Fixing Title

[edit]

How do I fix the title, which should read Yoshiaki Yamashita? Joseph Svinth 07:27, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If Yamashita is his family name, then the article title should be "Yamashita Yoshiaki", per WP:MOS-JP (because he was born prior to the first year of Meiji, 1868). Bradford44 14:41, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
When it was uploaded, the title was solely "Yamashita"... Joseph Svinth 23:44, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

[edit]

Wow! Quite an interesting article! Very good prose, I particularly like the japanese characters provided with translations. I think this article meets the good article criteria. While the article is very well referenced (and with primarily non-internet citations, too), editors should probably review WP:CITE for tips on formatting the references a bit better. There are a few websites in the citations, and these should be formatted a bit differently (see the example I provided for the last one (which I also added a cite to the 10th dan posthumous bit). Other than that, I think more info could probably be added to the 'later life' section; the two quotes seem to dominate that section quite a bit, so perhaps some non-quote prose could help that out more. But these are minor glitches, which should definitely be fixed prior to WP:FAC, but IMHO, not worth holding up GA status. Good work! Dr. Cash 18:05, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
