I don't feel competent to offer an "official" third opinion, but from reading through the debate, it's clear to me that you have the right of it.

Just thought I'd offer some encouragement, since it looks like two different users decided to take issue with the "prostitutes" descriptor, heh—hopefully, a more-qualified user than I will be able to convince 'em.

Cheers,

The ironic part of this is that I am not advocating in any way for the inclusion of the word "Prostitute" on the article. The other editor keeps adding mentions of prostitutes. All I suggested is that the lead should represent what the reliable sources say, which is that geji sometimes had sex with their clients. At no point did I ever say that the word "prostitute" should be added. Brocade River Poems 20:37, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I chose to do Articles for Creation because I wasn't completely confident in just making an article myself. In theory, I figured others might be able to find some fault I might have overlooked during creation, and if so, that would be good for the encyclopedia.

Thank you

I just want to thank you for all the effort you put into the Yasuke article. I find it a scandal that your effort was used as evidence against you, and that you are assumed to be a gategamer because you are new and posted on the Yasuke thread. Your biggest mistake seems to have been being fair to people you disagree with. I found your translations helpful. Tinynanorobots (talk) 12:08, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

People can say what they wish about me. It is what it is. In the end, it's not worth the headache dealing with everything involved with that article any longer. I suppose if both sides of the dispute hate me as belonging to the other camp, it must be a testament to my neutrality. My involvement began because a singular editor's translation work was being held up as the definitive article, and I knew sayamaki had multiple possible meanings. Had I been a smarter woman, I'd of ended my involvement there. Any future activity I engage in on Wikipedia will remain confined to that which I enjoy, nothing more, and nothing less, and hopefully there won't be so much in the way of drawing battlelines.
