"... now the Japanese call it 'kobayashi style' but that is incorrect - but that is all right because only people who do not know Okinawan karate will call it by that name. Since they do not know you must gently remind them or the Okinawan people will laugh at their ignorance. After all, it is funny, many foreign people call it kobayashi shorin-Ryu - that is just like saying shorin shorin-ryu. It doesn't make much sense ..."

Karate-related articles
Hello. I have noticed that you had made significant changes to the articles relating to Shorin-ryu. I just wanted to let you know that your edits are being reverted not because of the content, but rather the way you are going about making the changes. Large changes to articles should first be discussed on either the articles' talk pages, or the talk page of the WikiProject that encompasses the articles' topic (in this case, WikiProject Martial arts). Additionally, when renaming an article, it must be done with the move button, rather than by cutting and pasting the text. Before you make any further modifications to the articles, please create a new discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Martial arts and explain how you think the articles should be changed. Then, once consensus has been achieved, the articles can be renamed and refocused to better reflect an accurate history of Shorin-ryu. Thanks. --Scott Alter 14:10, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
