replies: text: I would say "cite a professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic source for your claim," but your other posts seem to indicate that you seem to be obsessed with some ideas of racial purity that Wikipedia policy doesn't support.

text: I think the word you're looking for is "correct", not "collect". They mean two completely different things. Regardless of that, your comments make no sense. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 08:07, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

by this Chinese emperor came to Japan. please collect. and please point out the Japanese emperor's existence. Yuriko Tanabe (talk) 06:21, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

Outside of that, I don't have any idea what you are talking about as your comments make no sense. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 08:09, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

message: The beginning of the family section begins with the line "Satow was never able, as a diplomat serving in Japan, to marry his Japanese common-law wife, Takeda Kane 武田兼 (1853–1932) whom he met at an unknown date." This statement has no citation or further context to clarify what it is actually trying to say. How can one not be wedded to their common-law spouse? Was it that the marriage was unrecognised by the British and/or Japanese governments? Was it that they never had a religious ceremony to officiate the wedding? If anybody can help clarify I would be quite grateful.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Canodae (talk • contribs) 17:25, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
