Knowledge talk:WikiProject Japan/Mythology task force/Archive 1

3894:. I'm not sure if there's been any kind of official or unofficial inter-Wikiproject cooperation between our two projects, or if there's been any contact at all in the past, but I thought I'd come here anyways and say 'hi' and to say a little something about my project. WikiProject Missing Encyclopedic Articles' essentially goal is to help Knowledge become better than any other encyclopedia/major repository of information, by including articles on every topic in any other encyclopedia/major repository of information. A lot of the project focusses on things like the Encylopedia Brittanica, Columbia, Gutenberg authors, etc, but the section I thought might interest you guys is the 2754:

going to be visiting Tokyo, as well as Kyoto and, if I remember correctly, Osaka, and have therefore a great deal of opportunities to take alot of photos(as I've got a digital camera, so it's quite possible for me to take a number of decent pictures). And as I was going to take a lot of pictures anyway, as I don't like to trust my own mind at these things, and I prefer to reserve it for my brainpower, it's not too big a burden for me to get some pictures taken. So if there is any sites or places for me to take pictures of, especially if they are specifically related to this, don't hesitate to list them here, as I'd more than happily take some extra pictures.

3068:. I've since gotten to know Lord Capulet some. I think the guy really does believe in making sure Shinto and Japanese mythology are recognized. In a religion that has fewer and fewer notable figures as time goes on, I think we ought to recognize some of Shinto's biggest supporters in today's world, and, I've come to the conclusion that Lord Capulet might actually be one of them. I think that we should keep the article on him. I'm on the same page as you guys, I've put a lot of work into increasing Shinto-related knowledge on Knowledge, I wouldn't want a joke page involved with it either, but Lord Capulet's no joke, so I'm fine with it staying. - 2833:

you should make sure. Basically, just use common sense, but you can look for: 写真 (photograph) and this:　止 (stop, or "no".) If these are written somewhere (there'll most likely be other kanji as well, but look for those) you probably can't take pictures. Or, if someone's around, just hold up your camera and ask "OK?". Although most Japanese people would never confront you about it, they do get irritated, and those of us who live here bear the brunt of their irritation. ;-) (I say this because I once took a picture of a car being blessed at a Shinto shrine, and my Japanese friend who was with me was horrified...)

2234:

editors a chance to make sure the task is done. For complicated things, like the category stuff, it would be easy to miss something, so having the finished task in a conspicous place may serve some purpose other than the simple satisfaction of having something crossed out on a list. We could do it this way - strike out and add the announcement to the News and Annoucement section. Then a week later delete entirely from the to-do list. That way we still don't have to archive the To-Do list.

4252:

have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at

91: 67: 398: 2823:

Osaka and Tokyo are very modern cities, but they both have their traditional places if you know where to go. If you can't get to Kamakura, the best place to go in Tokyo is Asakusa, which is very traditional and also right in the middle of the city, whereas Kamakura is about an hour's train trip. The Emperor's palace and its gardens (there are some that have been opened to the public) are also good. Have a good trip!

236: 3295: 36: 3536:

Culture" section of the article, just to distinquish it from traditional folklore. I only have a problem with anime references when the article is just a few sentences on the folktale, and then two screens of anime references; the folklore should be the main focus of the article. But the single anime reference on the tsukumogami article seems fine to me; like you said, it adds information, so why not?

3191: 185: 3244: 3140: 3898:. It began with a list of 17,346 articles, and it's now down to 7,678 (56% done). It includes all types of mythology, including a fair bit of Japanese. I bet if we got some input from you guys, who actually know something about mythology, we could make a serious dent in what's left. If you're interested, check out the project page, drop me a line, or just start contributing. Thanks! -- 101: 3505:—a manga/anime creator. At any rate, the idea that an idea like this can be held to be absolutely true is ludicrous. Folklore and mythology are fluid in nature, so the beliefs about monster X in one place will not match those in another. Any "rules" are especially breakable in anime and manga. That said, I don't particularly care for anime/manga examples, either. ;P — 1256:, just so we can compare the two and come to a decision regarding which is better. The advantage of the current vertical, right-justified version is that we can fit much more information and links in that style. If we decide to go with a horizontal version, we will need to condense the information a bit. This may not be a bad thing. Ideas? Suggestions? 3064:, Lord Capulet began making posts about Shinto and how he wishes it was a more commonly accepted religion. I searched some on Google and I realized the guy has actually made a pretty big impact on the Internet (involvement in lots of sites, several of which he helped create) so I checked Knowledge, and sure enough, there was an article on him by 2164:

week of a month, but only for the CURRENT month. So the current month will have its archive links seperated into seperate weeks in the archive box, but other months will only be listed by month. Hopefully this will make things easy to browse, while not making the box too cluttered. OK? We can change it if it seems like too much trouble.

2810:. (Actually, I notice that a lot of these are licensed under Creative Commons 2.0 and could therefore be uploaded to Commons already). Also keep an eye out for mythology-related statuettes, tourist items, etc. Some of these would be nice illustrations for articles. Sounds like fun! Have a good time in Japan! — 2305:(Thoght I'd start this discussion in a new section in preparation for archiving most of the rest of this talk page.) So, what do we want the stub to say? What should the image be? As for the latter, it should be something simple, and therefore easily seen at small sizes. Any of these images would be cool: 1401:. Hopefully Mitsu will take a look, because he knows more about templates than I do. All I can do is cut and paste and change colors from other templates. Which reminds me, we should decide on a color scheme for the templates...it will keep them looking standardized once we have three different versions. 3635:

Probably not, although I couldn't say for sure without the reading cards. Normally, the reading cards have a short verse or sentence that describes the situation depicted in the picture. The verses or sentences would probably have the name of the Obake in them, but the first word wouldn't neccesarily

2444:

image? I think it would look good if it was cut out on a white background. Not sure it would show up at a small size, but it might be worth a try. The Ebisu image looks good, too. But I'd like to see the fox image on a white background and at a small size before I vote. If no one has done that by the

2233:

I like the idea of archiving the to-do box along with the News and Announcements, but I'd like to keep the striked items up as well, for a certain amount of time. Mainly because there is something quite satisfying about having that crossed-off task on there for a bit. ;-) But also, it will give other

1123:

and I talked about this a few days ago regarding these roles. At the time, I had mentioned that we'd come to some sort of agreement with the Shinto project on this; I've since found out that there's no formal Shinto project (well, nothing other than some dedicated adherents on the Shinto talk page),

585:

Looking at the Norse mythology template, I can see what you mean. Too many additions and it will get way out of hand. Maybe we should think about having just a horizontal infobox at the bottom. I personally think the right-justified one looks good on pages...it's prominent and it's useful, but I take

2928:

Looks like the devil when it's made smaller. Not a problem for me, but could be confusing for the random user. I prefer the new fox to the new oni. But we all know of my thing for foxes...since you've probably done the most work on the stub template, why don't you just pick one? The time limit is up

472:, and it just looks too distracting as a sidebar-style thing. Besides, aren't there thousands of kami? How will the infobox ever be able to display them all? If it stays, it should probably be a horizontal template that goes along the bottom of the article. That'd make it less obtrusive. Thoughts? — 4102:

Also from the same edit is the notion of subterranean lodges constructed for zashiki-warashi. I wouldn't be in the least surprised if the Japanese actually did something like this, but until I see some proof I'm still weary of this particular bit of info, and will probably kick it out in some time.

4086:

I rehashed these two articles with some help from the Japanese versions. I was mostly looking to give them a more serious, less anime-y feel. Take a look and tell me what you think. Also, can anybody find a decent picture of a zashiki-warashi? I'm not particularly happy with the stereotypical manga

4029:

I've been doing some minor editing and stuff around wiki Japan-related sites for a while now, but now I've got myself a username. I added myself to the project - I'm not really an expert, but I'm interested in Japanese folklore, and I speak fluent Japanese, so I hope to be able to help out here and

3621:

Okay, perhaps not. I've identified 1-08 (chochinobake, chi -- the "cho" is written "chi(subscript yo)" in kana, so this would fit the theory) and 1-02 (rokurokebi, ro), in addition to the previously-IDed 2-04 (tanuki, ta), but the theory seems to fall apart with 1-12 (kana wo, but it looks like it

3473:

The issue at hand is that he says it is impossible for the character to be a tsukumogami, as the automaton ran on electricity, and electricity repells yokai. This is the first I have ever heard of this information (not much electricity - other than lightning and static - going on back in pre-Meiji

3420:

is definitely on my to-do list, but without good sources, I feel like I'm kind of up a creek. It seems that most Japanese mythology articles are sourced with webpages, and such articles have come under round criticism in FAC lately. But I have no problem with a collaboration, though I can't promise

2556:

Not bad! But I think a photographic megatama would be better; the pop-art vibe seems to be more appropriate for something like WikiProject Anime than for us, methinks. My favorites are the oni netsuke, Fujin, and Yebisu. The oni netsuke would be better in color (a painted Noh mask like the one Mike

2223:

I just thought of something else. Rather than strike items from the to-do list and leaving them there for a while, here's my proposed procedure for when something on to-do gets done: 1) Remove the item completely from the to-do list. No strike-through. 2) Add a note to "News and announcements" that

2163:

I added an archive box to the News and Announcements section on the project page. Basically, I figure we archive about once a week (if needed), but put all the archives for a single month into a single archive page, seperating them into weeks by sub-head. Then link to the specific sub-head for each

1445:

I actually had the same idea (I was specifically looking at the red from the Shinto portal) but the links don't show up well on top of it. If you can get the link issue worked, the red will get my vote as well. Also, do you have any idea why our current infobox won't allow pictures to be placed on

528:

One thing about the infobox that bugs me (it looks fine and isn't all that distracting to me) is that it pushes any right-justified pictures down below it. I don't know if there's anything that can be done about that, but it would be nice if right-justified pictures were simply lined up on the edge

3469:

character as an example of tsukumogami. The reason is that the character is an automaton that comes to life after 100 years of being shut down. While it's clear that he dislikes anime (and that's not the issue), I have rewritten things slightly to accomodate him without removing the reference (I

2832:

BTW, make sure you are allowed to take pictures before you take them. In Kyoto, Nara or Kamakura they are generally used to tourists, so it won't be a problem, but in smaller areas you should make sure. If it's just a statue or something in a public place, it's fine, but inside the smaller shrines

2753:

The main page here mentions that as Japan has a long artistic tradition, a lot of pictures, etc, are in the public domain, and many of the pages on Japanese mythology and folklore can benefit from this fact. Now, I am traveling to Japan at the end of this month, more specifically the 28th, and I'm

2623:

Mitsukai's magatama looks good, but I'm not sure that the random person knows what a magatama is, much less what they look like. I agree that the demon mask picture doesn't work because it can't be put on a background. Ebisu's okay (now that you said that about the garden gnome, though, it's all I

1492:

I definitely agree with that. The actual collection of links should be on a white background. Before, I meant the links in the header bars don't show up well on red. Just to mention it, I do like the way the hindu_small template has the category headers colored, though. It uses the colors in a way

1350:

Tried the infobox on the Kappa page, too, and やっぱり, the infobox goofed up the formatting. There's got to be a way to force it under the picture, but I can't figure out how. At any rate...one more thing, about the current infobox. I was trying to find some information on some of the dragons to stub

538:

That's just it. Right-justified infoboxes should have something to say about the article in question, not be general "Here are a bunch of related topics" call-outs. Like I said, I'd have no problem with a bottom infobox, as it would not be so prominently displayed in the article. And it would also

proposal for an appreciation week to end on Knowledge Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who

cleaned up a bit. The two main problems with it are lack of references, and a western bias. Someone specifically requested on the talk page that information be added on haunted locations in Japan. They said that "Japan is widely considered to be the most haunted place on earth" (I have no idea

3514:

I'm familiar with the Shigeru interview. However, I don't find the issue so alarming about the anime character (it's not from a series that I care about, truthfully), so much as the squelching of information and the concept that the concept is absolute, especially (as you note) with something as

3077:

Even in light of all that, I still think the article might not pass Knowledge's standards for notability. My main concern is, I couldn't verify anything other than the fact that Lord Capulet wrote a single story on International Idiocy, which would clearly make the article non-notable. If you can

2876:

Our stub proposal will be accepted tomorrow, so we can put up the template and start restubbing then. I think the general consesus on the picture is oni netsuko, although if we can find a color version it would be better. I suggest we go with the oni netsuko for now, and if something better comes

2842:

Oh, ok. Thanks a lot for the heads up. I'll see what I can do then. :) Also, on a secondary not, I was wondering if you guys might know if obake karuta are commonly found(I'm pretty sure there might be, but hey, asking never killed 'ya ;)), and if so, are there any specific places where(also, are

2822:

Nara's actually fairly far from Kyoto, but Brian's right, both are probably the best places in Japan for "Japanesy" pictures. Kamakura is also very good. But keep your camera on you all the time. There are small shrines virtually everywhere, and you never know when you'll get the perfect picture.

3434:

I was thinking more of a general improvement drive, not neccesarily to the level of a Featured Article, but just a collaboration to work some of the stubs into full article status. Also, I'm sure we're going find some stubs that will likely never be expanded, so we should come up with a grouping

1826:

I'm going through the creatures category and adding the Shinto kami cat. to some of the articles ('m through the "N"s now). Basically, I'm only adding the Shinto kami cat. when there is an obvious link to Shinto. Some of the ones I skipped could be considered kami as well, but I'll leave that to

1569:

Okay, I've got final versions (style-wise - the links still have to be worked out) of three different versions of our new "Nav"boxes. One is a small verticle navbox, one is a small horizontal navbox with a picture, and one (scroll to the bottom) is a huge navbox with no picture but with a "hide"

494:

Lastly, I've been working on a list of references; the problem is that most of them are in Japanese, and most of the ones that aren't are either Lafcadio Hearn books or translated manga. Still, I'm hoping to have something in the next few days, so if you've got anything, feel free to start that

488:

As for the template itself, I figured it was going to be transitional, and that we would eventually replace the names there with topical lists (again, look at an example of how the infobox used to look for what it was like). I think we could probably create supplemental horizontal boxes for the

3535:

Yeah, it seems kind of silly to build an arguement on something like "electricity repels Yokai". I think the way you distinquished it is fine, since there's only one pop culture reference at the moment. But if someone adds another one, I think they should probably be moved under a seperate "Pop

2887:

I just finished finding and tagging all the mythology- and folklore-related images on Commons (the Japanese stuff there is still far from well categorized, but I put a dent in it), so I'd like to propose a few other design ideas. In the meantime, I don'ty see anything wrong with putting the oni

2648:

I think the oni netsuke or oni mask would be the way to go. Fujin is a little hard to make out at the smaller size with all those sepia tones, unless you know what the image is meant to be. I like the fox, too (the full shot more than the head-only one), but I think the oni work a bit better.

4113:

Yyyyyeah... that sort of claim I'd want to see sourced. I think you did the right thing there. Both articles look pretty well improved to me. I'll see what I can do about other sources. As for the image, have you tried searching Japanese woodblock print images for one? Yokai were a fairly

2522:

Good picture, but you're right; the hair gets in the way. Basically my thought process was that I liked the oni netsuke version, but that it would be better if we had something similar but more colorful. Your mask photo would be perfect if the mask could be easily cut out and placed on a white

2177:

I usually go by the KB limit (once a talk page exceeds 30 KB, archive but keep any active discussions on the main talk page). At this stage, we're talking quite a bit since the project is still getting on its feet. Later, things might run quite smoothly and monthly archives won't be necessary.

1285:

I personally don't mind the vertical one, except for the issue with the page formatting being goofed up. But we can work around that by going through and fixing pages that need it. One thing I noticed, our infobox is quite wide compared to many other vertical infoboxes that I've seen, with the

3739:

1720:

Argh...navbox formatting is slightly wonky in Safari; they looked fine at work on IE. The top two boxes are okay (I think the vertical box actually looks better in Safari - picture is a little off-centered in the small horizontal box), but the large horizontal is screwed. There's obviously a

1053:

Agreed. I almost started adding {{Asia-myth-stub}} to a bunch of Shinto god and goddess articles then stopped myself. I'm not sure what the protocol is on labeling something a part of "mythology" when it's part of a living religion. My personal preference would have a category tree like

1290:. In fact, it might be a good idea to follow the example of the Hindu pages, which have a large, horizontal version and a small, vertical one, which are standardized with a common color scheme. That way page editors would have a choice, depending on how they want to format the article. 3113:

I just don't see enough evidence that this article is notable. Why don't we send it through the deletion process, and if there is evidence of Lord Capulet's notability, it will come out during the debate. We can send it through AfD, rather than prod, because there is some controversy.

2624:

can see...). I like Fujin and Oni netsuke (although it would be better in color... しょうがない). I like the fox, too, but I can't really tell how it looks to someone who didn't spend time working on the original. That's my 2-cents. In the end, whatever everyone else likes is okay by me.

3435:

system to redirect those into a single, full-length article. We have a lot of stubs under the project at the moment; I think a better way to go about these would be to start with a single, full-length article, and then break off articles from there when the sections become too large.

1812:

It's a bit complicated really, because often creatures in folklore are later incorporated into Shinto, thus receiving the title "kami." I mean, kami is a bit amorphous so a lot of things could be considered kami, depending on how wide you want to throw the net. But I'll take a look.

2782:

The comment about public domain is more aimed at the fact that you can pretty much swipe a scan of an old Japanese paintings from any old website and post them to Commons with no problem. But if you're going to Japan and want to do some footwork, I'd second Misukai's suggestion.

1570:

feature so users can hide it if it's in the way. We need to decide which of these to keep (or all of them), and then we need to decide how to break up the link categories in the various boxes (in the smaller versions, not all the information from the current infobox will fit).

456:

Good idea for a wikiproject! One suggestion I have off the bat is that we compile a list of references people can use to write articles on Japanese mythology. I've written quite a few articles on Japanese folklore myself (unfortunately, most before I became a convert of

1703:(haven't actually made that list yet...). Also, I would like to add some links at the very bottom of the vertical box, but I don't know what to add. Suggestions? If you guys are cool with these two boxes, we can take them live as soon as that list of artifacts is done. 2683:

Hi, Gryffindor! Anyone is welcome, so please sign your name to the project page. As for the names of articles, that's an area we haven't yet strayed into. It's a good question, though, and one that should be addressed. In the meantime, you might post something at

3591:

Brian, it would be much easier to name these creatures if the reading cards from the set were available. For now, I will show the images to some Japanese people and see if they have any guesses, but my feeling is most of them are gonna ask for the reading cards.

3550:

that two-page monster you describe! I'm being fairly tongue-in-cheek with my naysaying, but I do think a reasonable guideline for whether a particular pop-culture reference is appropriate is the importance of the character/thing in question. For example, good:

2615:

Just to give my thoughts. I would reject the Onigawara and Kagamibuta_netsuke, because you can't really tell what they are when they are made small enough for the stub template. The inari I put up might have the same problem - I can't really tell because I

3636:

be the name of the creature. Typically, the kana would be the first word in the sentence (the first word the caller says), not the first word of the Obake's name. But there's many different kinds of karuta, so I can't be certain without the reading cards.

3895: 1299:

I still prefer to avoid a vertical infobox, but that thin Hinduism one is much better than a lot of the other ones I've seen (like that Norse one). But what happens when there's a picture? Typically, if we've got artwork, it should lead the page (like at

1616:

Thanks! I agree that the top two look better, but the bottom one is the only one that will hold as much information as the current infobox...it will hold way more, in fact, so we may want to keep that one around to use as the number of articles goes up.

3611:

The kana will be simple enough. My current suspicion is that the monster depicted shares the same first syllable as the kana depicted; if so, that will make identification a little easier. I can't comfirm that yet, though. Looking through them now.

3474:

times), I'm suspecting that this is a bias to edit out a unique example that just happens to be anime-based. As he has presented no citation for this claim, and I have not found any, I'm asking all to see if there's anyone who has heard of this.--

3059:

Yeah, I can definitely understand your concern. I take Japanese class at school so I have gotten really into Japanese mythology and Shinto (I actually started the WikiProject:Shinto and the Category:People involved with Shinto). While I was on the

2105:

How long should items remain on the "News and announcements" section of the project page? If we don't delete old items now and again, the list will get very long! Perhaps a week would be good? Two? What about crossed-out items on the To-do list? —

2557:

2938:

Ha! It kind of does look like Satan, only he's sad about something. The fox is okay by me, only it's a bit too tall. Maybe if we monkey with it a bit more. As for the template, who creates it? The stub gods to whom we submitted the proposal? —

1465:, for example), so I definitely want to maintain the white background. White fits in better with the look of the rest of the site and avoids the gaudiness so many infoboxes are prone to. It also won't present a problem with text showing up. — 642:

I don't see a problem with a To-do list (in fact, probably have to create one). As for the pictures issue, I think there will probably have to be some rearranging done on some pages or such, unless someone has a better idea of how to handle

2189:

Ok. I was just going by the "getting to be quite a scroll to the bottom" criteria. ;-) How do you check the page size? Monthly archives (or however long...) seems good to me. Discussion-by-discussion would be somewhat of a pain, anyway.

4124:

I'm not particularly happy with the stereotypical manga lass that's there now. Other than the caption underneath it, there's nothing "zashiki-warashi" about her. If nothing better can be found, I'll just kick out the pic that's there

2224:

you've completed that task. This way, the to-do list keeps from getting cluttered, and there's no need to archive the to-do list, since the items get mentioned in "News and announcements" and thus get archived there. Make sense? —

1738:

or somesuch and include it on a much smaller navbox. But what happened to the small horizontal box? I kind of liked that one. BTW, I also use Safari, and the big box is somewhat messed up for me, as well. Good work, nonetheless! —

4094:" the zashiki-warashi inhabits an astral plane within the home, and will only materialize when something happens, such as when the inhabitants are in grave danger or some other serious issue threatens the home and its residents". 2958:. ^_^ Anyway, I think the rules state that if there's no opposition (and there wasn't), after a week (which it has now been), we can start making the stub. So I guess we can move it from the sandbox and slap it on a template.-- 4256:

where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention.

2258:

I think that doing it by KB makes a lot of sense as well. Discussion by discussion will make for some short pages, and even month to month might do so as well, should, say, all of us somehow get tied up during one particular

1308:), but when you try to stack them with an image, things get hairy. Are we suggesting a vertical infobox for pictureless pages and a horizontal footer one for pages where there's a lead image? I'd have no problem with that. — 2321:

out so it'd be on a white background. I don't know whether they'll show up at the reduced size of the stub image, though. I particularly like the oni and think it would probably show up best at a small size. Another option:

1266:

Well, personally, I'm particular to the vertical one, as I've seen that used most often on mythological and religion-based pages; however, I see the merits of the horizontal one as well. Ultimately, I'm for whatever works

3545:

Yeah, in this case, it's harmless. But beware: Pop-culture references are like cancer. As soon as someone adds that "In popular culture" section (alias "In media" or "Trivia"), the bullet points multiply until the section

2116:

Thought about that earlier myself. I think a week on the striked To-do items, then delete. Should we archive the News and Announcements every week or so? Or is archiving unnecessary? Simply delete after a couple of weeks?

1193:

Okay, this is what I get for trying to copy sections of the Anime and manga WP and Hindu myths WP to try to get this page up to snuff. ^_^;;; Yeah, the name in most common use should work, unless anyone else has any

2035:

I don't know if it kosher for people from a project to agree or disagree with the stub proposal, but the stub has been proposed. We can start re-marking the stubs in a week if there are no objections to our stub tag.

2705:

Not 100% sure, as the information does not come from a Japanese source at all, but actually from a friend who is a hardcore emu-gamer(and thus is hearsay): the Soukou is the final boss of the Super Famicom videogame

3405:

I think the project should have a specific article that we all work to improve. Similar to the Article Improvement Drive or the Collaboration of the Week, but specific to the Japanese Mythology project. Thoughts?

482:

Heh, if you think it's bad now, you should have seen it initially. The person who created it had some color schematic that was incomprehensible, and when I turned it into a template, I should have fixed it a lot

1410:

Well, I was thinking of the crimson red that's associated with Shinto (though, in truth, that's an import from China), though I'm sure other colors can work as well. I'll look into the boxes and see what I can

3078:

point us in the direction of some sites where the stuff specifically related to Shinto can be verified, I might reconsider, but my current opinion is we send the article to AfD and see what the community says.

3011: 1317:

After thinking about it, I think we should have two versions, and leave it up to the editors on individual pages to decide which one works best. Having the vertical infobox doesn't preclude an opening picture

page (I'm not sure why - can someone help?). We may even want to have a large vertical infobox for pages with no pictures, then a smaller vertical and large horizontal one so that editors will have a choice.

the point that it can clutter up pages and mess up the formatting of an article, which wouldn't be an issue with a horizontal box. Also, the new to-do template and news / announcements section are great.

539:

solve the problem of messing up right-justified images. (None of this is intended to trivialize the work done by Mitsukai, mind you. I just have strong feelings about this infobox, for some reason. :)) —

1721:

difference in the way Safari and IE handle the "hide" thingy. What does everyone think? Do we want the large box? If so, I'll work with it some more and get the links entered in. If not, I won't bother.

4223:, and was advised to try asking here. Would someone from this project mind heading over to that article with references and working on the section on Japan? I found a little bit of information on the 1474:

I agree with the majority of the box being white. I've seen more than enough psychadelic infoboxes around here (Mike will attest to that, having been a victim of the original version of our infobox).--

than to have several minor edit wars on many different pages! :) As for now, let's try for a thick vertical, thin vertical, and footer version. Then we'll talk about when to use what where. —

1183:

This isn't gonna work for mythological figures / legendary people / anyone that's dead ;-). I didn't change it because I don't know what our policy should be. Use the name in most common use?

695:

Okay, changed the Kami section of the infobox to Divinities so we can cover the non-Shinto deities as well (thinking primarily the infusions/Seven Lucky Gods) et al. Any thoughts on this?--

3647:

I could be wrong on the hitotsume-kozō card, Shimeru, so don't use that as evidence against your theory. There are a few that the site itself named; I'll try to add those in later today. —

3969:. Still, no Japanese sources. Should the legend be included with a disclaimer? It does get mentioned around in the English internets, so it is in a way notable, only possibly fictious... 2764:

Kamakura would be a good place to do so, if you can. It's just a trip south of Tokyo (on the Yokosuka line), and it has a rich history and cultural importance that might come in handy.--

2897:

Just put up a colored oni mask version. Still fairly monochromatic, but the horns are much more prominent. I suggest we just go with this one and be done with it. It's the bottom one on

Unfortunately, this project has been pretty dead for the past few weeks. But hopefully Nihonjoe or some of the other Japanese speakers are monitoring and can answer your first question.

lass that's there now. Other than the caption underneath it, there's nothing "zashiki-warashi" about her. If nothing better can be found, I'll just kick out the pic that's there now.

2685: 2334:. If we could find a free image of the Japanese imperial regalia (particularly the paisley-shaped thing), that would also be good. (The only image Knowledge has of this is copyright: 1996:

Actually, I just noticed that we had enough a long time ago. We only need 30 if the articles are related to a WikiProject. Anyway, having more will help us when we propose the stub.

When you're in edit mode, there will be a message above the edit box if the article is 30 KB or more. Currently, there's not message, which means we're in the clear. :) —

Speaking of archiving, this talk page is getting pretty long. We'll need to talk about whether to archive the talk page by month or by discussion. What does everyone think?

2492:

I might have something like that...I'll check my pictures. Also, if you can think of specific requests, I can take my camera out to some shrines or something this weekend.

I just finished up three new articles for this project. If anyone is still nosing around here, I would appreciate it if they would take a look and give me some feedback.

2020:

Fine by me. I started to yesterday, but I have never done it either, so I'm not sure what we should write in the proposal. But, yeah, the sooner the better in my opinion.

A FAC drive would definitely be more difficult. If we wanted to do that, we should use the availabilty of written sources as a criteria for which article to focus on.

193: 77: 2505:

I uploaded a picture of a guy wearing a mask sort of like that. It's from the front, though, and it has hair so it's hard to put against a background. Anyway, it's

Just checked these. I definitely like the vertical box. The big vertical box is way too big, IMHO. I'm not sure what good it does anyone to have all those links on

1461:

I also vote crimson if we can get it to work (but only for the header bar). I'm a big fan of the less-is-more school of infobox design (see what we came up with at

I might take a stab at creating a horizontal infobox based on the Norse mythology one, just so we can compare the two and make a decision. I will work on it in my

Kitsune no ho ga ii. I would prefer a more whiter and better looking kitsune though. All are good, but I think the kitsune would be the most "mysterious" one...

1374:. If we do end up going with thick and thin vertical infoboxes, I think we should still write some guidelines on when to use what. I'd rather do any negotiating 4280: 4275: 4172: 1853:

Anyone know how many articles we have left? By my count, we should have enough to start making the switch and making the announcement over at Stubs proposal.--

3775:

Also, I would like to have a new category, "kaidan," created to link together all of the articles on Japanese ghost stories. Is it possible to get this done?

2056: 1700: 1216:

No worries :-). I changed it for now, but "common usage" is a little vague and we may want to be more specific. Perhaps simply refer to the Manual of Style.

331: 3342:

Going to throw my vote in here, too, for what it's worth at this point. It's perhaps a little busy, but a great pic. The topmost oni works for me, too. -

3497:. It's sort of an analogy for Japan's modernization destroying belief in the old traditions. The only direct reference to the idea I could find is in this 2537:

Starting back over here because I'm lazy like that. ^_^ Anyway, added a magatama version with an image I made in Illustrator a couple of minutes ago.--

I agree. The categories were set up long before anyone thought of doing this project, and apparently have been done haphazardly. Perhaps taking it to

I added a rough version of the fox, just to have an idea. It doesn't look as good as I hoped, mainly because the original image was a little too dark.

3772:. I brought this up on the discussion page for that article, but no editor seems to be monitoring it, so it was suggested that I post here. 2077:

Well, since I doubt it's going to be shot down, perhaps we should start looking into the design of the stub. Side image, wording and such.--

I would say yes... as long as there are English sources. Even if it's a hoax, as long as it's a noteworthy one, it merits inclusion.

The fact that Japanese folklore and mythology are so integrated makes me wonder if we should merge the two categories completely. The
