Usurpation of the account Enkyo

Hi, Enkyo2. I saw you tried to rename to Enkyo and it was declined because the name was already registered to a global account. However, if it passed years since the last edit of the account, the usurpation of the account is available. It will take about ten days after your request if no response to an email notification returned. You can try and leave it for ten days. ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 08:52, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your helpful words. --Enkyo2 13:06, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Nippon Era's

Hi I noticed that you contributed a lot to these articles (your name kept propping up in the talk pages) - do you think those era's should be merged together? I mean the Taika (645–650) Hakuchi (650–654) Shuchō (686–686) Taihō (701–704) Keiun (704–708) Wadō (708–715) periods? NarSakSasLee (talk) 16:35, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

It is not clear why you seem to suggest that articles about specific Japanese era names should be merged. For example, each of these articles is an independent subject with explicit and different support cited from more than one reliable source:

• Taika (era) → Takia (era)#References
• Hakuchi → Hakuchi (era)#Notes
• Shuchō → Shuchō#Notes
• Taihō → ... etc.
• Keiun → ... etc.
• Wadō → ... etc.

For me, the point of your question is not understood. --Enkyo2 12:38, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Re: Moving of "X family" to "X clan"

Regarding the series of moves your Ansei account made at the start of May, could you be a bit more careful? Most, if not all, of them were/are branches of Fujiwara/Minamoto/... clans, rather than clans themselves. I've already moved Nijo back, and will work on the others in a bit if you don't wanna do it yourself. Cheers! Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:48, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

"Jimmu" and others

Enkyo, why did you violate WP:SELFREF when you had clearly already seen on the talk page where I had pointed you to the Wikipedia style guideline where we have an established consensus on how to romanize that?? Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 15:57, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi Enkyo,

I opened an ANI thread on you. This is not personal, and it's not about content (where I think I agree with you). It's about your use of language (and images, etc) on talk pages. Very difficult to understand. Maybe someone needs to teach you how to communicate on Wikipedia. This seemed the easiest way.

Cheers!

Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 14:09, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi Enkyo2, I haven't had time to look at this but appears to be the same old; I think you're a great, v.interesting, and v.informative communicator; my advice would be not to get bogged down in discussion with someone who thinks fit to write like this but to move on to one of the tens of thousands of other pages which need your time and learning, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 21:37, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Links to related threads are here and here. --Enkyo2 (talk) 13:16, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

I added an inline-note here which mirrors WP:MOS-JA#Syllabic "n". A review of the guideline page history shows that these sentences were drafted by Jpatokal in 2004 here and the section was created by Nihonjoe in 2008 here. The guideline suggests "Use Google to check popularity if in doubt, and create a redirect from the n version" -- compare the list of Google Books Ngram Viewer results posted by Kusunose here.

Since 2009, there have been similar notes in the first paragraphs of articles about Emperor Temmu, Emperor Kimmei, Emperor Mommu, Empress Gemmei and Emperor Kammu -- compare Talk:Emperor Temmu#Tenmu vs Temmu. These spelling notes were each deleted by Hijiri88 with unhelpful edit summaries:

• 14:05, 22 August 2013 diff . . Emperor Temmu ‎ (WP:SELFREF, WP:POINT.)
• 14:08, 22 August 2013 diff . . Emperor Kimmei ‎ (WP:SELFREF; WP:POINT.)
• 14:12, 22 August 2013 diff . . Emperor Mommu ‎ (WP:SELFREF; WP:POINT.)
• 14:16, 22 August 2013 diff . . Empress Gemmei ‎ (WP:SELFREF; WP:POINT.)
• 14:19, 22 August 2013 diff . . Emperor Kammu ‎ (WP:SELFREF; WP:POINT.)

This is moving in the wrong direction. --Enkyo2 (talk) 20:09, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

A review of the edit histories of these articles and most others about the Japanese emperors reveals a cross-checking system of cited sources. This includes Delmer Brown's 1980 translation of Gukanshō and H. Paul Varley's 1979 translation of Jinnō Shōtōki -- compare List of Emperors of Japan#Notes. See JSTOR reviews of Brown's work here and Varley's work here. --Enkyo2 (talk) 12:57, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Enkyo PLEASE be coherent and stop making unrelated rants on talk pages

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 12:17, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

The work just keeps right on rolling along

This is a pretext for continuing a pattern which is difficult to parse neatly -- see here and here. The fact that this is a pretext needs to be made explicit. I can only hope that the mere act of naming it will diminish its power to cause harm. --Enkyo2 (talk) 12:50, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

• See Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#Titsingh's_Annals_of_the_Emperors_of_Japan
• See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#‎Enkyo2 making everything personal and being completely incoherent?

Enkyo, please see my request for you to respond in this ANI thread. Kim Dent-Brown ^(Talk) 21:38, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

ANI

A comment that another made about you has been quoted at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Canada-based_IP_user_posting_problematically_in_hundreds_of_RMs. Do not worry the editor whose conduct is under discussion is not you. You may want to take part in the discussion.--Toddy1 (talk) 10:01, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

Enkyo, please could I ask that you engage in this discussion at AN/I, rather than suspending editing and waiting until it has been archived? It may be a coincidence that you restarted editing just after the previous thread was archived, bit if so it's an unfortunate one as it gives the appearance of trying to escape scrutiny. Now, if you have resumed editing again could you please join the AN/I discussion? To be honest, I find Hijiri's complaints a little shrill and repetitive, but equally I have to say that I find your communication style opaque and unhelpful. The problem between the two of you is not going to go away if we ignore it. Please join the discussion. Kim Dent-Brown ^(Talk) 15:27, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Enkyo, I looked at your contribs to see whether you had again ceased editing while the new ANI thread is open and found this. I assume it's your response to the ANI thread but I strongly advise against you posting it in this form. As it stands it entirely vindicates Hijiri's point that your communication is verbose to the point of impenetrability. Post it if you will, but expect that it will make your opponent's point for them rather than strengthening your own position. Kim Dent-Brown ^(Talk) 21:40, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Bank of Canada (logo).gif)

Thanks for uploading File:Bank of Canada (logo).gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Werieth (talk) 20:59, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Blocked

Per the results of the recent ANI thread about you [1], I have blocked you from editing for an indefinite period. You may appeal for an unblock (to the community or to Arbcom) if and when you can demonstrate that you have understood what has been wrong about your communicative behaviour, and can make a credible commitment to improve. Until such time, I am afraid the community has run out of patience with you and you must be prevented from editing. Fut.Perf. ☼ 12:30, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup for old User page

Hi, Enkyo2! This is to let you know that I have blanked the content from your old User page (User:Ansei). That page is now a redirect to your current User page (this page), so nobody will ever see the content. But because the old User page is now a redirect, the content was interfering with the Help page for the Japanese language template. So I deleted the content. Is that OK?
The content is still available in the history page of your old User page (User:Ansei), so you can view it at any time. And the redirect from your old User page to your new one still works properly, so I think that should be OK. If you have any problem with all of this, you can undo it simply by undoing my edit. Thanks, and thanks for your contributions to Japanese history. -- Margin1522 (talk) 14:32, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Tom L. Humphries

The article Tom L. Humphries has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A search for references failed to find significant coverage in reliable sources to comply with notability requirements. This included web searches for news coverage, books, and journals, which can be seen from the following links:
Tom L. Humphries – news, books, scholar
Consequently, this article is about a subject that appears to lack sufficient notability. Please see the plain-language summary of our notability guidelines.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
