Thanks for uploading the image
I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the image and I'll tag it for you. Thanks, Kbh3rd 23:29, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Fair use should cover it. There is a {{screenshot}} tag for exactly this sort of usage. I've applied that tag to the image. Thanks! Kbh3rd 16:58, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Re: Tsushima Yuko, Hi!
- I just passed by this article due to an ongoing survey of matters involving 'Tsushima', viz., Tsushima City, Tsushima District, et al. as part of evaluatin whether a compromise on a MOVE TO (rename) Tsushima Islands, to the singular, or create a Tsushima (Disambigulation), etc. are better choices. These matters are going a formal vote on Talk:Tsushima Islands, and your POV is welcomed as there has been a nasty edit war going on — as I appealed for help with on the Japanese Interests BB yesterday. Three juveniles with nothing better to do except squabble! Bring a fire hose, and cast a vote — it's not MY country!
- In any event you authored the subject article, Tsushima Yuko, and there is an obvious math flaw in the article. If she was born in 1947, and started writting when 21, she would first have written in 1968, Not 1974 as the article states.
Since I don't know which datum is in error, I bring it to your attention. Best wishes, FrankB
- You just got that in there in time--I was about to archieve. Thanks for the Vote. User:Fabartus || Talkto_FrankB 6 July 2005 15:49 (UTC)
Regarding Dazai
While it is true that his name is said as "Dazai Osamu" in the Japanese language, in English his works are published with the naming order "Osamu Dazai". It is a common practice to switch Japanese names (of contemporary figures, of course) around so Western audiences do not confuse the last name with the first. This practice is rarely done with Koreans and Chinese since they apparently are more sensitive about the family name. WhisperToMe 00:19, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
