Talk:Japanese-American service in World War II

message: :NISSEI is a post-rock/emo-influenced band from Vilassar de Mar, a village 12 km north Barcelona, Spain. It is composed by Cristian (voice, trompet and guitar), Alfons (drums) and Edu (bass). Its first Long Play was recorded out on 2004 and is called More Lights (CD/Bcore Ref.115). Who are their influences? This is a difficult question to answer, but bands like Fugazi, June of 44 or Karate influenced them on the early beginning of the band.
:They have done more than 70 shows in three years, sharing stages with bands like Aina, Karate, (lo:mueso), Hoover, The EX, Las Dolores, Margarita, Maple, Nueva Vulcano, Veracruz, Haymarket Riot, Le Search, 12twelve, The Joe K-Plan, Za, Sibyl Vane, Engine Down, Les Phillipes, Zein?, La Monja Enana, Standstill, A Room With A View, Autoa, Kids Go Free, Miyahi, Ximel, Weeping Minds Of Silence, It's Not Not, Tokyo Sex Destruction, Logh, Hedtrip, The Cheese, Apnea, Cocodrilo, Half Foot Outside, Sick Of Banality, Unfinished Sympathy, Miztura, Spokane, Red House Blues and many others.
Not notable enough. --Lincoln F. Stern 17:31, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Nisei?

message: Japanese American service in World War II is about the soldiers and airmen in the U.S. Army and U.S. Army Air Force -- it's about the "service" of the servicemen. For those of Japanese ancestry during WWII, only U.S. citizens were permitted in the Nisei units. As far as I can tell, the HongQiGong are, at best, in service of no clear purpose which enhances the quality of this article. In the context of the full array of these edits, I would seem to have little alternative but to consider further such edits as mere vandalism unless I learn otherwise by reading a plausible explanation posted here.

By all means, if I have simply misunderstood, I would have no hesitation in re-examinging my perception of the purpose and utility of these edits and future ones as well; but without more, and in the context of a difficult-to-fathom strategy which evolved across serial edits at Yonsei, what else is one to think? WP:AGF is a good beginning, but it's only a preferred starting point. --Tenmei (talk) 04:33, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: As I've explained in the edit summary, Nisei are not the only American-born Japanese. Nisei are simply children of Issei. Sansei, Yonsei, Gosei, etc, are also American-born Japanese. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 14:36, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

text: Two-thirds of the people unjustly imprisoned by the U.S. government during World War II were "nisei," U.S. citizens of Japanese descent who had been born in the United States. The accurate term for them is "Japanese American," rather than "Japanese." Their parents, the "issei," were immigrants who were forbidden by U.S. law from becoming naturalized American citizens. (Japanese immigrants were therefore forced to remain aliens until 1952 when the naturalization law was changed.) -- "Terminology and Glossary," Denshō, The Japanese American Legacy Project.
In the context of the 1st paragraph of this article, your edit is not intended to enhance quality; and for this reason, it is unhelpful. --Tenmei (talk) 15:18, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

text: I am not arguing that. Your edit implies that only the Nisei are defined as American-born Japanese. But the children of Nisei are not themselves called Nisei. The Nisei article supports my edit. You are creating a discrepancy here between the two articles. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 15:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: WWII American servicemen

message: Although the image would seem like an excellent choice for this article; however, the poor quality of the thumbnail version makes it awkward to interpret. I don't know how (or if) this reproduction problem can be ameliorated, but I'm posting it here in hopes that it might catch the attention of someone who understands how to address the obvious problems. --Tenmei (talk) 17:56, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

message: As I noted at Talk:Military Intelligence Service (United States), edits from various anon IPs have been inserting clumsily written and questionably sourced assertions of the MIS at both this article and Military Intelligence Service (United States). For now, since these edits promote a non-mainstream viewpoint, I'm going to isolate these edits in a separate subsection where they may be reviewed at some point in the future.—Myasuda (talk) 16:20, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
