Talk:Reimy

message: Yet to be researched for documentation are Reimy's voice type, soundtrack projects applicable to films released in the United States, TV appearances and similar. - B.C.Schmerker 05:11, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Overall

message: Mention is made on ja.Wikipedia.org/wiki/麗美 of two appearances on the Children's Television Workshop series Square One Television, spec. episodes that originally aired September 20 1988 and October 25 1988, according to the rough data on ja.Wikipedia.org.  Could someone verify the actual Episode numbers?  (All CTW TV series have their episodes numbered in sequence, a practice with precedent from 1969 on Sesame Street.) - B.C.Schmerker 11:40, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Television appearances 

message: It appears as though the source article itself leaves much to be desired.  The following passage actually appears in the article:Based on my own limited knowledge of the Japanese language's grammar and known facts about the persons concerned, I estimate that it should have been:I have found that   Matsutoya is a three-character surname—as far as I'm aware, these started under the Tokugawa Shogunate with the surnaming of certain lords as Matsudaira; similar origins for other three-character surnames are doubtless documented.
I have also found an idiom in the Top paragraph of the original article that I need an expert in Japanese to clarify:  偶然関係者の目にとまり (lit. "fortunately to stop in the eye of the person(s) concerned"). - B.C.Schmerker 14:11, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: 元クラリオンガールの姉が持っていた is correct. "In the possession of a (elder) sister who was a Clarion Girl..." What's more in question ? 130.54.130.227 (talk) 07:34, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: 元クラリオンガール is an "ex-Clarion Girl", so "a picture posessed by her elder sister Mayumi, an ex-Clarion Girl was by chance caught ..." is better. --Maxima m (talk) 13:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Syntax issue, source material 

message: Request clarification concerning spam blacklisting of http://www012.upp.so-net.ne.jp/june/ —an external link for this article referencing a fan site. - B.C.Schmerker 14:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Technical issues

message: From Tom Kishida (The Yasukuni Swords, Kodansha, 2004), I found that the correct pronunciation of 卌年 in 昭和卌年一月六日 is actually yonjūnen rather than yonjūwan (a flaw in the current Rikaichan dictionary). - B.C.Schmerker 05:10, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Who used such obsolete kanjis? It is definitely a kidding. I understand the character, but they've never used after WW2, though documents of Meiji period carry them. --Maxima m (talk) 13:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Transliteration of date codes 

message: The translation has reached a point where a comprehensive set of data is needed in terms of record companies and catalog numbers, chart positions in Japan and (where applicable) elsewhere, RIAJ certifications, &c. for Reimy's albums and singles. - B.C.Schmerker 06:46, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Update:  Release dates are done for most albums and singles; catalog numbers are still needed.  Excepting Speed of Light (song), most releases don't qualify for their own Articles due to lack of online data in English (see also Wikipedia:Notability (music)). - B. C. Schmerker (talk) 09:22, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Update2: Glossary of Japanese acronyms applicable to Musician-Article stats is also needed. B. C. Schmerker (talk) 08:10, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicians|Musician article]] needs attention

message: The acronym "CM" appears in numerous Musician articles on the Japanese Wikipedia.  What does it represent? B. C. Schmerker (talk) 03:49, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: "CM" is a Japanese, acronimmed from "commercial message", referring to television advertisements. It is pronounced as literally "she-em", and equivalent to "コマーシャル (commercial)". "After CM, our diva is coming! (CMのあと、あの歌姫の登場です)" Ah, how terrible when seen or heard in English these usages are. Have you found so many? I have poor knowledge of Japanese singers' article in ENWP. --Maxima m (talk) 03:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: If your view of "CM" is accurate, I can use "Television-advertising credits" for the English translation.  Celebrity musicians do ads here in the United States, so there are parallels; I just have to figure out a way to confirm the alleged advertisements in order to satisfy notability requirements.  B. C.
