Edo/Edo period
Thank you very much for your edits to these two pages; I am sure you're excited to get started on contributing, and that's great! A tip, however: it is common practice here on the 'pedia to (1) only wikilink a term once per article. i.e. if Tokugawa Ieyasu appears earlier in the article, there is no need to wikilink every later instance of Ieyasu or Tokugawa Ieyasu within the same article. (2) leave un-wikilinked especially common terms. This is a much more subjective one, and you're welcome to do whatever you feel comfortable with; I personally very rarely wikilink terms like Japan, Japanese language, samurai and the like. Years are another thing that fall under this category - there's no need to link every year or date mentioned in an article, only the ones that are especially important to the subject. But again, this is subjective, and flexible to your own preferences.

I have no intention to be harsh, and I hope I have not come across that way; I am one of a number of major contributors to Japan-related articles here on the 'pedia, particularly subjects relating to the Edo period and earlier - If I can help you in any way, please feel free to ask.

You can also check out WikiProject Japan and, if it's your thing, WikiProject Military history/Japanese military history task force, for more ways to get involved, people to talk to and work with, and some helpful guidelines and advice.

Good luck! LordAmeth 18:13, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Toku. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Toku~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:22, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
