[edit] "Code of Taiho" or "Taiho Code"?

I've always known it as the "Taiho Code", not the "Code of Taiho". A Google search using "Taiho Code" (with quotes for exact phrase search) turns up 517 results, while "Code of Taiho" turns up only 67 results, some of them Wikipedia-related. Also, "Code of Taiho" sounds awkward. I would like to propose having "Code of Taiho" redirect to "Taiho Code", rather than vice-versa.

[edit] Requested move

Code of Taihō → Taihō Code – per: 1. Taihō Code used more often. 2. Code of Taihō sounds awkward.

  • Support For reasons mentioned above.--Sir Edgar 04:53, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Support sounds ok, and article could also start by Taiho code or Taiho Ritsuryo Tensaibuta 05:45, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. As the one who started this article and, I think, contributed the most, I am surprised to discover that all my books refer to either "Taiho Code" or "Taiho ritsuryo" and not The Code of Taiho. I wonder where I got that from. LordAmeth 10:05, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Results of Google Scholar and Google Books agree Taiho Code is more common. --Kusunose 10:37, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Here we go again - Korean influence on early Japan

Yes, we Wikipedians are encouraged to be bold. But as this issue of Korean influence on early Japan has been a hot topic on a number of different pages recently, some of them exploding into full-on edit wars, I am hoping that we can discuss this here, and hopefully reach some sort of compromise. As for my opinion, I acknowledge the importance of Korean cultural and political influences on the Yamato state. And I think that some mention of this is interesting to include in the article, provided it is accurate and relevant, even if it is not 100% necessary to an understanding of the topic.

However, Korea is not related to the approval of TaihoCode. Japan valued obtaining information from China directly. --Orchis29 (talk) 17:46, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
