I'm kind of amazed that there are so many basic topics that are not covered extensively. I do *not* mean that as a criticism, it's just surprising. I am more than happy to get started on some of these "big scope" articles, and hope that others will join in. It's actually kind of nice, for though there are niches on Wikipedia that are almost entirely untouched (the vast majority of work on ukiyoe, kabuki, and certain other Japanese topics are, I think, almost entirely done by me), I never got to do work on the real big topics. Here goes. LordAmeth 04:30, 16 June 2007 (PDT)

Categories

I've temporarily removed some of the categories you created until there are enough articles to give me an idea how best to categorize them. Since there are still a lot of potential categories without necessarily any articles to really fit into them, I'm sort of trying to stay methodical. Also, is the "royalty" category best described as "foreign"? If so, we should probably note that in the description to give it a clear differentiation from "emperors", "imperial family", etc. - but I guess that during the Kofun era in Japan there are some people who could be considered "royalty" too - I'll ask User:Nagaeyari when he gets back, he is the resident expert scholar on ancient Japan. --Kitsuno 20:19, 16 June 2007 (PDT)

Also, as an aside, since there are on average between 0-30 edits done to the wiki a day (unlike wikipedia), it is pretty useful to check Special:Recentchanges each time you log in to see what things are being worked on. Basically, if you keep an eye on any format correction I make to your articles, you should pick up the "accepted formatting" pretty quick. --Kitsuno 22:52, 16 June 2007 (PDT)

Emperor Go-Hanazono

Is the birth date for Emperor Go-Hanazono the lunar date or the western date? --Kitsuno 17:56, 17 June 2007 (PDT)
