Hi there! Thanks for your contributions to Kompeito.

I noticed you added an extra kanji variant of the word, and took out the hiragana version. ja:金平糖 uses 金平糖 as the title of the article, and it's the most common way to write the word if kanji is to be used at all, so I suggest we leave that as the primary spelling. Including alternate spellings is probably not that useful unless we list all of them.

Also, the katakana variant spelling コンペイトー is extremely uncommon; there are only 417 hits for it on Google. こんぺいとう has 138,000, so we should keep it there instead of the katakana spelling. It's by far the most common way to write the word.

If you don't mind, I think I'll make these changes. Thanks again for contributing! --Che Fox 06:25, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Kenkanryu[edit]

Thanks for making the Kenkanryu article, I knew there had to be someone out there who would do a better job then me! I just wanted to let you know that you might find these blog posts helpful -- [1][2].--ThreeAnswers 00:08, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also you might find this helpful.[3] It's a Korean news report about the book, but interviews are in Japanese and I can do a bit of translation if you want.--ThreeAnswers 03:24, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

フランスファイブ[edit]

Hello, I noticed you speak Japanese, and I am curious if you can help us translate this into English, for Super Sentai.

フランスファイブを見た串田氏のほうから、主題歌を歌ってみたい！との友情にとんだ申し出があり、氏みずからフランスファイブのために曲を作詞・作曲してくださった。

You can find more information here. Thank you! Taric25 20:25, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how to translate this exactly, but it says that Kushida himself wrote the music and lyrics for France Five upon request.--Ryoske 08:58, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thank you for your help! Taric25 05:38, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This man is a JAPANESE[edit]

This man is a JAPANESE. why do you pretend to foreighner?

I am not Japanese, I state on my userpage that I am Australian, and cannot speak the Japanese language fluently (I can prove this, as if you look in the history of Neo Gomanism Manifesto Special - On War, you can find that User:Madler corrected my incorrect translations of the chapter names.)--Ryoske 05:41, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And as for me "pretending to be a foreigner", Ryoske is merely an alias chosen due to my interest in Japan.--Ryoske 05:56, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Erik Mongrain - エリック・モングレイン ??[edit]

Hello, I contact you to help me with an article to translate in japanese. At the beginning, I have created the article with the caracters エリック・モングレン, but wikipedians decides to spell it エリック・モングレイン instead, because Erik didn't have a official Website in japanese. I'm Erik Mongrain's Webmaster, and to do the japanese pages, the translator have spelled Erik Mongrain エリック・モングレン. The problem that I have is that there's 2 ways his name in japanese and I was wondering which one is the good one for his official Website (and the article)...

エリック・モングレイン - Wikipedia
エリック・モングレン - Translator

My question is : which spelling would you choose for the official name of Erik Mongrain in japanese??

Thank in advance for your help. Have a nice day! --Antaya 00:59, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I guess モングレイン would be the better spelling, since it's used on the official website.--Ryoske 06:34, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Hyeomilryu cover.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Hyeomilryu cover.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Pop music[edit]

Hey, Ryoske, I'd like to ask for a favour in your capacity as Japanese-English translator. I'm working on a complete re-write of Pop music and when I recently moved the text from my sandbox to the article, the format of the link to the Japanese-language Wikipedia was lost. I don't have Japanese fonts on my system so am unable to fix it myself, would you be as kind as to correct it for me when you have the time? You can go straight to the appropriate section here. Thank you very much. ↔ Dennywuh (talk) 15:12, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese Music Charts[edit]

Hi, I'm just writing to you to request your help and assistance in referencing the Japanese Music Charts. Through out alot of popular english songs I have viewed I have noticed that they have been noted as performing well in Japan and have also read that the Japanese music market it very big. But in saying this every song I have seen has not got a Japanese chart position in the charts box. So if you are into music and willing to try and provide information on the Japanese Music Charts it would be greatly appreciated so then wikipedia users can start adding the Japanese chart positions into the chart boxes for popular songs.

Korean racial slur.[edit]

Hello Ryoske. Please join the discussion at Talk:Anti-Japanese_sentiment.

I know it's been years since your edit, but if you could join the discussion that would be great. PBJT (talk) 20:32, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
