thread_title:  Neutrality Discussion 

message: I could really use some help with this page.  I know quite a bit about this guy, but I'm something of a Wiki newb.  Please add images and some more background text and we can bring this up to featured article status in no time!  --circuitloss 21:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Additions?

message: I've tried not to delete too much of the origional text out of respect for other Wikipedians.  However, the first version of this page was a cut and paste job from http://alessandro-valignano.biography.ms/
Is this plagerism?  I don't really know, but I have removed much of the first version.  The only extant line should be the first lead-in paragraph.  I can rewrite this too if neccessary. --circuitloss 18:57, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The page you are mentioning actually takes its content from Wikipedia (please read at the bottom of that page "Content from Wikipedia under GDFL"). Anybody is free to re-use Wikipedia content. So you certainly don't have to delete the original content in this article (please) :-) Regards PHG 22:09, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, sorry about that.  I didn't know which came from which.  I think that we've come to a pretty good balance with this article.  I'd like more about what he did before he came to Japan and in between his visits. (I think he visited other missions and was an administrator in Macao)  I mainly know about thej Japanese mission. --circuitloss 23:44, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Article creator plagerized? --Nope!

message: I'd like to bring this article up to "featured" status.  Please make any edits or make suggestions that you think would help improve this piece to that point.  I can do an RFC as soon as any contributors are satisfied that this is close to perfect.  Should we footnote everything?  --circuitloss 02:51, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Featured Article

message: This is about tag cleanup.  As all of the tags are more than a year old, there is no current discussion relating to them, and there is a great deal of editing done since the tags were placed, they will be removed.  This is not a judgement of content.  If there is cause to re-tag, then that of course may be done, with the necessary posting of a discussion as to why, and what improvements could be made.  This is only an effort to clean out old tags, and permit them to be updated with current issues if warranted.Jjdon (talk) 18:50, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
