==Redirects==Hello, Nekohakase, I noticed that you took the photo of Okada Masumi-san yourself. I would like to know if you know Okada-san personally, and if you have more photos of him. I am a fan of Okada-san. Thank you for your kind attention. Easterbunny98. Easterbunny98 (talk) 06:24, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

I created a short article on the movie Legend of the Eight Samurai moments ago. The original Japanese title of the film is Satomi Hakkenden. Is it possible for a search of Satomi Hakkenden to be linked to the same article, or do I have to create a new article for Satomi Hakkenden as well, even though it is the same film? (Nekohakase 22:56, 1 March 2006 (UTC))

You would have to make a redirect. Would you like me to take care of that for you? Krashlandon (e) 22:58, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Does this film have anything to do with Nanso Satomi Hakkenden? Krashlandon (e)

If I were you, I would just move your article to the Japanese name. That will create an auto redirect. --Krashlandon (e) 23:13, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

I will try that!! Thank you! (Nekohakase 23:17, 1 March 2006 (UTC))

PS - Nanso Satomi Hakkenden.... is that a movie? If so, perhaps there is a connection. According to the IMDB, though, the movie's name is Satomi Hakkenden... I haven't heard of the Nanso part. Perhaps that refers to another version of the story.

(Nekohakase 23:19, 1 March 2006 (UTC))

南総 (nansō) is in the book's title, but not the film's. See Kyokutei Bakin. Also, you'll want to read meta:Help:Moving a page, don't copy/paste content, as that loses the edit history. --zippedmartin 23:27, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Helpme

Hi, I created a page for Japanese playwright Noda Hideki. There also seems to be a race-car driver of the same name. How do I disambiguate that? Is there a special code to do so?

Thank you Nekohakase 19:39, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

You have two options (just ask me if you want help implementing the one you choose)

1. Just place a note at the top of Noda hideki pointing to the motor racer, eg For the race car drvier, see Noda hideki (driver).
2. Or move the playwright, Noda hideki, to Noda hideki (playright) and at Noda hideki make a disambiguation page leading to the the two different people.

Wikipedia:Disambiguation explains these options. You would do (1) if the playwright is the most popular, or (2) is they are of comparable popularity. Again, just ask me if you need a hand.--Commander Keane 19:48, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar

		The Barnstar of High Culture

How to move a page

To move a page, please use the "move" tab at the top of the page. This preserves the edit history (the "history" tab).

Using copy and paste to perform the move breaks the GFDL copyright license that wikipedia operates under, and is not permitted. --Victim of signature fascism | Do people who don't think Jesus existed exist? 23:29, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

P.s. you won't be able to move articles to locations that already have articles at them. So you will have to wait for the article you created the copy at to be deleted before the article you were trying to move can be moved.

You're too slow ril (though you beat me to the db box) :D --zippedmartin 23:34, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

I have a number of pictures of various Japanese actors and actresses, most of them taken myself. :) But I am not sure of the way to upload pictures and put them on a page. What is the procedure and code for doing that?

Nekohakase 20:21, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure if you know about it or not, but Wikimedia Commons is a sister project of Wikipedia. You can upload photos there, which will benefit all Wikimedia projects. See [1] for more information. If the pictures are of famous actors and actresses, you can upload them on Commons, and license them under a free licnse. If the actors are non-famous, it would be better to ask them to say that they gave their consent to have the pictures taken. Ideally with an email to permissions@wikimedia.org. To upload on commons, just click on the "upload file" link to the left. --Shanel 20:40, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Extended image syntax has examples of how to put the images in articles. Say you uploaded an image called Test1.jpg to the Commons (or Wikipedia). You would go the the correct article and insert [[Image:Test1.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hello, this is a caption!]]--Commander Keane 21:12, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Wow, thanks! I learned something new today!（^o^)/ Nekohakase 21:17, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Shohei Imamura image

Hi, Nekohakase. That's a nice picture of Imamura, and I'm glad to see it in the article. Unfortunately someone has marked it as having no copyright licensing... I see you took it yourself. I don't know myself how to mark it properly, but I hope you can find out how, and remove the licensing request. Otherwise it will probably be deleted soon, and that would be a shame. -- Rizzleboffin 00:03, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to try uploading it again under a different name and licensing... there's a choice there of "self made" that I never noticed before! Thanks! Nekohakase 17:39, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Great, Nekohakase! That should do the job. I'm just about done creating stubs for all of Imamura's films, and hope to do some more work on the main article tonight. -- Rizzleboffin 21:28, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Deletion

while trying to categorise the uncategorised stuff, i come across a lot of garbage. what is the tag to suggest an article for deletion? Is that just a job for administrators? (Nekohakase 17:49, 19 September 2006 (UTC))

No, it is job for every Wikipedian! You can find instructions about how to nominate a page for deletion at WP:AFD. If the page is truly garbage and you think that it's an uncontroversial deletion, you can do a proposed deletion instead. If you need more assistance, let me know on my talk page and I'll guide you through it. -- Merope ^Talk 17:56, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! (Nekohakase 17:58, 19 September 2006 (UTC))

Deletion

Hi, I noticed you listed a few things at AfD that meet speedy deletion criteria. You may want to use it. Keep up the good work.--Andeh 18:54, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip! Fortunately those exceptional pages seem to be rare... I don't wat to make a mistake, so I want to see if anyone will contest the nomination. I could be wrong, especially when it comes to notability. Nekohakase 19:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Copyright and User talk pages

Sorry if I sounded rude. It's just that Wikipedia really can't afford to take chances anymore with copyright. Thanks for answering quickly. BTW, if you could use the User talk page instead of User, it might be best, if only because I won't get the message when you edit my User page until I look at my watchlist.Circeus 14:33, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Kiwi!

Hi. Regarding your tagging of the video clip's article with multiple notability tags: an earlier instance of the article was deleted due to unverifiability. I took this matter up with the deleter when Kiwi! won an official YouTube award, one of the only seven given out so far, and with it coverage on CNN, ABC and the like. We agreed that this was sufficient. On this basis, I removed your tags; if you wish to discuss readding them, at which you'll probably steamroll me, please do take up the matter. --Kizor 19:06, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Nah, I don't really care. My opinion is just one opinion, as yours is just an opinion, do as you wish. Nekohakase 08:16, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Sweet, thanks. --Kizor 16:25, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

New Category

I would like to start a new category for people involved in Philosophy of Science. (There seems to be a large number in the general category above.) But last time I tried to start a category I made a mistake. How do I start a category? Also, is "philosophy of science people" an appropriate title for such a category?Nekohakase 23:04, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Have you checked Wikipedia:Categorical index to see if there's already a similar category? *Cremepuff222* "As cool as grapes..." 23:27, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, that helped. Nekohakase 23:32, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Okay, no problem. :) *Cremepuff222* "As cool as grapes..." 23:34, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Categorization

Hi, I'm wondering... I have been categorizing hundreds of articles over the past couple of months... how can I apply to receive a star for my efforts? Nekohakase 08:27, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you don't. Someone stumbles across your efforts and gives you a barnstar. Just down to luck. They're overrated and most admins don't have many, so don't be too concerned about barnstars. There's a lot of pointless giving and receiving between friends and such for no good reason. Nick 08:42, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh... Hmm. I see. Thank you for the help! :) Nekohakase 08:53, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Japanese Wikipedia Vandalism

{{helpme}} I want to report major vandalism on a Wikipedia page... on the Japanese version. How do I do that?

See WP:AIV and WP:Vandalism. Sorry, I don't know too much... Wait, let me try something... Nevermind, didn't seem to work. Cheers! Vltava 68 (talk) 08:59, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi. http://ja.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:進行中の荒らし行為 is the Japanese Wikipedia equivalent of Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Though you may be better to revert it and warn the user. Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 09:05, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
