Talk:List of Japanese emperors

This list is useless for American readers. We cannot locate Hirohito by his official title/name. Please include a column for the Western term used for each emperor. I'm specifically looking for Prince Asaka, who issued the order to "Kill all captives" and was thus the main architect of the genocide against Nanjing's men (see rape of Nanking). --Ed Poor ^Talk 08:59, 18 February 2009 (EST)

Ed, I have made the changes to the modern Emperors as requested. I do not feel it necessary to change the others, prior to Emperor Meiji, as they would have been known only by their posthumous names, even to Westerners. Also, I am not sure why you would be looking for Prince Asaka Yasuhiko on this list, as he was never an Emperor, merely a member of the Oke Imperial lineage. --KotomiT^nandeyanen? 09:17, 18 February 2009 (EST)

Right, he's not an emperor (slaps forehead). I knew that.

I'm interested in my period of Japanese history. My Japanese name is えど, you know. --Ed Poor ^Talk 10:59, 21 February 2009 (EST)
