Proposed deletion of Minoru Harada

The article Minoru Harada has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. --DAJF (talk) 03:58, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Hello. You have a new message at Skier Dude's talk page.

Living people

You recently added a name to List of Buddhists without supplying a citation. Wikipedia requires the citation of a reliable source which reports the self-identification of the subject with the religion for all WP:BLPliving people. Any such additions without such a citation will be quickly removed.

The statement of policy itself can be found at WP:BLPCAT: "Categories regarding religious beliefs or sexual orientation should not be used unless the subject has publicly self-identified with the belief or orientation in question, ... according to reliable published sources. ... These principles apply equally to lists,..." Yworo (talk) 18:21, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Namu

Hi, I understand your point of view but NAM is a language nonsense in Japanese. That is why the Chinese characters NAN and MU are used, written, pronounced and chanted or recited properly as NA-MU. Only trasncription is not proper. As a result one part of this invocation is incorrect.--Seibun (talk) 14:36, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
