replies: text: Depending on the media coverage, it may very well be worth mentioning. However, it should have no more than a sentence or two at most. Anything else can be added to the Logan Paul article. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 23:41, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

text: I don't think Logan Paul uploading a video is relevant to this article. I get that he's famous and all, but does it really need to be included? —General534 (talk) 03:18, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: It received a lot of media coverage, so it deserves a small mention. I think the current mention is sufficient, though Ryk72 may trim it even more, based on his comments. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 07:05, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

text: Considering the amount of media coverage from many major news sites, I think it's worth at least a 2-3 sentence mention on the page (perhaps in a different section in the future though?) Masterfireheart (talk) 12:09, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 4 January 2018 

message: I know there are other places to look up pronunciations of historic Japanese landmarks - in fact, I already did watch the pronunciation on Youtube. For the completeness of Wikipedia, can someone please record themself saying "Aokigahara" and then upload it? There are people on Wikipedia eager to help you record and make an .oga file and get it posted. You can even message me, but I suggest clicking "Community portal" on the left menu for ultra-fast help. Thanks. Fluoborate (talk) 20:57, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

message: Please add at the end of the lead "The forest became known around the world in after Logan Paul visited and the subsequent controversy after he apologized in his YouTube video titled "So Sorry." after a dead body was filmed. Most of the world of unaware of this forest before Logan Paul brought attention to it." 2600:8804:1980:CF20:CD27:382F:72C3:984B (talk) 08:18, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: Jonesey95, here are some references  Most of the world was not aware of this forest before Logan Paul's near-career killing stunt. 2600:8804:1980:CF20:B143:4EB7:EDA8:D829 (talk) 09:42, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Neither source mentions this forest by name. If there are better sources, post them here. We can put a short note in the "in popular culture" section. – Jonesey95 (talk) 11:35, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I would be opposed to such a change, as it would give WP:UNDUE weight to a single incident (note that it is mentioned in the subarticle). Wikipedia is not beholden to the obsessions of Youtube viewers, and it's blatantly ignorant to claim the world didn't known of the forest before he made a video about it. If the IP editor manages to find any references, they're also going to need to establish consensus for the change. Opencooper (talk) 01:04, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 18 February 2019 

message: I request a removal of the claim that ubasute was practiced at Aokigahara. In the reference material (a podcast), the non-Japanese host makes a claim that "ubasute-yama" was practiced at the site, without providing reference or evidence. "Ubasute-yama" literally means "Mt. Ubasute": the host's claim doesn't even make sense in Japanese. 
Wikipedia's own ubasute page, linked in this article, discusses this. 2603:8000:D800:A1A9:CD3C:C37A:35B4:8D12 (talk) 23:04, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
