View source for Talk:源 (Minamoto)

There are obviously a great many other Minamoto to be listed here... this is just a start, but does include all the Minamoto for whom we have articles thus far. I'm surprised there's not yet even a [[Minamoto clan]] article... Should we think about having articles for the [[Seiwa Genji]] and [[Kawachi Genji]], or just one big article for all the branches of the whole clan? I guess it's a totally moot point until we at least have an article for the clan. [[User:LordAmeth|LordAmeth]] 06:40, 23 November 2007 (PST)

:I don't know much of anything about the Minamoto clan - if these clans are offshoots of a main Minamoto clan, I guess they should have their own articles.  And I don't think it is too surprising there isn't an article yet on the Minamoto - aside from you, I and a couple other people, who would write it? :P  --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 11:36, 23 November 2007 (PST)

::Point. Well, I shall make a note to get on it. And after that, the Taira, and maybe a number of the various members of those two clans. Much more directly relevant to major themes in samurai history than the string of Okinawan kings, ne? ^_^ [[User:LordAmeth|LordAmeth]] 17:10, 24 November 2007 (PST)

:::Thanks for the start on the clan page (I noticed your sandbox) - I have the Kamakura Jinmei Jiten, which has at least 50 Minamoto members I could add, if I can find the time. Not likely in the short term though.  --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 18:00, 24 November 2007 (PST)
