Talk:Nakahira Zennoshin

Categorization

Is Nakahira a commoner? Since much of the discussion seems to be about paper merchants, it would seem that he's a merchant, but he has a surname that's not a yagô (shop name)... LordAmeth 19:37, 16 June 2007 (PDT)

Commoner - I don't have a category for "commoners" yet, and don't really want that as a category, so I have to figure out what to call him/them. For now anyone not fitting under the broad range of biographical categories goes under "other historical figures". --Kitsuno 19:49, 16 June 2007 (PDT)

Yeah, having one for commoners could be bad. You could have one for Chonin. I'd suggest "Merchants and Traders" but that would likely be too specific and wouldn't incorporate many other chonin types. LordAmeth 03:10, 17 June 2007 (PDT)
