Translation[edit]

Just for posterity's sake, this article was started by a translation I did. You can see it here. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 23:32, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Biography[edit]

Improper semicolon usage, fixed to a colon. Added Oxford comma to the list of his children. Sensitivity/awkward wording removal: Article originally read "...and one already deceased daughter..." and thought that sounded incredibly insensitive and also awkward. I removed the deceased part because it doesn't add to the article. :) Duswls (talk) 21:54, 6 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Two different dates of birth[edit]

So is he born on May 3rd 1947 or March 3rd 1947? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.153.28.20 (talk) 17:56, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tough one. The German and Bavarian Wikipediæ say March, while the Japanese one says May. Couldn't find any external source that definitively doesn't rely on Wikipedia, but the general consensus seems to be March. Since uniformity is probably more important in this case, I'm changing it and if anyone ever finds a reliable source that says otherwise, please correct both dates.

Takeo Ishii → Takeo Ischi – He is better known by his Germanized name. maczkopeti (talk) 12:24, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 18:05, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

But we have a consistent MOS for Japanese nationals. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:14, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We do, but there's a common latinized form of his name that is also used in English sources. Take Wladimir Klitschko for instance, whose article name has a German transliteration, rather than an English one like Vladimir Klichko. --maczkopeti (talk) 18:48, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support per the greater number of GNews/Gbook hits on '"Takeo Ischi" yodeler' vs. '"Takeo Ishii" yodeler', and his own website http://takeoischi.com. Nationality does not overrule WP:COMMONNAME. A person who is famous in the country where he actually lives, rather than his country of origin, will naturally be written about mostly by sources in the country where he lives, and those sources will tend to follow local spelling conventions. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 03:20, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
