[[WP:NONAZIS]] |

It has come to my attention that a large proportion of the information available out there in the blogosphere and popular media about ''[[The Tale of Genji]]'' and its author, [[Murasaki Shikibu]], is bullshit (to use [https://cosmolearning.org/video-lectures/the-afterlife-of-the-new-testament-and-postmodern-interpretation-6819/ Professor Martin's word]). I will therefore make amending and expanding English Wikipedia's coverage of this topic, which is very near and dear to my heart already, my next big project. I am not sure how good our ''current'' coverage is, but if it is adequate, clearly not enough people are reading it. I am, therefore, eliminating my user page content for the time being as a reminder to myself and others that this is why I am here for the time being. Japanese Wikipedia currently has a standalone article on each book of the ''Genji'', which is just one example of a shortcoming of en.wiki's current coverage.

== Username stuff == |
|||
=== Explanation of my current username === |
|||
My username is a reference to [[Kakinomoto no Hitomaro]], the {{nihongo|"Saint of Poetry"|歌の聖|uta no hijiri}}.[http://nwudir.lib.nara-wu.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/10935/192/1/32_07_02.pdf] |

"88" references the year of my birth, and has nothing to do with neo-fascism. The penchant of various editors such as the long-banned [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Genesis_creation_narrative&diff=prev&oldid=607605359 Til Eulenspiegel] to compare me to a Nazi aside, there really is no such connection. (This was during my IP-phase in early-mid 2014; I reported the incident [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive839#Til Eulenspiegel is comparing me to a Nazi|here]]. Curiously, he [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=744952759&oldid=744952696 claimed] to have been following me ever since; this is weird, because I made very few logged-in edits for like eight months. How was he following my edits?) |
|||
:So, I blanked my userpage for a certain reason on 25 June 2021, and ''five days later'' someone [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=1031285701&oldid=1031285657 took advantage of the opportunity to call me a Nazi]. I guess it's my fault for removing this notice from my user page for a few days: in the future I will try to remember that, if I don't have an explicit statement on my user page that "88" is the year I was born, other editors are not obliged to adhere to [[WP:WIAPA]] and refrain from calling me a Nazi. (''Chinami ni'', the accusation was itself retaliation for me pointing out that the other user was defending Trump, Trump supporters, and the "far right" in general by saying that they shouldn't be compared to fascists.) |
|||
=== What my username is ''not'' === |
|||
My username is not "Hijiri 88"; if you try to ping me with that I will not get your ping. "The Accuser" is also not my username, even though I do think that is [[Ronan the Accuser|a totally awesome nickname]] and I would not object to its being formally adopted by Wikipedians with whom I've developed a relationship of trust. "The Primary Accuser"[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Brough87&diff=840681727&oldid=840676508] sounds even more like a comic book character, but it is also acceptable. |
|||
=== Rant about my old username and how it has been usurped by ... me ... === |
|||
I also used to own the username [[User:Elvenscout742|Elvenscout742]] until some genius decided that the Japanese/French Wikipedia editor still known by that name who hasn't edited in years must be a different person from me, and all my redirects had "en" added to them and the old ones deleted. Am I allowed to re-add those redirects? Or must all my talk page signatures from 2005 to 2013 be permanently red-linked, lest I accidentally be confused with the "other" Elvenscout742? |
|||
Unified log-in confuses me... |

== Response to off-wiki criticism by disturbingly racist editors == |
|||
In case any overt racists like [http://www.koreansentry.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4670&start=50 these two] care about such things, by neither citizenship nor ethnicity am I Japanese, Taiwanese, Chinese, northern Han, Filipino, Tibetan or Mongolian. I was born in Dublin, Ireland to two Gaelic-Irish Catholic parents, and lived there until I moved to Japan in 2012 at age 24. My first language is English. My skin is pale, my eyes are blue and my hair is light brown. |
