Talk:Nobuhiro Watsuki

message: I'm not sure crunchyroll is the best source. Can we get any more reputable news sites reporting on this? Crunchy cites http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/national/20171121-OYT1T50067.html so if we could get a rough translation of this article from Japanese it could be helpful.

replies: text: I guess I sort of understand where you’re coming from. Alright, whatever. But still, I think it should definitely be added to the lead at some point, if not now then at least later on when more information on the situation is revealed. TheDisneyGamer (talk) 06:03, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

text: I do not agree with the interpretation of policy being forwarded here. WP:LEAD:  The entire point of the lead is to repeat important parts of articles. Feeling skeptical about motive for wanting the crime to not be in lead. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 21:26, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

text: Thank you for clarifying about the duplication. In future, if you have concerns please bring them up with other editors on their talk page rather than just accusing fellow editors of sockpuppetry. Remember to assume good faith.  17:40, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Better source needed for 2017 arrest

message: Watsuki's 2017 charges have nothing to do with Rurouni Kenshin other than halting it as a consequence for his crimes. The arrest info should be moved to "Personal Life." lullabying (talk) 19:28, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The series was put on hiatus in addition to the crime happening as his workplace. 76.5.98.176 (talk) 04:47, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Move 2017 arrest info to "Personal Life"

message: Please let's drop the edit war to reach a consensus about the organization of this article.Tintor2 (talk) 13:57, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: As previously mentioned, I don't believe his arrest information should be included with his career. It has nothing to do with his career -- his works were impacted because of his arrest, but the reasons for his arrest were a personal matter. lullabying (talk) 05:50, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: His works going hiatus was affected by his arrest but was not the cause of it. Clearly we need to vote regarding whether to separate his arrest from his career. , please give your rationale. lullabying (talk) 03:48, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit war 

message: There appears to be an attempt to whitewash the child pornography charges. There is no personal section, where this should be, but it's included in his career. I would advocate that the section head remain; without it, it gets buried at the end of a wall of text regarding the minutiae of his work history. I also note the consensus above which states it should be in a subsection. Ifnord (talk) 13:06, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Please see WP:OTHERCONTENT, we discuss an article on its merits alone and not compare to others. Consensus, not vote counting, was that the information should belong under a section head. Ifnord (talk) 23:26, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: We do not call the situation consensus when no reasonable reason to change the current version has been given and a lot of points suggest the current version is better. You even ignored all the points I summarized and you still keep editing without any discussion. You failed to Wikipedia:Assume good faith and ignored Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle and you are ignoring the quality of article and just trying to rush to your personally desired editing.--イケメン大富豪 (talk) 15:14, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Years late, but the user you are replying to (OP) was perfectly respectful and reasonable. They said "there appears to be an attempt"; this is a perfectly reasonable statement and a valid concern for controversial pages. They are not saying "there is definitely an attempt". If anything, statements you made appear to be in bad faith, including "you failed to", "you are ignoring ... and just trying to rush to your personally desired editing". 104.232.119.107 (talk) 20:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

text: Also as a heads up to other readers, this user was blocked from the Japanese Wikipedia. I would not take their comments to heart. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 20:45, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Whitewashing child pornographjy charges 

message: I read the earlier closed discussion, and while I like that the "Career" section is broken into two parts for readability, I still feel that the non-career aspect of his crimes are important. Like, keeping that subheading in "career" is fine, but certain personal stuff, like him admitting an attraction to elementary and secondary school girls, or how his fine has been reacted to by japanese shounen jump fans (NOT just western fanbases) and how his mentored now-friends didn't really react could be in the "personal life" section too. 
I just think that "early life" is kind of restrictive whereas with "personal life" we could continue to add on when it comes to the human aspect of his situation. AnotherToast (talk) 08:42, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Renaming "early life" to "personal life" and including part of the child pornography stuff there 

message: He was fined money for having teen modeling videos of underage girls in private residences, it had nothing to do with pornography.
The law was created in 2014 to match up with the rest of the worlds child protection laws.
It's common knowledge girls there above the age of 12 used to be in model videos. They're considered pornography because the girls are teens and they are enticing, it has nothing to do with what Americans think of pornographic material, it's closer to swim wear advertising.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.80.64.41 (talk) 23:21, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  The arrest section should be removed 

message: who cares if it was only a fine, it was a RIDICULOUS amount of CP. It's been off the page for like 6 months. 2600:6C67:4A3F:6864:4418:171:317F:2598 (talk) 18:33, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The information about the arrest is still on the page as a subsection of the career section. Link20XX (talk) 18:36, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Why is it not in the lead? WP:LEAD:  Given how serious of a controversy this is, I feel like it should be mentioned in the lead. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 21:28, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Currently it has one sentence in the lead, and I think that's appropriate. The arrest is a fairly significant part of the article's career section and WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY says the lead should contain a short summary of the major points of the body of the article. That being said, I think the lead paragraph is too long and either should be shortened or split into two paragraphs. Link20XX (talk) 20:41, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed with both assessments. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 20:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I made some WP:BOLD changes to the lead. If you have any issues with them, feel free to post them here. Link20XX (talk) 21:00, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Changes look good, thanks. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 21:01, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
