A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Based on this ruling: viewtopic.php?f=59&t=91260
So just to be clear, I can now target my Wedged personalities with actions that are performed by him, but don't actually target him, such as Impetuous Challenge?
Wedge: Battle: Target your Personality: You may not target cards in his unit with actions until after this battle ends. After this battle’s Resolution Segment begins, double his Force and the Force of each Follower in his unit. Destroy him after the battle ends.
Impetuous Challenge: Battle: Choose your performing unbowed Personality: He challenges a target enemy Personality. Bow the duel’s loser’s unit.
Or any other action that similarly is performed by a personality, but does not explicitly target?

Yes.
Choosing a performer is not targeting.
