Gratuitous violence warning banner
I physically vomited after skimming this article. Can a warning banner be placed on it please?
Pearl Harbor Casualties as Non-Combatants
In the "Attacks on neutral powers" section, it is claimed "The U.S. officially classified all 3,649 military and civilian casualties and destruction of military property at Pearl Harbor as non-combatants as there was no state of war between the U.S. and Japan when the attack occurred." I have removed one self-published source by Dennis W. Shepherd (2004) that failed verification and flagged the two remaining sources. There is a commercially published second edition (2015) of Understanding International Law by Stephen C. McCaffrey but I have not been able access that text to verify the relevant claim. --Mox La Push (talk) 23:27, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
Shouldn't the article include Japanese war crimes committed in pre-WWII?
Almost every country's article relating to the same topic has listed war crimes committed in pre-WWII wars, but for some reason, no one bothered to add the list of pre-WWII Japanese war crimes in this article. If someone with the knowledge of Japanese military history can fill out pre-WWII war crimes, that would be appreciated and the article needs to be reconstructed to fit in these lists.

I believe this Misplaced Pages page should be locked
I've been hearing some reports that Japanese ultra-nationalists are vandalizing Japanese war crime Misplaced Pages pages (either to be removed or deny these events)
They targeted the Japanese, English, and some Chinese pages.
Shouldn't this be locked down so these aren't vandalized?
Japanese imperialism should be distinct from Japanese militarism
In this article the hyperlink 'Japanese imperialism' in the opening para redirects to 'Japanese Militarism'. The two are different and nor does the article on the latter claims to use the terms synonymously. Please make the necessary changes.
