suggest you engage with Feezo - and the other participants in the mediation - a little more calmly and consider whether you are willing to compromise at all. If the only solution you're willing to accept is 100% the one you want, I'm not sure why you agreed to mediation in the first place.

I really believe you'll get a lot more out of the process if you engage with it less aggressively. Don't edit war with the mediator - if you want to be part of the process, you need to work with them - not against them. All the best, WJBscribe (talk) 13:16, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Management by objectives?
 * Perhaps it would have been better if two sentences were underscored at User talk:Feezo:
 * For the time being, all side issues are considered to be off topic. Once we resolve the core issue, we may proceed to deal with them.
 * I construe "for the time being" to suggest that we may not need to understand or accept or refuse anything. I may be wrong; and I am uncertain about the rationale which informs Feezo's mediation plan. I do grasp that waiting -- simply waiting -- is what seems to matter most for today and for the near future. --Tenmei (talk) 02:33, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

(S vs D vs D vs T vs T) vs (S vs (D or D or T or T))
I know that my answer to your question in the JSTO section is probably still a little confusing; that's mainly because it depends (I think) on the input we get from WT:NCGN. When I was typing out my answer to you, I realized that it sounds unfair to put Senkaku up against 4 other names combined; but transliteration makes this a weird issue. I think you actually have more experience with this issue than I do (I think I've seen your name come up in some of the interminable discussions about Japanese transliteration at Wikiproject Japan and other places). My intuition tells me that we should be able to compare them all separately, but I can't develop a logical proposition to support that point. Note, too, that no matter what gets decided on this one tiny point, there's so many other points (the questionable reliability of search results, the debate about where our cut-off for "recent" usage is, the encyclopedia and almanac data, etc.) all add up to a huge knot that is, understandably, difficult and/or impossible to unravel. I so wish we could just say "Look, whose military ships patrol the coastal waters of the islands"? Qwyrxian (talk) 05:38, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The four Chinese names are transliteration of two different native name 钓鱼 (Diaoyu or Tiaoyu) and 釣魚台 (Diaoyutai or Tiaoyutai). Then if we even accept different transliteration be collectively dealt with, we should compare three different names "Senkaku", "Diaoyu or Tiaoyu" and "Diaoyutai or Tiaoyutai". " "Diaoyu State Guesthouse" doesn't make sense. Please compare with "Diaoyutai State Guesthouse" 钓鱼 and 釣魚台 are quite popular name in China and there are many other places in China. See BGN and click "search" then enter "Diaoyu" (without quote). I am afraid you are too much emphasis on JSTOR. It is one of the many supplementary tests. Moreover its hit count are very limited. We should not determine a widely accepted name only by such a limited search. Basically the guideline recommend Google Book, and HathiTrust is another large database with 8.8million of repository. We should determine the widely accepted English name by overall evidences. I don't understand your recent comment "they are nearly equal". ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 08:47, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I said nearly equal only in JSTOR. JSTOR is just one part of the discussion, one part of the puzzle. Specifically, JSTOR looks at a certain type of academic source, which is useful, but not definitive.  I just wanted to do a complete search on it so that we could be certain what the JSTOR data says.  In fact, none of the searches we can do are definitive.  However, if you are saying that some of the false hits we are getting, in general, from Diaoyu are not referring to the islands, then that is a definite problem.   However, places like that almost certainly won't show up in JSTOR--I sincerely doubt an academic is writing about the Diaoyu State Guesthouse.  Also, a scan of the titles/abstracts indicates that those articles are likely about the islands.  But, again, I'm not saying this means that the names are equal--I'm only saying that the names are approximately equal in JSTOR.  Qwyrxian (talk) 10:11, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The search results from Google Books, WorldCat, and JSTOR can be easily manually verified. I've looked through them in the past and I have never seen any book talking about a Diaoyu Zhen. Diaoyutai State Guesthouse was also explicitly accounted for. --Bobthefish2 (talk) 10:21, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Statistical analysis
Please give some thought to my edit here.

FACT: These are the identified participants in this thread, with the total number of edits and the percentage of edits which are in articles.
 * Phead128 -- 260 edits ... 27.03%.
 * Lvhis -- 329 edits ... 41.85%
 * This is a single-purpose account since Feb 2011
 * Compare, e.g., diff 04:28, 22 February 2011 Talk:Senkaku Islands ‎ (→The title of this article sounds quite POV: new section)


 * STSC -- 548 edits ... 23.72%
 * This is not a single-purpose account since Sept 2010
 * Compare, e.g., diff 02:17, 24 September 2010 Talk:Senkaku Islands ‎ (→This article is now completely hijacked by the pro-Japanese contributors: new section)


 * Bobthefish2 -- 1,381 edits ... 5.37% --> Not here to build an encyclopedia
 * This is a single-purpose account since Oct 2010
 * Compare, e.g., diff 21:38, 4 October 2010 Senkaku Islands ‎ (I find the neutrality of this page to be in dispute)

I have sorted this list in ascending order based on total edits, but the percentages are also revealing.
 * Phoenix7777 -- 2,888 edits ... 60.06%
 * John Smith's -- 13,114 edits ... 49.24%

 * Qwyrxian -- 24,384 edits ... 50.13%
 * Tenmei -- 54,839 edits ... 73.92%

The edit history of Bobthefish2 shows only 5% of his total edits are invested in articles. In contrast, 60% of your edits are related to enhancing the quality of our articles. --Tenmei (talk) 20:33, 21 June 2011 (UTC)


 * At Wikipedia:Mediation Committee/Policy#Groups of disputants, factions in mediation are recognized; and they are identified as "a group". For example, we are able discern a number of common factors in the contribution histories of Lvhis, STSC and Bobthefish2.

 * Now the city that you know
 * Has become an empty field,
 * From which the skylark rises
 * And your tears fall.

In a difficult situation, you have done well.

Sometimes I followed your lead because the rationale was congruent with your edits at List of tributaries of Imperial China. In other words, your strategy was consistent with WP:V, i.e.,
 * "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true."

This cannot be repeated too often -- especially in contexts which seem to value "spin" rather than the specifics of a permanent edit history. --Tenmei (talk) 15:16, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Stop harassing me
I don't know what your problem is, but I've been here on wikipedia for one month and you are already harassing me and following my every step like an obsessive person with a personal vendetta. And seriously, "thank you" for wanting to start a possible edit war with my edits (I really have no desire in participating, I noticed it on my watch page). Also, reasons: Either report me for whatever you are accusing me or let me be. I'm dead serious, report me or let me be. Caca7 (talk) 15:22, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * V-1_flying_bomb - "Ume" is a Japanese term and "plum" is the English term. Thus I replaced "ume" with "plum" in the translation in this English wiki.
 * Fireworks - I've added basic information that you removed for being "unsourced" like that, but now I have provided a reference in detail.
 * Vinegar - I removed info of the byproduct Umezu (sour plum liquid) not being a true vinegar in an article about vinegar, trivial info as stated in the edit summary and there is no mention of it being considered a vinegar-ish product to warrant the info being in a vinegar article. Also it is unsourced, which I find ironic since you give anyone a hard time about basic info being unsourced (and remove it) while this is added back by you unquestioned too. Though this wasn't even a reason for me to remove it. Might as well make a list of what is not vinegar there.

Pro-Wikipedia
I propose a strategy to combat the contrived appearance of an WP:edit war by using words like this in all future edit summaries at Senkaku Islands and Senkaku Islands dispute:
 * This is a "PRO-WIKIPEDIA" edit. This edit is explained in detail and in advance on talk page

Please consider this pair of edits at Senkaku Islands dispute:
 * 1) diff 17:35, 19 July 2011 Tenmei (talk | contribs) (58,318 bytes) (Undid revision 440335859 by Lvhis pro-Wikipedia -- This revert explained in detail and in advance on talk page)
 * 2) diff 16:55, 19 July 2011 Lvhis (talk | contribs) (58,346 bytes) (Reverted 1 edit by Oda Mari (talk): This is a POV title. rv Japanese POV pushing. (TW))

The edit summary of Lvhis is an example of Framing (social science). We need to reject the false dilemma. Do you understand the meaning of the logical fallacy in a "false dilemma"?

Lvhis sets up a misleading pro vs con schema.

A better strategy is to emphasize a "pro-Wikipedia" foundation -- that is, to underscore that our edits are not


 * pro-Japan nor anti-Japan


 * pro-PRC nor anti-PRC


 * pro-ROC nor anti-ROC

In point of fact, an extensive edit history informs my belief that Oda Mari's interests are demonstrably "pro-Wikipedia" ....

For us, the first and foremost question is: What is best for the long-term prospects of our collaborative editing project?

What do you think? --Tenmei (talk) 18:15, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Warning
My article on South Korean stance on Kuril Islands dispute is NEUTRAL and supported with various sources. There is nothing in the article that is not true. Obviously South Korea supports Russia on Kuril Islands dispute and 3 members of the National Assembly did visit Kuril Islands on May 2011. It comes to my attention that you are blatantly erasing my article, which I have putted my efforts on, just because of your right-wing political stance. I suggest you to keep in mind that 'Wikipedia' is a place where everyone edits neutrally, not with any pre-bias or perception. Also, you mentioned that the article is not supported by sources. However, if you take a closer look at sources, it actually does. Can you even understand Korean, or are you using Google Translate to verify sources? It is almost pathetic how you are trying to erase the article, but as a matter of fact you are only trying to stop the general public knowing 'truth'. I believe all Wikipedia readers deserve their rights to know what other country's stance is, on Kuril Islands dispute. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hangyun (talk • contribs) 10:38, 28 July 2011 (UTC) This is a warning: If you disrupt peace in Wikipedia by erasing my article again, and edit articles with political motive, as you did at Kuril Islands dispute, you may be banned from Wikipedia without further notice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hangyun (talk • contribs) 10:23, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Hangyun, I strongly suggest you stop threatening editors when you don't know what you're talking about. Even if Phoenix7777 is wrong (and note that I am not implying that xe is), what xe has done isn't even worthy of a block, much less a ban. Please calm down, and discuss the issue at the article talk page.  Right now, Phoenix is saying that what you wrote does not match what the article says. For those of us who don't read Korean, we may need an actual translation of the article to proceed.  Qwyrxian (talk) 12:15, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Untimely deletion
There were some things worth salvaging from mediation -- for example, your diffs and mine.

The deletion of all diffs from our mediation is summed up in an idiomatic expression -- throw out the baby with the bath water.

The few, small successes of collaborative editing are thrown away carelessly.

The deletion of the mediation threads was unexpected. For me, the surprise was also untimely. I asked Feezo to restore the missing diffs. There was no response. I asked for Nihonjoe's help. He suggested here that I may need to ask an arbitrator to do this. Elen of the Road explained here that it is standard practice when a failed mediation results in an arbcom case for the mediators to delete the files - it's part of MEDCOM's ground rules for mediation that it cannot subsequently be used as evidence against any of the parties.
 * (Deletion log); 21:29 . . Feezo (talk | contribs) deleted "Wikipedia talk:Requests for mediation/Senkaku Islands" (For the Mediation Committee, due to arbitration case)

I have no interest in "evidence against any of the parties." For me, that is quite beside the point, tangential, unimportant.

I read nothing that would have reasonably warned me that deletion of all diffs would be a direct consequence of Qwyrxian's request for arbitration. Did you?

The fact of the matter is that your very few diffs were useful and constructive and I do not see any good reason for us to throw them away like smelly garbage. --Tenmei (talk) 05:25, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Disabling Twinkle specifically
Considering that my edit summary got chewed up by Twinkle: It is now no longer possible to revoke access to Twinkle separately from editing access. The capability was removed during the rewrite of Twinkle earlier this year because the consensus at that time was that it was too easy to circumvent, it was too easy to break Twinkle entirely when modifying the block list, and that the admins that joined in the discussion said that they would be more likely to block a person outright than to remove Twinkle access. So the troublesome feature was done away with (and good riddance to it). SchuminWeb (Talk) 12:49, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Arbitration/Requests/Case/Senkaku Islands closed
An arbitration case regarding Senkaku Islands has now closed and the final decision is viewable at the link above. The following remedies have been enacted:
 * 1) User:Tenmei is indefinitely topic banned from the subject of Senkaku Islands, widely construed. The topic ban includes talk pages, wikipedia space and userspace.
 * 2) Tenmei is advised that his unusual style of communication has not been conducive to resolving this dispute. Accordingly, Tenmei is urged to develop a different style of communication, which is more similar to that used by experienced Wikipedia editors. Until this happens, Tenmei is advised not to engage in topics which are the subject of a dispute.
 * 3) Tenmei is banned for one year.
 * 4) User:Bobthefish2 is topic banned from the subject of Senkaku Islands, widely construed, for one year . The topic ban includes talk pages, wikipedia space and user space.
 * 5) User:STSC is warned to avoid any sexualisation of discussions, especially during disputes.
 * 6) The parties are reminded that attempts to use Wikipedia as a battleground may result in the summary imposition of additional sanctions, up to and including a ban from the project.
 * 7) The topic covered by the article currently located at Senkaku Islands, interpreted broadly, is placed under standard discretionary sanctions. Any uninvolved administrator may levy restrictions as an arbitration enforcement action on users editing in this topic area, after an initial warning.
 * 8) An uninvolved administrator may, after a warning given a month prior, place any set of pages relating to a territorial dispute of islands in East Asia, broadly interpreted, under standard discretionary sanctions for six months if the editing community is unable to reach consensus on the proper names to be used to refer to the disputed islands. While a territorial dispute is subject to discretionary sanctions due to this remedy, any uninvolved administrator may levy restrictions as an arbitration enforcement action on users editing in these topical areas, after an initial warning.

Bottle keep
Thank you very much for adding to the "Bottle keep" entry! Not only does that photo speak a thousand words, you also added two great references! Say, do you know anyone who could write a Japanese Wikipedia article for it? A ボトルキープ doesn't seem to exist, not at the moment (2012-11-25 00h GMT)— but there's some occurrences of "ボトルキープ" in the (ja-)encyclopedia which link (redlink) to it. And: presumably whoever could make a "ボトルキープ" stub there could throw a &#x5B;&#x5B;Category:飲酒文化&#x5D;&#x5D; into it ...along with whatever else that my near-nil command of Japanese has missed. —sburke@cpan.org (talk) 00:22, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for posting the POV-push translation in Talk:Liancourt Rocks; I was trying to show what the POV-pusher thought, without agreeing with him/her, but I guess I was being very reckless at putting such POV in the talk page of a very controversial topic.

Can you please stop being such a drama queen?
Are you not able to accept that people might not agree with the way you're bloating up the discussion page? I don't see you think you have the right to be a complete drama queen and threaten other people of bans, and how he has the nerve to move out his own clutter and not everyone else's. In words you can understand more easily: "お前は何様？" The section was hatted because it was clutter - we don't need someone to repeat a bunch of policies here. For those of us who have been here for quite some time we know what the policies are, you don't need to point out quotes for us. It takes up a huge chunk of space within this page, and to be honest, it's an eyesore when I'm trying to navigate the page to see what the hell is going on. If you want to make an argument, mentioning the policy is sufficient enough. Rewriting whole chunks of policy within this page is unnecessary clutter, which is the reason why I collapsed everybody's policy quotes, and not just yours; I'm not "unfairly targeting you" or "intentionally hiding things that aren't convenient for me", Phoenix7777, or whatever persecution complex excuse you can come up with. Stop this annoying rubbish, and realise that there's more to this planet than you. You're getting on my nerves, and it is really pissing me off. -- benlisquare T•C•E 05:32, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

Cherry blossom
I've provided a valid citation, you shouldn't deny this information because it's against your personal preference. And that claim is right within the same page and is accepted to be valid. "Cherry trees naturally grow in the middle northern or southern part of China, the area nearby the sea." Tingchiyu (talk) 10:55, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Tingchiyu. Thank you for responding to my request. Then your addition is redundant and unnecessary. By the way, you should provide a page number and a quote of the source you provided when your claim is disputed. Please note that "Cherry trees naturally grow in the middle northern or southern part of China, the area nearby the sea." is unsourced. So I can remove it unless you provide a reliable source. Cheers.
 * P.S. I am concerned that every years around this cherry blossom season, some editors claim the cherry blossom was originated in their native countries, especially Korea and China.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 10:58, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Because cherry trees naturally grow in these three areas during the ancient time, I can assume that cherry trees were originated from China, Korea and Japan before any of the corresponding civilizations were created. Tingchiyu (talk) 04:46, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Japan–Korea Treaty of 1910
You need to stop adding material back into this article without a clear consensus. While no one has reverted 4 times in 24 hours, it is still an edit war and you seem to be the most persistent in adding it back. WP:BURDEN states that it is up to you to demonstrate the utility and get the consensus. WP:BRD also makes it clear that once you've been reverted out, you don't revert back in. You stopped the DRN discussion, but perhaps that was a mistake. It doesn't matter what a professor says in an email, we are an encyclopedia and we require 3rd party verification from reliable sources, which that wouldn't fall under. Use the talk page, use WP:DRN, but stop just reverting back or you will force sanctions upon yourself. Dennis Brown &#124; 2¢ &#124; WER  01:34, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Diary of a Japanese Military Brothel Manager. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 21:59, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Your recent editing history at Diary of a Japanese Military Brothel Manager shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Yamazaki442
Hey Phoenix7777,

My apologies I was not aware of the 3 reverts in a 24 hour period rule. My question though is that while it is true that I have been going back and forth with what appears to be a few people from Mike Honda's camp. The thing that really upsets me though is that this Congressional Ethics Investigation is actually the most widely covered event of Congressman Honda's entire political career. Over 130 credible news sources have picked up the story and it appears to me that there are folks who might be paid to work for the Congressmen who are attempting to white wash his wikipedia page. What should I do to make sure that his wikipedia page is kept up to date, with all of the facts? It appears to me that the Congressman's friends are trying to make his wikipedia page into a self written, self aggrandizing biography page, not an objective source for information. My posts have been well sourced and non partisan regarding language tone. Is there anything that I can do within the guidelines of Wikipedia to make sure that his page is kept honest and up to date and not overly influenced by people who are trying to cover up the ongoing ethics investigation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yamazaki442 (talk • contribs) 20:49, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

User: Gass Gess
Hi, Phoenix,

I noticed that you posted a warning on user Gass Gess's Talk page that s/he would be subject to a ban if further posts in violation of Wikipedia policies were made. Can you elaborate on the basis for that move, and the procedures?

Your warning seems to have been effective, in the sense that there have been no Gass Gess posts since, but another user who has been troubled by this individual's "contributions" has reason to believe that he's simply switched to a sock puppet account. In addition, my attempts to revert some of this person's "contributions" to the Eurasian and Interracial Marriage articles have themselves been reverted by a well-meaning editor, who doesn't yet understand this individual's manifest nature and prediclictions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sprucegrouse  (talk • contribs)  14:15, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

First, thank you for adding this file and the effort it took to create it.

 * According to, the aircraft declared the emergency at 22:00 (Lima Time/UTC+11), which seems to be 4 minutes after ADB was lost at 02:56Z (21:56L) Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 21:42, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * It is probably an approximate time. It is unlikely that the emergency call was made after 02:56Z. From the speed (142 knot) at 02:55:48 and the distance to the crash site (approx. 20km), the time of the crash is around 03:00z.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 22:26, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

 * No. It is self-evedent. If you wish to remove the flags, you should prove that those flags are not similar to the rising sun flag.

Ooperhooft/Tenmei/Ansei/Enkyo2 was evading his one-year ArbCom-imposed site-ban
好久不見. I know it's super-old, but remember this guy?

It just came to my attention while I was looking for teaching materials on simple.wiki, but was definitely him (Horeki edited pages in Ansei's userspace, and the evidence on Simple English Wikipedia is even stronger). This means that the suspicion that his declared alt account (Ansei) may indicate that he was evading his block was valid, and might mean that after he got blocked indefinitely (almost a day after his last edit) three years ago he immediately started editing again under a new undeclared sock. Have you noticed anything suspicious? Or know anyone who might have?

Also pinging Fut.Perf, who almost certainly doesn't remember closing the block discussion back in 2013.

I've said a few times that I think a standard offer might be in order, but not if he's been evading the block all along.

Rising sun flag#Similar flags
I see that you restored the "Similar flags" section that I removed some months ago, but you did not give any reason. In my opinion, the section is just a subjective list that is not based on any sources and therefore constitutes original research. Please see also the discussion at Talk:Flag and the conclusion there: "the section shall be kept if it is possible to restrict them to rigorously sourced groupings that have some sort of strong logical explanation as to the similarities". Regards! --T*U (talk) 10:52, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * The RFC is surprisingly scarce so it is not appropriate to extend the RFC to other article than Flag. If you wish to remove the section of other article, more extensive discussions are required. Flag of the United States has many flags but there are sources for only three flags. If you successfully removed the unsourced flags of the article, I am willing to consent to removing the section of Rising sun flag. Until then, the section should be stayed there.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 07:23, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

I saw you made an earthquake map of Italy and I was wondering if you would have time to make one that features Bulgaria in the center.

 * Earthquakes in Bulgaria are far less active than Italy, Greece and other neighboring countries.

 * Hi JFG, I searched the trajectory data of Kepler, but could not find in either HORIZONS System or Index of /pub/naif/. Kepler is basically chasing Earth on the Earth's orbit and after 10 years from the launch, it is a sixth way behind Earth. I am not sure an animation of Kepler is impressive to viewers but if I find the data, I will try to produce an animation.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 22:02, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

2009 Sumatra earthquakes
Hi again, and let me rephrase that: I think what I want to do is just pass on to you what I have learned about working on earthquake articles. The first thing is that the ISC is considered the premier seismological organization (the USGS often cites them for their own figures), so if if there is an article that cites the ISC-GEM catalog, please just leave that in place. The second thing is about intensity. I had cited the USGS' figure of VII for the mainshock and you replaced it with IX and we both cited the same source.

What happened is this: you took the figure from the shakemap, which is a computer generated figure. The algorithm routinely overshoots the intensity, but mostly just by one intensity level. If you look at the "impact" section on the USGS site, you'll sometimes see comments that were left by a reviewing seismologist. They'll even list the intensity in various locations. This is where I obtained the VII figure. Please use this whenever possible (sometimes there is no content in the impact section) as using human generated details is preferable over computer generated. Please only use shakemap figures if there's nothing else available. Thanks, and apologies for the undo. I just figured this was a good opportunity to say hello and pass along these details. Cheers, Dawnseeker2000  07:21, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Did you see the current infobox? There are three errors because of parameters deprecated in March 2018. I just fixed them following the instruction described in the Template:Infobox earthquake which says "However, please do not simply copy the old values. These should be checked with an authoritative source such as the ANSS or ISC...". I consulted the ISC source[1], but it is not immediately available because a whole catalog must be downloaded by a request. So I followed the instruction and used the ANSS source. Anyway, I don't think you are satisfied by restoring the errors, please fix the errors by yourself.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 08:17, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Voyager initial orbits
Hello. Since you created File:Animation of Voyager 2 trajectory.gif, you obviously had access to the requisite data to answer this question: what were the Voyager 1 and 2 initial aphelia? In other words, how far out could they have gone if Jupiter hadn't been there? Urhixidur (talk) 01:34, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I am sorry but I don't understand your question. I plotted the trajectory from data obtained from Horizons. There is no trajectory data "if Jupiter hadn't been there".―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 03:35, 14 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Of course there is. I suppose the output can be requested as orbital parameters, which include semi-major axis and eccentricity? This would give you an aphelion somewhere beyond Jupiter. That's what I'm asking: when Voyager 2 left Earth, and until it encountered Jupiter, what was its orbit's aphelion? Urhixidur (talk) 12:10, 14 August 2019 (UTC)


 * There, done:
 * "Voyager 1′s initial orbit had an aphelion of 8.9 AU, just a little shy of Saturn's orbit of 9.5 AU. Voyager 2′s initial orbit had an aphelion of 6.2 AU, well short of Saturn's orbit. "
 * Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Urhixidur (talk) 12:51, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

COVID Diagram
Dear Phoenix7777,

Could you please double check.

I am concerned that you might have used the wrong value for the “Rest of the World” section. I also think you may have overdone the “Americas” section. I would like to insist that the diagram is corrected to show the actual values that are being recorded.

I thank you in advance, please could you inform me of the exact nature of the problem and could you also fix the diagram? Thank you. Pablothepenguin (talk) 19:43, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * According to the WHO Situation Report on 19 May 2020, new cases by WHO Region are:
 * Globally 112,637
 * Americas 65,134
 * Europe 19,125 and China 6
 * So, new cases other than Americas, Europe and China are 28,372. The graph reflected these figures faithfully. By the way, Americas is the American continent not the United States. There is a similar graph in the Situation Report on page 3. Please compare the two graphs.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 22:56, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of U.S. News & World Report Best Countries Rankings


A tag has been placed on U.S. News & World Report Best Countries Rankings requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.usnews.com/media/best-countries/overall-rankings-2020.pdf and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content#Text_2. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
