Talk:Hachioji

Pointless chain store listings

Several shops in the shopping sections are chain stores. If they are exceptional or notable for some reason specific to the location in Hachioji, that's great, but if they're just another branch of the same national chain, they aren't useful to travelers and should be removed. If you have any specific information about these shops that warrants their inclusion here, please add it to the main page -Douglaspperkins (talk) 03:35, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

The stated reason is "This file is a copyright violation because it is copyrighted and not published under a free license.", but when you investigate further, it's an FoP issue.

We can make a decision about whether we want to use this banner, but now, we have time to make it without its being deleted at any moment. How old is the shrine pictured in the banner? Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:21, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

I have challenged the speedy deletion nomination in order to have a discussion. See here. The issue seems to be the sculpture on the left, not the shrine. I'm arguing that it's incidental, given the banner's size on the page. I doubt my argument will carry the day on Commons, but it seems reasonable here. I also strongly objected to nominating a Wikivoyage pagebanner for speedy deletion. Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:30, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

I'll also argue against deletion. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 08:33, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks. I think we'll lose, but it really is extremely inconsiderate for that Commons user to nominate a Wikivoyage pagebanner for speedy deletion. Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Also have let ja.wikivoyage know as well. p.s. aren't you also fairly active on commons as well? SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 08:43, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Yep. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:50, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Okay, so letting the Japanese Wikivoyage know was kind of useless since I've made 100% of all edits today (UTC) so far. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 08:55, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

You read and write in Japanese? Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:00, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Nah. Just wrote the message in English. I don't know a single language that's not in latin script, and the only non european language I know to a fair bit in Bahasa Melayu (enough for me to survive) and Nauruan (enough to be a sysop in).
