Introducing new translated content edit

I have began introducing new content translated from the coresponding Japanese Wikipedia article. Please be patient while this work is done. Please help by tidying up the markup I have introduced, as it is more efficient for someone else to help tidying up, while I work in two languages and WP mark up at the same time. That would be helpful. Please feel free to ask about anything I'm doing. Dr.khatmando (talk) 02:21, 30 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Translators notes (ongoing) edit

1.0 The Japanese article states that Shimoda took up employment with Daniel Burnham to further his study of steel-fram construction on such projects as the 「アライアンスビル」= Alliance Building. This seems to be a mistake in the transliteration of the Reliance Building listed as one of Burnham's projects listed in the Daniel Burnham article.

2.0 Evidence for the clarification of dates in regards to the following:

  • 1895 Citizenship
  • 1896 Shimoda's marriage to Rose
  • 1897 Shimoda's licensing as a US Architect

are accurate according the research conducted by Ikeda of the Akita Prefectural Museum Dr.khatmando (talk) 08:57, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
