Talk:Sakoku Edict of 1635

message: Thanks for your good work on this article - though much of the material duplicates that already at Sakoku and other pages. I'm a bit concerned, however, about the title of this article. I'm currently in the middle of doing research for my MA dissertation on sakoku-related topics, and I have never come across the term "Closed Country Edict". Every source I have seen has referred to this, along with the other shogunal edicts of the time, as sakoku-rei, Sakoku Edicts, kaikin, or "Seclusion Edicts". Personally, I'm no big fan of the terms "sakoku" and "Seclusion" as they do not accurately describe the foreign policy of the shogunate, and imply a far more closed and isolated situation than was actually in place. Nevertheless, I do not think that it is our place on Wikipedia to be inventing terms which are not widely used or recognized in academia. That would be original research, right? LordAmeth 08:25, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the most common terms I've seen to refer to this are sakoku-rei, Sakoku Edicts, kaikin, or "Seclusion Edicts", but on the other hand, all those terms refer to a grouping of edicts, a series of policies rather than a single one. If we can figure out the official Japanese name for the 1635 edict, we can translate that, or romanize it. Does your textbook happen to indicate the Japanese name for the edict? LordAmeth 10:03, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I checked my textbook, and they made no mention of a specific name for the edict, let alone any mention of Sakoku. I tried looking at other websites in hopes of finding something of any use, and I found that Sakoku does translate directly to "closed country". However, this doesn't really help at all, and serves to define all of the edicts involved in Japanese seclusion, not any specific one. After looking at a few sources, the only way the edicts seem to be  distinguished are by their year, not by any specific name. Please let me know if you find a specific name for the edict, and in the mean time I'll take a look and see if I can find anything :) --Blurose1111 00:05, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hm. I checked the Japanese wikipedia article on :ja:鎖国 (sakoku), and it simply lists the 1635 edicts as "3rd Sakoku Edicts" (第3次鎖国令). I'll contunue to look around, see what I can find, but I think the best thing might simply be to rename the article "Sakoku Edict of 1635" - 'Closed Country' feels like overtranslation to me.

Talk:Tiocfaidh ár lá

message: I don't see the point of quibbling over the precise spellings such as "chucky air law", "chucky are la", etc; which is most accurate depends on both your Irish accent and your English accent; that's too many variables to control.  WP:PRON says to avoid pronunciation spellings in any case. The transcription  is in accordance with the Irish phonology article.  If you want to add separate transcriptions for Ulster Irish, Munster Irish, and Connacht Irish, go ahead.   However, adding English-spelling approximations, as a guide for Wikipedia users who don't understand IPA, is a lot trickier.  "Chucky air law" is pretty accurate when said a Belfast-English accent, but unhelpful if not misleading for someone who doesn't know what a Belfast accent sounds like.  The best reason to add pronunciation spellings is if they are widespread enough in their own right to be of encyclopedic interest.  "Chucky" on its own is so, and I have added a reference for this.  A side-effect is that it helps approximate the most impenetrable (for English speakers) part of the phrase.  I suggest there is no benefit in debating over approximations of "ár lá", none of which is canonical: none gets more than a dozen google hits. jnestorius(talk) 15:12, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I rearranged the first paragraph so that it can stand alone as a stub with its two citations, one of which is from IRNA ... since this is also an Iranian State Ministry, I'm not sure if that represents a WP:COI issue, but "I'm here to repair it, not to defend it." :-)
I also either removed or commented out the links that violated WP:EL, and added a  ... now that I've left these comments, I can go back and do the Final Slash, leaving just the first paragraph as a stub ...

Talk:Jeremy Allison

message: There was a lot of talk about Allison when he resigned from Novell a few months ago. Back then, I noticed that he had no wikipedia entry. There was another article on Slashdot today that reminded me to check, and since the page was still not there, I added it. Unfortunately, I do not know the guy personally (even if he worked at HP for a while), and he seems to be a bit elusive (no public bio or resume that I could find). I could not even find when HP hired him. So I leave the article in "stub" state, hoping that folks with better knowledge will fill the gaps. I'll send him e-mail, suggesting to add some data to it.

Talk:Ranger of Windsor Great Park

message: As well as missing the early rangers and a few others, this list seems to have been somewhat in error. The Duchess of Marlborough was succeeded by her grandson, the father of the 1st Earl Spencer. The 1st Earl was Ranger of the Home Park only, after his father's death. I don't know where the 5th Duke of Marlborough comes in. William IV considered giving the Rangership to the Duke of Sussex, but never did. It was Princess Helena's husband, Prince Christian, who was Ranger, not the lady herself. Lord FitzAlan lived at Cumberland Lodge, but was never appointed Ranger.
