[edit] spelling of prefectures
A survey is being conducted at Wikipedia_talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related_articles)#Prefectures and macrons to determine which prefectures should have their spelling "macron-ized", per the existing manual of style. Oita has been changed already, and each of the others is current being discussed (Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Hokkaido, Hyogo, and Kochi). Please join the discussion if you wish.

[edit] Mikage?
Is Mikage a town in Hyogo Prefecture? I ask because it is allegedly the birthplace of Kano Jigoro, but it has been surprisingly difficult to confirm the existence of. I suppose that if it is a town it should be listed in this article. Thanks, Bradford44 01:08, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- It looks like Mikage was a town in Settsu Province; but, now it is just a named local area inside Kobe. ja:御影 (神戸市) is linked from Kano's Japanese article. Neier 12:58, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
