[edit] Calender
What calendar are the dates in the article given in? Obviously not BC/BCE, else his death occurred before his birth. GeeJo (t)⁄(c) • 12:52, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] article title: move it?
I don't know, but the guy's name, it seems, is not Layman. Should this article be moved to Páng Jūshì or Páng Yùn? (without the stuff on top of the vocals, perhaps?)Feureau 14:28, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
- Páng Jūshì is the most common name that this figure is known by in China and Chinese (as well as Japanese texts). The common translation for his name with English translators, then, is "Layman Pang" ("Layman" being a literal translation of "Jūshì"). That said, I think that more common English-language (as well as Wikipedia) standards of organization would put him under "Pang Yun"--Pang having been his surname and Yun being his given name.
