[edit] Flag

There was no People's Republic of China when Go Seigen was born. The Chinese flag should probably be changed.--Jusjih 08:37, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

I have found the Chinese flag used when he was born. Please do not change to current ROC or PRC flag as neither was used when he was born.--Jusjih 18:21, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reverts

To User:By78. You have put back large changes to the page, without a single edit comment, or any discussion here. This is unacceptable. What is more, you have not respected improvements made to the page. Charles Matthews 16:25, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

I added the photo of Go Seigen (then in his 80s) I am pretty sure that that photo is public domain. I am not very good at inserting photos so if anybody can improve on the layout please do so. SmokeyTheCat 15:35, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Error?

Go lost just one jubango, and that was against Fujisawa Hosai. However, the match was played with Fujisawa taking the josen handicap throughout, and Fujisawa only managed to win with a score of 6 to 4. Some ten years later, Go Seigen took revenge on Fujisawa by beating him in two consecutive jubango with lopsided scores of 7-2 and 5-1 respectively.

Why would a jubango continue after someone had won 6 games? I believe this should be 6-2, though I am not familiar with Seigen's career to an extent that I can state it was 6-2. But it defies the definition of jubango to continue after someone has won more than half the prescribed game number, which is 10. --70.131.54.157 (talk) 03:58, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
