Merger[edit]

I recommend it. After all, the opening paragraph of the Shakōkidogū article says it all:It is so well known that when most Japanese hear the term "dogū," this is the image that comes to mind.--ip.address.conflict (talk) 03:46, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please merge ASAP. And can editors please keep this and the other page on their watchlists to prevent the utter crap edits that I just removed from the other page. Dogu is not the video game or part of the useless American and Japanese modern. 74.12.76.223 (talk) 21:35, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merger completed. I left the more controversial/citation needed sections intact from the original page in the hopes that someone might find the citations to these or agree that they need to go.--ip.address.conflict (talk) 18:34, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

off-topic
Did anyone else notice that this is featured as a Digimon evolution sometime? It's one of those fused digimon, I think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.134.35.170 (talk) 21:01, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Grammatical treatment of topic[edit]

The article seems to be written as though the write believe dogū is a plural noun, but since Japanese does not have grammatical number, it can't be. I've assumed it is OK to use the word unchanged in English as either singular or plural. Imaginatorium (talk) 09:45, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
