Yasuke

[edit]

Regarding this comment, please mind WP:BLPTALK. he spreads a false history to the world that is based on his own delusions is not acceptable and may result in sanctions. Same goes for such a story is a ridiculous one told by people who are ignorant of history ... It is because of people like this that the influence of the false history that has spread is so great. I suggest you self-revert and re-write your comment in a BLP-compliant way. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 18:04, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, I would like to thank you for pointing it out. However, I will not correct it even if I am punished.
Thomas Lockley himself admits that he wrote the book by prioritizing his own imagination, rather than the sources. 1
Changing the harshness of David Atkinson's comments would mean changing what he meant to say. 2
Why not encourage Thomas Lockley to apologize for the falsified history he has published in his books and in the media? Or how about we warn people like David Adkins not to say any more? I think it would be easier for you to talk to them than me, whose native language is Japanese and my English is bad. Tanukisann (talk) 13:52, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest you read the following:
  • RSN: Reliability of Thomas Lockley. Most of the editors argued that "African Samurai: The True Story of Yasuke, a Legendary Black Warrior in Feudal Japan" is not a reliable source. It is a work of historical fiction. While there's nothing wrong with historical fiction - it is a legitimate and often entertaining literary genre - it cannot be cited as a source on Wikipieda. In fact, the article Yasuke does not cite that book. You are tilting at windmills: you are discussing about things that were discussed months ago. That discussion is now over, and "African Samurai: The True Story of Yasuke" is not a reliable source.
  • However, there is a broad consensus that this article by Lockley is reliable. Along with other scholarly sources, it describes Yasuke as a samurai. WP editors have had no less than two RFCs on this issue (1 and 2) and the current consensus is that Yasuke should be described as a samurai. If you are interested in this topic, please read the two RfCs. And mind WP:IDHT: Sometimes, editors perpetuate disputes by sticking to a viewpoint long after community consensus has decided that moving on would be more productive. This is disruptive.
  • Regardless of all this, it is not acceptable for you to use derogatory language about a living person. You can criticise their work, but not the person. If you do, you will definitely be blocked per WP:BLPTALK.
  • Please read also WP:TALK. Talk page discussion should be focused WP:TALK#TOPIC. Please address a specific point in the article and refrain from making general/irrelevant comments about the author of a source.

This was posted while I was working on fixing the template, so I'll just reply with one comment.
No matter what Westerners say, Japanese people do not trust Thomas Lockley at all. Tanukisann (talk) 16:33, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It seems like you are completely disliked. Give up now. That's right, let me point something out for him. The number of deaths at Honnoji Temple, including Nobunaga, is not 30. It is nearly twice as many, 60. Why did Lockley halve the number, and why did he say in a media interview that he witnessed Nobunaga's seppuku? It was all a production to make Yasuke a special person who could be by Nobunaga's side. Thomas Lockley continues to lie, even in the Encyclopedia Britannica. 114.168.141.180 (talk) 17:39, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They are being harsh in their words because they are ignorant, but they don't understand anything.
Read this and study it.

These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations.

I am posting as you stepped away just before the topic was designated a contentious topic - and you are making/editing pages related to Yasuke.
While here I'd like to ask if Special:Contributions/140.227.46.9 this is your alternate since they just linked a niche page you translated recently as an example on talk:Yasuke, and you both seem to edit the same 4 pages. Relm (talk) 20:10, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
