This was cut and pasted here since it applies to this article.  

Could someone please tell me where to post the information I have put in the Japanese alias article?  That wording for the notice about Wikibooks: ""Please help improve this article by removing or rewriting the how-to content, which may qualify for a move to Wikibooks."" is confusing.  If I remove the how-to nature of this article, I can move it to Wikibooks?  I want to leave the how-to nature, and post this somewhere.  My apologies for inappropriately posting it there.  

Hi. Can you tell us which article you want to edit, and what kind of thing you want to add?  ►  

Thanks for your reply.  Sorry, I should have internal linked that.  I want to edit the article Japanese alias.  I have posted the need for sources myself.  However, the other two warnings at the top of the page, in addition to a ""This article or section is written like a personal reflection or essay and may require cleanup."" warning appear to have come-up automatically.  I would like to resolve these issues.Cheers.  
Rewrite the article to have a more neutral tone. Phrases like ""The best way to determine an alias is to take several months..."" read more like a how-to than an article. See WP:BETTER for more information as well.  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 

(my own opinion on this) - I hope you don't decide to take it elsewhere; it has the beginnings of a good wiki article. Don't be dismayed by the boxes at the top. Most people here want to make the encyclopedia better, and are posting their thoughts on that basis. Ok, there will always be a few that disparage anything, but...ride with it.

I am now going to read the article more fully, and post further comments when I have. I sincerely hope that will help you develop the article. I will post them in about 10 mins from now.  ►  

Thanks for your help and your encouragement.  Are those warnings appearing automatically, or is that someone's judgment?  If the latter, I would be glad to consult them for advice too.  If that is possible, please let me know how. Wiki on!  

Re. warnings, who - I'll check into them and get back to you shortly. In the meantime, here's some hastily-written scribbles;

Lead - that is, the first bit, before the 'purpose' section starts: Explain what is meant by an alias, use synonymns for 'alias', don't repeat it. Remember the 'lead' should not contain any info that is not in the body of the article - it's a summary. Which is why I suggest leaving it until last - write the whole thing, THEN make the lead to summarise the content.

The wikihelp says to use the article title in the first bit, but I have edited it some.  Thanks.  

Re. Alien ID - from a quick search, I can't find an article about alien registration cards - I'm very suprised. Maybe there is one. There should be. You shouldn't need an external link; 

If not, I'd be very tempted to create one! Even if just a stub saying what they are, where to get one (ku office etc), why it's a good idea (not need passport etc)

But search thoroughly first - no point re=inventing the wheel!

Yea, this surprised me as well.  I will let you write it!  

Needs to explain more about kanji, katakana for foreign names. Link to WP articles on japanese alphabet etc.

Those are linked to WP, aren't they? ([[User t
