I noticed something on your user page that could be done more efficiently. Instead of mentioning all languages you know and how well you know them in a separate paragraph, you could also use the Wikipedia:Babel function. In your case, you'd need this code, I think. Fyrius 16:03, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Latin Wikiquote (Vicicitatio)

Hello! I see you have tagged yourelf with a {{la-4}} template. Would you like to help us by translating into latin any of the official polices or help pages of Wikipedia? —Argentino (talk/cont.) 20:57, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hapkido

The user from IP 211.131.245.114 has made some edits that bring up the question of Hapkido's origins. These edits seem to say that Hapkido is "exported aikido", which might be controversial. I have heard that there is some connection with Daito-ryu, but that it is not clearly documented.

I suggest reverting to "the Korean art called Hapkido", because it is a Korean art. However, 211.131.245.114 may have a point: perhaps we should add a sentence about its probable Japanese origins.

Thoughts? --GenkiNeko 15:56, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Hapukido has not received correct succession of Takeda Sokaku. Therefore, I think that I should remove the description concerning Hapukido. Daito-ryu aiki-jujutsu is thought to be one of the roots of Aikido. However, Hapukido doesn't influence Aikido at all. These two Marshall arts should not be equally treated. --211.131.245.114 16:42, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps it is not a "correct" continuation of Daito-ryu, if by "correct" you mean "complete". However, the Hapkido page includes, under "Choi Yong Sul", an interview with Kishhomaru Ueshiba that indicates there is at least some connection. (Sidenote: the correct term is "martial" arts, not "marshall".)
I suggest a new version with the following points, if we can agree on them:
  • Hapkido is not a "style of aikido"; it is a separate martial art
  • Hapkido appears to have some Daito-ryu influence (cite interview with Kisshomaru Ueshiba)
  • Hapkido is spelled with the same kanji/hanja, suggesting it considers itself related (perhaps cite a Hapkido page describing its history to show self-identification)
--GenkiNeko 16:57, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
The page of Hapukido was confirmed. The relation between Hapukido and Aikido is being controverted. (The Hapukido organization of South Korea denies Japan to influence now. Hapukido is traditional original Marshall arts of Korea. [1])To prevent various misunderstandings, will we delete Hapukido?　Hapukido is not necessary always information in Aikido. --211.131.245.114 18:13, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

You could also add yourself to the [[Category:Wikipedian aikidoka|Your name]]. Thanks for your contributions.Peter Rehse 00:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

How do I do that, again?

Aikido has been submitted to FAC. Lets take it that final mile.Peter Rehse 00:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Jun - the owner of aikiweb has privately said that if there are any pictures in the aikiweb gallery that the Aikido article could use I should let him know. I think we are looking for action shots that clearly show technique and look good at the same time. Could you take a look and let ME know of any that strike your fancy and then I will give him a list early next week.Peter Rehse 00:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Try looking here for some Hapkido history info. They seem to have a legitimate reputation and proper historical content of some sort. Http://www.hapkiyoosool.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hapkiyoosool (talk • contribs) 17:00, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] genkineko

just wondering, do you actually do aikido and/or speak japanese?Wwilson 1 00:14, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Nah. I just put that ja-1 entry on my language box to screw with people. As for aikido, I just copy and paste random blocks of text from aikiweb. Nobody's noticed so far. --GenkiNeko 03:33, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

i figured as much. either that, or you are being sarcastic here, which just makes you come off as an egotistical asshole.Wwilson 1 11:26, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Could you help me write this article?

Hello,

I was wondering if you would be willing to help me write either Seikichi_Iha or Shorin-ryu_Shido-kan. Tkjazzer 21:48, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Aikido

Hi I just resubmitted the Aikido article for Featured article status. Appreciate it, based on your previous help, if you could take a look.Peter Rehse 08:23, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Now I really need help. Got a vandal.Peter Rehse 13:24, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Hdr-ration.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Hdr-ration.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 08:57, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
