The result was Procedural close.. Over the past week, this article has been Merged into Shinabe clans leaving this page as a simple Redirect. I would have closed this discussion as a Soft Delete if it hadn't already been emptied of content and I see no value in deleting a valid Redirect. Liz Read! Talk! 23:35, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Fuhitobe

Please draftify. The topic may have potential but the text of the article makes no sense. To begin with, the first paragraph introduces four names (Fuhitobe, History Department, Tomo, and Kabane) without making it clear if these are synonyms or in any way different. The next paragraph continues with new names without any bridging between the paragraphs. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:06, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete. This is a direct translation of the first link, which is a non-free source, Encyclopedia Nipponica. It is also somewhat inaccurately done (for example, they weren't "given the family name 'Kabane' (史)", they were "given the kabane (family name) Fuhito/Fubito (史)"). As noted above, the topic itself might have potential, but this is not something that can be fixed in its current form. Dekimasu よ! 15:18, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
 * To be honest, this appears to point at an uncomfortable overlap between the editing and citation patterns of certain editors, but at any rate it looks like other pages in the category also need attention (e.g. Shinabe clan, which is a translation of the Japanese Wiki page but has a number of other problems) and other pages involving similar topics are also worth a look (e.g. Yamatai Honshu Theory).

 * Subsequent edits here made what I was referring to unclear, but this cannot really be considered an improvement: there was no person called "Fuhito Be". Dekimasu よ! 06:46, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
