I am not sure how to deal with memoirs, they are probably not WP:RS for our purposes here, and my inclination would be just copy them to the wikiarticles of their authors. If the author/book isn't notable, it probably isn't worth keeping. buidhe 05:34, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

I've trimmed the list per this discussion. Down to four now. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 03:36, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

    • It's from a long-running newspaper in Los Angeles. I'm not seeing the "questionable reliability" issue. I think this one should be kept, too. I've removed all of them but the two I mentioned here. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:58, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
