Train station names

[edit]

I noticed that you changed the name of Minamichōkai Station. According to pictures of the train platform (see here), the official names matched the article names before you changed them. Can you elaborate on why you added the hyphen and capitalization? Thanks! Neier 11:11, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reverting the changes. I agree that "Adjective-Place" with capital letters seems more natural, but on the Japan trains project, we have agreed to follow the way JR and other companies name their lines, even if it is inconsistent. I still don't understand why 羽前 stations are hyphenated, but 羽後 stations are not (see 羽前豊里 and 羽後境 at this page. By the way, if you are interested in trains, you can join the trains in Japan project by visiting this page and signing up. Regards. Neier 00:43, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:24, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
