Thanks for your excellent work on this much-needed article. I am curious about a few minor points, though.
*Why is no one listed with the "no" that is generally seen as standard in names of this period? e.g. Minamoto no Tokiwa, Fujiwara no Kamatari, Sugawara no Michizane.
*You mention the Ako Affair, which I have always seen as referring to the Chushingura (the 47 Ronin story) - Google "Ako Affair" and you'll see. Was this Fujiwara-related event also called the Ako affair, or is there a mixup somewhere?
*Should we stick to using terms such as "Prime Minister" which are only rough translations, or should we call the offices by their actual names?
Thanks much. [[User:LordAmeth|LordAmeth]] 18:09, 26 November 2007 (PST)
