Relevance of Koizumi image

Why is an image of former prime minister Koizumi relevant to this article? I removed it but it was readded by User:ピノキオ. --DAJF (talk) 13:33, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

:Oh it is a good question. J. Koizumi was a former prime minister, and he promoted structural reforms in Japan with Heizo Takenaka. This problem and he are related closely, then this picture must be included. Please read the books that I introduced you in your note.ピノキオ (talk)

::In that case, I think the connection really ought to be made more within the article, because it is not obvious as the article stands, and the picture just appears to be used as decoration. --DAJF (talk) 01:17, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

:I agree with both. If you read the original references, Koizumi was relevant. But I redid the article to use mainly English references in which he wasn't mentioned directly. So for now I left it out. But I think it's quite possible that an English book may come out this year that explains the problem in the original political context. If that happens, then we can put it back.--Margin1522 (talk) 05:50, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
