→Formal name
::I know that the formal names are usually "Taira no something", "Fujiwara no something", "Minamoto no something"...etc. Serizawa Kamo's formal name was ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' and his full name was ''Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto''. Since some people get confused and mistake ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' for his former name or his alias, I've added his full name. [[User:Seven|Seven]] 20:12, 1 February 2007 (PST)

:If the "Formal name" is listed as such (and it was uncommon to call someone Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto") than it probably should go in the data section on the top. Japanese naming conventions are just plain outright confusing with childhood names, adult names, buddhist names, this name, that name, so I don't think there is any reason to treat the formal name any differently (i.e. put it in a "formal name" section in the top data section.) We've been using the "other names" as a catch all, but eventually I want to seperate out the different types of other names and list them individually on the data section, so this is a good way to start that. Basically, like the dates and uruu month issue, we'll just need an article and/or a link to explain it. Keeping everything standard and having links to explanations are better than trying to explain something in every article. So I think we should treat it the way we do the uruu months, just put them in as "usual", and when we get an article/description for the concept of "formal names", I'll link "formal name" to the applicable article. Seems the best way to handle it to me. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:28, 1 February 2007 (PST)
