Entry: Kuzushi, Jigoro Kano and the Olympics - A36660882
Author: KZ - the abbreviation formerly known as WG - U8183342

There's a lot more that could be said about these things, but this is how far I've got so far.

I haven't yet read it all, but what I read is very interesting and well written.

You may want to link to Judo A132850

Oh, and I'm a bit confused that you call it jujutso, I thought the name was jujitso?

This will be a great entry when polished, but for now I'll give you these pointers.

State what year you are writing this in. Perhaps in a footnote or brackets.

olympic = Olympic

B'El's right, rather than link to You Tube link to H2G2 entries such as this one on Judo A132850

There are also a number of samurai entries that you may like to link to

I would try to work out a way of incorporating what you’ve put into footnotes into the entry rather than separate them

Like B'El I've only read part of this so far but I'll return

Thank you for the feedback and encouragement
About spelling, jujutsu (with a 'u' at the end, not an 'o') is the English spelling of the old Japanese martial art. The 'ju' bit is the same as in judo, and the 'jutsu' bit = art ('do' = way). But for some reason in BJJ it is written Brazilian jiujitsu.

Thanks for these tips

Do I have to?
It's just that I don't rate it that highly. There are one or two factual errors in it, and I don't think it says anything very interesting.

If there are factual arrors in the entry, please post them to <./>feedback-editorial</.>

A nice curator will correct them. Leave the A number of the entry in the subject line and in your post, it will make it easier for the curators to find the entry in question.

I haven't looked at the YouTube link, my internet connection is too dodgy for that. However, there usuaslly are copyright issues with YouTube clips, which is why we generally aren't allowed to link to them in Guide Entries (I take it you'll want to submit this to PR at a later time, for inclusion in the Edited Guide?).

And sorry for the misspelling, what I was referring to was the second u you have in jujitsu.

That's

No you don't have to link to anything if you don't want to. I'm not so sure linking to an item on youtube is the way to go though. Perhaps you could update the entry on Judo.

Oh, right. Ok.

Yes, I realised that. Jujutsu - no "i" in it - is the correct spelling, although it seems to get written jujitsu a lot, even in dictionaries. 'Jutsu' is Japanese for art. Don't know about 'jitsu'.

I just like the visual impact of the moving image. But perhaps you're right.

I've capitalised all the instances of Olympic and added a link to entry A663086

Opti is quite correct. One of the clips you link to has already been pulled for copyright violation, and I wouldn't be surprised if the others followed. We have to be extremely careful about linking to copyrighted content as we are part of the BBC site, and the Beeb doesn't want to be seen to be encouraging illegal video uploads.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I will be incorporating them when I have time.
I mostly use H2G2 when I have the odd quiet moment during the day, and I have other demands at home from the people that live here, so I have to try to find time for it when I can, so if it takes a while that doesn't mean I've ignored your suggestions, I just need time to focus on it if you see what I mean

Done about as much as I can with this.
Can it go to the next stage yet?

If you think its ready

Well, I should probably add something about the role of sumo in the development of judo.

That's it.

Can't take any more. Gonna put it into peer review.

with it there.

Thanks.
