[edit] Known recipients

  • George Edward Gauntlett (Japanese name Ganto Tadashi)

There is no reference cited for this man, and yet his name appears as a recipient of more than one honor -- 1st grade, 2nd grade, AND 3rd grade ....? I have prudently removed his name temporarily until these curious discrepancies can be resolved by someone more knowledgeable than me. Ooperhoofd 01:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Moving this page?

Every source I've encountered, including the Japanese Prime Minister's Decoration Bureau's English-language sub-page, identifies this award in terms of a singular noun -- Order of the Sacred Treasure, not Order of the Sacred Treasures ...? If it would be perceived as an improvement, I would be willing to do the work involved in correcting this trivial error.

Is there is general agreement/disagreement with moving or re-naming this page from Order of the Sacred Treasures to Order of the Sacred Treasure? Perhaps the current spelling re-direct is really all that's needed. --Ooperhoofd 18:28, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

The move seemed too easy, but in case there are any unanticipated problems, I'm posting this brief follow-up:
Move page
