How to source a Japanese wiki page information?

Not much but it is something, a start. I found that wikis in different languages will more information than the same in English.

In this case the English page mentions that Osawa was major distributor, but page in Japanese ( trans. via Google Translate ) states that it was a major shareholder. The translated section of the Japanese page states

"However , 1984 February 29 , the principal at the time of Mamiya shareholder is a camera sales have been dealt with in overseas Osawa Shokai virtually bankrupt. Mamiya also received the tilt, the same year March 5 to the Corporate Rehabilitation Law have started the reorganization proceedings based on. In this process, the withdrawal from Mamiya ZE series is a 35mm film camera equipped with a miracle mount. It was decided to specialize in the manufacture of medium-format camera is a specialty."

How to source a ad/article in the Google Books versions of a Popular Photography/Science/Mechanics article(s)?

Google books has searchable scan copies of the above magazines. I found at two ads for Osawa products.
