Which image should be used in the Infobox? There has been consistent edit warring and changes to the infobox image since October. [2] A discussion was had on which - or if any - image should be used to depict Yasuke (link to discussion topic) where no consensus was reached. Two of the images (the Sumō Yūrakuzu Byōbu and Rinpa Suzuri-bako) are discussed as possible depictions by sources and discussed on the page already. For more information on the sources, Rotary Engine compiled the current mentions in their comment (here). Another option proposed using a modern artwork depiction by Anthony Azekwoh. Another option was to use no image in the infobox at all. Relm (talk) 09:52, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

This RfC is to determine the consensus about (1) whether the current explanation of "self-published" in WP:SPS generally serves us well, perhaps with small improvements, or if it should be revised in some significant way, and (2) how editors interpret "self-published," in order to help us revise the explanation if needed.
