Talk:Hiroshi Araki

Unsourced assertion

i have removed the following text because there seems to be no justification for it:

He should not be confused with Aum Shinrikyo's public representative of the same name.

Proposed deletion

• "Unreferenced on the Internet" - Putting aside the issue that the Internet is not the fount of all knowledge (by far!), we do find some on-line references to this astronomer:
  • http://www.jasmine-galaxy.org/pub/index.html
  • http://www.geo.uni-jena.de/geophysik/etc/par.html
  • http://www.asiaoceania-conference.org/participate/abstract_ps.html (see under PS09)
  • The NASA ADS has 23 publications under his name (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs_connect?db_key=AST&db_key=PRE&qform=AST&sim_query=YES&ned_query=YES&aut_logic=OR&obj_logic=OR&author=araki%2C+h&object=&start_mon=&start_year=&end_mon=&end_year=&ttl_logic=OR&title=&txt_logic=OR&text=&nr_to_return=100&start_nr=1&jou_pick=ALL&ref_stems=&data_and=ALL&group_and=ALL&start_entry_day=&start_entry_mon=&start_entry_year=&end_entry_day=&end_entry_mon=&end_entry_year=&min_score=&sort=SCORE&data_type=SHORT&aut_syn=YES&ttl_syn=YES&txt_syn=YES&aut_wt=1.0&obj_wt=1.0&ttl_wt=0.3&txt_wt=3.0&aut_wgt=YES&obj_wgt=YES&ttl_wgt=YES&txt_wgt=YES&ttl_sco=YES&txt_sco=YES&version=1)
  • etc.
• "It is unreferenced" - Not true. He is listed as the discoverer of 26887 Tokyogiants (see List of asteroids/26001–27000), and will very likely be further linked to when the MUSES-C article is augmented (and the HITEN, LUNAR-A, SELENE, VERA, JASMINE and ILOM articles likewise).
• In summary, yes, he is a minor and obscure astronomer, but so what? The article is small and will likely remain so: no harm done.

More than one person of note with this name

I suspect there may have been more than one notable person with this name. There is the amateur astronomer Hiroshi Araki, born in 1935, for whom 8707 Arakihiroshi was named. That would make him 75 years old. There is also a Hiroshi Araki who works at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan who has been publishing scientific papers about the Moon as recently as 2010. Based on his publications, the latter individual actually looks more like a material properties scientist. So there may even be three people.

Can we confirm whether this article is conflating the information from two or more different individuals? Thanks.—RJH (talk) 19:19, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

I removed one of the external links that was obviously about the material scientist and not the astronomer. The "article rescue squadron" haphazardly window dressed this article in order to get it through a deletion discussion, which is what created this situation. Gigs (talk) 16:52, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

I assure you the article is only about the latter individual Hiroshi Araki/荒木博志. I didn't check ELs though. According to this (translation), the amateur astronomer Hiroshi Araki is 荒木宏司 and lives in Kyoto. As for Hiroshi Araki/荒木博志, you can see his photo at here. Oda Mari (talk) 15:42, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for checking.—19:18, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

• Gigs, the article was not haphazardly window dressed. The editor who tagged it for rescue added a number of links, only one of which mentioned someone else by that name, a simple mistake. [1] Dream Focus 19:39, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, Dream Focus. I didn't know there was another scientist of the same name, as that wasn't mentioned anywhere by anyone else. I apologize for the single link that got slipped in there, my bad. Yes, i'm being slightly sarcastic. Silverseren^C 20:23, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
