Japanese Military's "Comfort Women" System

Hello. Thanks very much for contributing here. I would just like to explain some misunderstanding. English Wikisource hosts original works in the exact form as they were published. We do not try to correct them. Japanese Military's "Comfort Women" System is a text as published in Congressional Research Service Memorandum in 2007 by Larry Niksch and we cannot add to or change anything in the Niksch’s text. As for the work’s Wikisource talk page, these pages serve only for discussions how to improve the way in which we host the text, not to discussions about the text. Thanks for understanding. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 09:41, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your advice. I understand. Eyagi (talk) 01:39, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Works that have user-created translations must have copies on the original language Wikisource that are backed by scans in that language. The scans from original publication get uploaded to Commons, then the text is transcribed at Wikisource. Without a scan-backed copy on the original language, we do not create local translations. This is explained in Wikisource:Translations in the section "Wikisource original translations". --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:34, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Please let me know how to let you know when the language version is published. Eyagi (talk) 01:24, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

You can request undeletion by starting a new discussion section at Wikisource:Proposed deletions --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:36, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your advice. I understand. The original documents are Japanese laws and regulations, publicly available without copyright issues. Eyagi (talk) 01:09, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
