Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment[edit]

This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 1 September 2020 and 14 December 2020. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Busk12.

Above undated message substituted from Template:Dashboard.wikiedu.org assignment by PrimeBOT (talk) 00:41, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Added updates[edit]

Just published a variety of updates from my research. I did my best to update information and find citations, but there are still some noticeable gaps in the original content which I made sure to mark. Busk12 (talk) 18:00, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Upcoming updates[edit]

I'm currently working on improvements for this article, including: updating the statistics, rewriting/reorganizing the regulation section, and adding in information about the use and effects of the Internet in Japan. I may also revise the History section and try to find sources, but I'm not sure I'll be able to find where all of the information comes from. Busk12 (talk) 23:53, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Needs more dates[edit]

Surely Japan had Internet service before 1999. This article needs to go back further in time, and date each event by at least the year. — Walloon 07:37, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

-- TWICS was apparently first, and Niftyserve apparently started in 1989. JANIS in Nagano was another early pioneer. Global On-Line (GOL), started by Roger Boisvert, was another. LittleBen (talk) 22:39, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Citations?[edit]

All this information is great, but it would be nice to have something to back it up with. I also don't know how to add the "Cite sources" tag. :/ - 129.237.76.69 16:34, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Japan Assessment Commentary[edit]

The article was rated Stub-class because it's a complete mess that provides very little useful information. There is no introduction, or it was deleted, so that the starting sentence is like some random point in a larger article. Furthermore, the article is riddled with internet-specific jargon with no explanation or context. There is very little in the way of time frame; sources are sorely lacking. Good luck to whomever eventually tries to improve it. Boneyard90 (talk) 19:07, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Information relevant to how FTTH Permeation was achieved And NTT's continuing relationship with the Japanese Government[edit]
