Yamato Museum
Hi, The museum's own website calls itself the "Yamato Museum", so I've moved the article back per WP:COMMONNAME. You are correct about Kure Maritime Museum being the official name, and from having visited the place only about a third or so of it is actually focused on the Yamato.

Help needed with Steve Comisar article.
Please be so kind as to help me edit the Steve Comisar article. I see that you have worked on it before. I'm new at this and don't know how to do it. I'd like to add these 2 new sentences to the end of the "career" section:

The FBI ranked Comisar in the top ten con men of all time, second only to Frank Abagnale, the subject of the motion picture, Catch Me if You Can, directed by Steven Spielberg.[12] Comisar had supporting roles as an actor in various motion pictures, television shows, and commercials.[3]

[12] is a new link from "The New York Observer" (reliable source): http://observer.com/2015/11/how-watching-mr-robot-made-me-paranoid-about-getting-hacked/

(see last 2 pages of Observer article referencing Comisar)

[3] is the existing link from the GQ Magazine article.

Thanks for your help with this. I'm only a beginner. Curiouskitten777 (talk) 13:08, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

GQ article is a reliable source.
The GQ article is a reliable source. It was an investigative piece written by Sabrina Erdely, an award-winning journalist. (see her Wikipedia page) The article clearly references Comisar's acting. GQ was used to reference Comisar's acting in the very first version of the article. Every subsequent version of the article over the past 4 years mentioned his acting until last month. The mention of his acting only became problematic when IMDb was added as an additional reference. One short sentence about his acting, referenced by GQ, at the end of the career section seems reasonable. This in no way implies that he is notable as an actor. This merely reveals the biographical fact that he did some acting. If anyone agrees, please edit.

"Comisar had supporting acting roles in several motion pictures, television shows, and commercials.[3]"

I also strongly disagree that the Observer piece is not a reliable source. It was not an opinion piece, and it was not from a blog. It was an investigative article from the actual New York Observer newspaper, a very reliable source. (see their Wikipedia page) I'd ask that you please reconsider this edit as well. If anyone agrees, please edit.

"The FBI has ranked Comisar in the top ten con men of all time, second only to Frank Abagnale, the subject of the motion picture, Catch Me if You Can, directed by Steven Spielberg.[12]"

I completely agree with everything else that all of the other editors had to say about this article. A big heartfelt thanks to @Tokyogirl79, @DanielRigal, @LjL, and @Onel5969, for educating me on the Wikipedia editing process. You all seem like very intelligent, dedicated, and decent people. Keep up the good work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.115.188.114 (talk) 20:46, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
