Japanese script tag

[edit]

Since article name and lead text consists of only general nouns, I removed Japanese script requesting tag. --Nightshadow28 (talk) 02:08, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Translation

[edit]

I have added an "Edo Period" subsection under "History", with material from the corresponding Japanese page. Autumnanachron003 (talk) 20:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Error in reduction?

[edit]

How is it that he got fined 500,000Y and then it was "reduced" to 1,500,000Y? Are we sure it shouldn't be the other way around? Or are we missing a number in the middle somewhere? Also, the other page (discussing this manga in... what I'd love to call "more detail", but it's almost verbatim the same content) doesn't specify the higher value, only that it was reduced to 1.5mln. Thoughts on that? 62.21.49.42 (talk) 17:39, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kishi got his sentence reduced by High Court from 1 year of prison (suspended to three years probation), to only a 1.5 million yen monetary fine with no jail. I did a small edit to show it was Kishi (not just "he") who got his sentence reduced. It was the other two defendants who plead guilty and got the 500,000Y fine from original court.--2601:601:1501:2010:85AB:A1B:3226:9D2D (talk) 10:36, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

'Internet Censhorship:' I was in Japan three years ago, & several of the prominent porn websites were blocked. I tried to access them from a few different browsers, & different computers, without being able to access websites like xvideos.com, or xhamster.com. Since, people I have spoken to have confirmed this apparent censorship of internet pornography in Japan.

Incorrect attribution

[edit]

The section Censorship in Japan#Occupation of Japan currently contains:

According to Donald Keene: ... This means, as Donald Keene observes, that for some producers of texts "the Occupation censorship was even more exasperating than Japanese military censorship had been because it insisted that all traces of censorship be concealed. This meant that articles had to be rewritten in full, rather than merely submitting XXs for the offending phrases."

Thus we have Keene quoting himself. That can't be correct, but I can't sort what is correct. Note that Dawn of the West is authored by Keene, not Rosenfeld, according to Amazon. ―Mandruss  15:53, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
