16:3716:37, 29 November 2024 diff hist −5 Celtic languages →Examples: The Manx sentence included a reference to God, which isn't in the source sentence, and doesn't match what's being said in the other languages. current

22:2222:22, 12 November 2024 diff hist −833 Tonfa →Traditional origin story: All of this is nonsense. Martial arts were imported into Okinawa by the upper classes, not farmers. Kobudo weapons were not used against "Samurai". Tag: section blanking

10:0710:07, 21 October 2024 diff hist −118 Sai (weapon) →History: removed subjective statement that isn't backed up with any reference.
10:0610:06, 21 October 2024 diff hist −125 Sai (weapon) Raphael seems unable to accept that the weapon didn't originate in Okinawa, despite evidence for use elsewhere that predates use in Okinawa. The references to Silat are being removed over and over with no justification. There's no problem with using the name "sai" as it's probably the most popular term in English, but as a weapon, it's found across South-East Asia and the use in Okinawa is only part of its history.

22:3922:39, 20 October 2024 diff hist 58 Sai (weapon) tidied up odd changes from Raphael that make no sense.

22:2722:27, 20 October 2024 diff hist −22 Sai (weapon) Clarified geographic origin. The article contradicted itself, as there are a number of sources for the Sai in Asia that predate its use in Okinawa.

13:0613:06, 3 September 2024 diff hist −124 Karate →In film and popular culture: removed spurious picture of Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee didn't identify as a Karate practitioner so there is insufficient justification for another picture because of a tenuous association.
12:5912:59, 3 September 2024 diff hist −19 Karate →Japan: removed spurious "kimono" reference. The history of the Dogi and Kaeikogi is sufiicient to cover this. There is some confusion creeping in from the use of "kimono" by BJJ to refer to Dogi.
12:4512:45, 3 September 2024 diff hist 21 Sai (weapon) →Parts of the sai: edit clarification on language
12:4312:43, 3 September 2024 diff hist −23 Sai (weapon) Edited to remove some contradictions between the introduction and history. The weapon probably didn't originate in Okinawa, but became famous following its association with Japanese-style Karate in the 20th century. I've removed a spurious reference to "ninjitsu" since there's no documented history of the weapon in Japan before its introduction from Okinawa in fairly recent history. I've added reflection on modern martial arts since many of them have absorbed the Sai into their curriculums.

16:5016:50, 19 August 2024 diff hist −1,043 Manx English →Manx loanwords: Removed the uncited "in use in 2021" entries. Although the commentary says "recorded", there's no link to any citations for the records or to entries in the Anglo-Manx Dictionaries.

16:1316:13, 2 July 2024 diff hist −61 Manx English →Modern Anglo-Manx lexicon: Removed "Shaking Grass" as this is a common name for "Briza Media" in mainstream English and is not specific to the Anglo-Manx Dialect.
