Talk:Edward Yang

message: The category "Chinese film directors" is supposed to be for "mainland" directors. Since there's already a Taiwanese film directors cat. (which Hou is in), I've removed the category for "Chinese film director". Even though Yang was born in Shanghai, I think that he is consistantly seen as a "Taiwanese" director in that Taiwan cinema and Chinese (mainland) cinema can be seen as distinct entities.
: I don't recall the Wikipedia policy specifically noted that the category of "Chinese film directors" can only refer to mainland Chinese directors (and exclude Taiwanese film directors).  I think the category should be fine, since he was born in Shanghai, China. --67.2.149.153 06:40, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

message: "Japanification" is 日本化 in Japanese. Heroeswithmetaphors (talk) 07:27, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Japanification 日本化 is an inaccurate title. 哈日族 refers to Japanophiles, mainly Taiwanese, who have a good understanding of Japan. Many of them have travel experience. The Lost decade is not relevant here. Why not use Hārìzú? --Shinkansen Fan (talk) 13:16, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Change the title

message: In reliable sources, "Japanification" almost always refers to a country's economy becoming more like Japan's, which has been characterized by low/negative inflation and low economic growth. Just do a simple Google search, and you will get results like:
* Japanification: investors fear malaise is spreading globally, Financial Times: "Japanification, or Japanisation, is the term economists use to describe the country’s nearly 30-year battle against deflation and anaemic growth."
* What is Japanification?, The Week: "The term is used as shorthand for the economic problems that crippled Japan around the turn of the millennium."
* Worry Over the ‘Japanification’ of the U.S. Economy Is Overblown, Economists Say, Barron's: "Economists have been warning for years that the U.S. economy could start to look like Japan’s, using the term “Japanification” to describe that change."
* Why Japanification and Secular Stagnation Are Bad, Bad News, Bloomberg News: "It’s a term used by economists to describe a state of chronically anemic economic growth and feeble inflation or even deflation similar to the conditions faced by Japan since a giant real-estate bubble popped in the early 1990s."
* Here’s what a ‘Japanification’ of the U.S. would look like, Market Watch: "In financial markets, being like Japan isn’t a good thing — representing having few investment opportunities and nonexistent inflation."
By contrast, not a single result will yield anything resembling "the process of becoming or wishing to become a member of Japanese society", as this page defines it. In fact, not a single references listed on this page describes Japanification as anything like the definition provided! Only one reference (a journal on children's literature) even uses the term "Japanification", and it uses it to describe how American children's literature is becoming more Japanese in style. It is quite clear that this page should instead describe Japanification in the economic sense, as this is how it is used in reliable sources (furthermore, the usage to describe children's literature should be excluded for being WP:Undue). I will write up a new page for this, but it may take some time. Jaydavidmartin (talk) 05:14, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Edwin Bryant (Indologist)

message: :He graduated from Columbia University in 1997. 
Uh, with a BA in astronomy?  This information is useless unless it specifies the degree, and in what department he trained.  If he received a PhD it would be good to know whether he received distinction or not, and what his dissertation title was. 
:He lectured on Indology at Harvard University and at Rutgers University, New Jersey.
I am tempted to delete this.  Harvard has no department of "indology."  What department or institute was he in?  What was his rank and title?  How long was he there and why did he leave?  Where is he now?  Same for his Rutgers position.  This information is important.
Look, none of this is to disparage the guy.  If he got a PhD. from Columbia in Religion (or History or Anthropology) with distinction, we should know; if he was a full professor at Harvard in the Anthropology department, we should know.  But these sentences are just dropping prestigious-sounding names with no real meaning. Slrubenstein   |  Talk 18:32, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Edwin Jackson (baseball)

message: I've removed mentions and categories that state that Jackson is German because, well, he isn't German. He was the child of a member of the US military who happened to be born on a military base outside of the United States. However, that doesn't make him German. That makes him an American born on a military base in Germany. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:50, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

message: We've got three different athletes with the exact same name, but in 3 different sports.

I was endeavoring to convert the redirect page to a DAB page, when I discovered to my shock and astonishment that somebody had already moved the page back to its former name. Good grief, why would we not treat all 3 pages the same way, using the same naming convention for all 3 of them? Why would this even need discussion? Anomalous+0 (talk) 02:35, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Edwin Moses

message: His trademark technique was to take 13 steps between all the hurdles (or even 12 between some hurdles)
Would someone please confirm or document that Moses took some hurdles with 12 steps?  That would mean leading with his right leg, which seems pretty extraordinary even for someone as remarkable as Moses.  It would certainly have to be done on the back straight, and it's hard to imagine having the stamina do it at more than one hurdle in a race.  Mixing topics, I wouldn't be surprised if Usain Bolt could mix thirteen and eleven strides if he set his mind to it, although that much endurance training would likely sacrifice some top-end speed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Petershank (talk • contribs) 15:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Late response, but it is possible. Kevin Young also used 12 strides between hurdles sometimes. But after reading his page and watching 4 of Moses' races, I think you are right and that he only used 13 strides.

Talk:Strat-O-Matic

message: One point to make about Strat-O-Matic: It was a primary inspiration for the inventor of Magic: The Gathering, which spawned the even more popular Po-Ke-Mon card gamej, which is probably the most popular card game in history. I know this because the inventor, Richard Garfield, told me this years ago at a sales meeting, and has mentioned it many times in multiple interviews.
The advertisement for the Strat-o-Matic football game that appears in various football mags before each season is the EXACT same ad that has been running since I was a kid in the late 70s; really bizarre.  And it's written in such odd syntax, with such corny cliche's-- very weird.  I presume I'm not the only person that's noticed this.
:No, you're not...and the game's packaging and design has made only token changes in that time period as well. And some people wonder why these games are in decline... Thunderbunny 00:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

:I'm not the editor that has done the removals, but I support them whole heartedly.  Why?  Because when I spoke with one of the then current members of the board, Alison Jiear, I found that her involvement with Linda Christas had consisted of the following conversation:  "Do you want to be listed as a board member of our school?"  "Sure, why not".  Total length of involvement:  2 minutes, tops.  I can only assume that the other "board members" are listed for similar exchanges.
