message: Can somebody check the legitimacy of citation in note 105, which refers to:  Heale, M.J. (April 2009). "Anatomy of a Scare: Yellow Peril Politics in America, 1980–1993". Journal of American Studies. Ronald Reagan has nothing to do with this page's topic, unless there is a precise reference to it, which I am unable to ascertain.Carlotm (talk) 21:33, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

message: The article includes an unsourced statement:
However, there are quite a few sources that mention the canal being blockaded:
"Less than a week out of port, the Russian fleet decided to fire on some British fisherman, near Dogger Bank, who they mistook as Japanese torpedo boats. The British government was understandably incensed and retaliated by closing the Suez Canal to the Russian Fleet." cite
Another:
"The incident almost led to war between Russia and Great Britain.  Although it did not, Britain denied Russia access to the Suez Canal, forcing the fleet to sail around Africa, adding thousands of miles to the journey."cite
I also have a Time-Life history book that states the same thing. Thoughts? --Light show (talk) 09:44, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: It depends. There were ships that did not go through, and instead headed around Africa in November 1904. But it appears the UK let other Russian ships through between November and December of 1904. And then again, a new wave around March 25, 1905. This is according to a graphic which I do not have the source to.Asa3432 (talk) 07:35, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

message: Just adding here that the reference in question, though it is primarily about WW1, does list the figures stated in this article for the Russo-Japanese War, as shown by this scan: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.%24b744277;skin=2021;sz=25;q1=russo;start=1;sort=seq;page=search;seq=30;num=6 Loafiewa (talk) 21:08, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Infobox strength reference 

message: I believe that this issue has to be addressed once again. Not only because it is a historical fact that keeps being removed for whatever reason, but also because of the fact that several other Wikipedias, namely the Russian one, do list Montenegro as a combatant country in this particular war. It's far from being a national myth, since there is numerous documentation of soldiers being sent to Manchuria from Montenegro to fight the Japanese. The issue is very much treated as a lecture in all history curriculums in Montenegro, so treating it as a pure fallacy doesn't seem to be correct. There also seems to be the argument of volunteers, from other countries that have partaken in this war, but in the case of Montenegro, a proper declaration of war took place.
Having read the archived discussions, it seems to be that the non-inclusion of Montenegro might also be because of someone attempting to push their own narrative. I for one do not see any harm in listing it as a combatant country. The more details this article can provide to the reader, the better.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.140.150.140 (talk) 11:43, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: @79.140.150.140 Montenegro declared war on Japan, thereby expressing its gratitude for Russia's achievement of the country's independence through its diplomatic efforts following the results of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. Nevertheless, due to its remoteness, Montenegro was unable to provide significant assistance to Russia, and its efforts were limited to those Montenegrins who served in the Russian armed forces. At the conclusion of peace, Montenegro was forgotten, and formally it was at war with Japan until 2006. Bishop1776 (talk) 08:31, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

message: It says the kingdom Montenegro joined the war but when the war was going on Montenegro didn’t proclaim a kingdom yet so wouldn’t it be the principality of Montenegro 2A02:C7C:AC6B:D000:8D5:1799:2CBD:3098 (talk) 11:07, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
