Talk:Gion Matsuri

message: I believe the usage of the term "Yoiyama" was incorrect. I have fixed it. The parade is called the Yama-boko Junko. The eve of the parade is called "Yoiyama". I have added the kanji orthography for the relevant terms.
Also, with regards to the byoubu matsuri, in most cases it is only the genkan, or entryway that is open to the public. In the cases where more of a house is opened is it usually not a private house, but a business or gallery. - CIK
The pictures for this matsuri are terrible.  Does anyone have better work?  211.116.89.153 15:25, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just FYI, members the local community who put on the Gion Festival (including the yamaboko junko) regularly object to the use of the word "parade" in English, preferring "procession" to point to the ritual purpose. AkasaCatherine (talk) 02:49, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Yoiyama

message: It seems likely to me that the references to halberds most likely specifically refer to naginatas, based on a couple of factors.  1. The word "naginata" (長刀) appears frequently throughout the Japanese page, though usually in the context of "Naginata-boko" (長刀鉾).  However, merely the fact that it's integral in the name of that float seems to indicate that the "halberd" in question is a naginata.  2. I know of no class of polearm that was native to Japan and likely to be in use in 869 other than the naginata, bisento, or perhaps the Chinese ji.  Because of these, I think it would be appropriate to link to the page for naginata if we don't call it that outright in the article.  If some of the weapons in question are not, in fact, naginatas, then we ought to determine the actual range of implements that we mean to imply by "halberds".  I know that at least one of them is a naginata based on an  on the Japanese page.  Tsunomaru (talk) 16:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Harae

message: This information was deleted in favor of a redirect to this article. I am posting it here in case anyone wants to add it into this article with some sourcing. 
Ohari is a ceremony performed by Shinto priests in Japan. It includes the waving of a branch from a sacred sakaki tree, to which are attached white streamers (the Japanese version of the shaman's medicine fan of feathers or the Hindu yak-tail whisk, all used to sweep through the air and purify an area). This ceremony is performed on cars and new buildings. A version used to soothe a kami (god) that is upset by impurity was called for in 1978 when there was a rash of suicides by residents jumping off roofs in a Tokyo housing complex.

Talk:Sylvia Hotel

message: Don't know where else to put this, but in the '760s the old Anglesea Lodge was torn down; it was on the other side of Beach Avenue maybe another block towards Stanley Park from the Sylvia.  There used to be a number of these - built on piers over the beach, I guess they must have been, or on jetties of some kind, including one or two down towards Sunset Beach; the Anglesea was the very last.  I've seen the occasional pic in the VPL Photo Archives, but only in their books of photo prints at the main library, not in the online collection.  List of residential hotels in Vancouver's West End strikes me as a potential idea, though much research is needed; the Queen Charlotte and the Buchan come to mind immediately, but there were others, including the Sylvia and the Anglesea and their other sisters along English Bay.....Skookum1 (talk) 14:04, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: @Jarble In order. I don't think being a subject of a film adaptatin is a sufficient criteria to make the work notable (see WP:NBOOK, WP:GNG). However, I expect we can find sources covering this work and showing it has stand-alone notability - but until this is done so, the purpose of  is to indicate that the article is not making the case for why this work is notable well enough. An easy partial fix would be to mention the film adaptation in the lead, but what we need is more - information on awards, or literary criticism and reception this work received. In conclusion, neither me nor the tag are saying the subject is not notable, only that the current article needs to make it more clear.

message: "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.  The Transhumanist 00:09, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Asellus (SaGa Frontier character)

message: I've re-written the section on Asellus's sexuality and relationships after a few edits were made regarding some of the sources used, and that they conflicted over whether or not further details regarding Asellus and White Rose's relationship were censored out of the Japanese version of the game.  I've noted the source conflict, as is the suggested course of action to take according to Wikipedia's "reliable sources" policies.  
Regarding the IMDb source, the information it states regarding the censorship in question it isn't necessarily nullified because it mentions a non-existant U.K. translation; it could simply be referring to the singular English translation released in the U.S., as English-speaking European gamers often import or buy second-hand US-released games that aren't released in their countries.  I've noticed that IMDb is used frequently as a reliable source in Wikipedia articles, so I would like to keep the source intact, with a mention of its conflict with the Gamefaqs source.
