Talk:Mainichi Shimbun

message: Exactly what is "Mainichi" mentioned twice in the article - I suppose it's the publishing company; I feel it should be introduced as a separate entity or else just called "Mainichi Shinbun". --Schnolle 05:24, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Comment

message: There is a man, Kennosuke Sato, who apparently worked for Mainichi Shimbun; the article claims he spoke English, and I've found an old article which quotes from his articles (in English), without mentioning whether the quotes were translated or not. Was the Shimbun publishing English language articles back in the 1930s and 1940s? --Gwern  (contribs) 16:02 7 November 2007 (GMT)

replies: text: That "Peculiar meta-keywords in website" would be original research, right? Still, at least one media outlet (Sankei's Yukan Fuji tabloid) has "reported" on it. --Julián Ortega - drop me a message 18:39, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not the place for such lists. You can provide a link to a website containing that list instead as a reference. --Julián Ortega - drop me a message 18:43, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Though I also think that those who dispose are him.
It is a thoughtless act to write disposal person's name by presumption here. 
Enough only in the official position.

thread_title: Julianortega　Edit

message: We'd better split WaiWai incident into a new page, entitled "Mainichi Daily News WaiWai scandal" for example. 
The problems existed in running a column for MDN Web site, not in editing the newspaper in Japanese or the extinct newspaper Mainichi Daily News. However, it's not clear whether "Mainichi" means the newspaper or the media company in the current article, which is now handling the both; and what is worse, even "Mainichi Daily News" is redirected to this article page. How confusing! 
We cannot but make a long section if we try to explain accurately this incident. To keep the proportion and clearly show it was a scandal on MDN Web site, we'd better split this incident into a new article created only for it. --Dumpty-Humpty (talk) 03:30, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Splitting WaiWai section into a new page

message: The text in this section reads as though it were written by someone who was part of the campaign against WaiWai or some editor at Mainichi trying to save face.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.81.244.215 (talk) 09:22, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, have edited for NPOV. RomaC (talk) 11:13, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: User:218.110.19.62 I'm assuming English is not your first language so can you please discuss here on the talk page before adding material. This is to keep the article grammatically correct. Also, loading up with excessive details can interfere with an explanation of the subject. What we could perhaps add now are secondary sources, other media's reporting on the controversy instead of more and more from the Mainichi. Cheers. RomaC (talk) 09:45, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is 1314 W. McDermott Dr, Allen (Dallas) Texas USA (Central Region) a part of Seibu Head Office (西部本社, Seibu Honsha)?

message: The link in the 'Website' section links to www.mainichi.co.jp
