Image of Imperial symbol[edit]

The Imperial mon (emblem) was added in the Notes section in 2010. In 2012, the image was removed from this and other articles about Japanese emperors -- compare here. Zenwort's edit summary is clear and reasonable --img of Imperial seal removed, this was not used before the Muromachi era

The use of this symbol is justified because this article is an important part of a grouping of articles about the emperors of Japan -- see Imperial Household Agency (Kunaichō): 崇神天皇 (10). Does this rationale provide a good enough reason for it to be restored? --Enkyo2 (talk) 15:30, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Stephen Turnbull in his 1982 book (Book of the Samurai: Warrior class of Japan) places Sujin at 200 C.E., not 97 B.C.

paucity?[edit]

In the "Legendary narrative" section in the second paragraph the following sentence appears:
"Sujin is regarded by historians as a "legendary emperor" and the paucity of material information about him makes difficult any further verification and study."
Why the use of such a rare word, what is the significance of using it instead of "scarcity"?
If there is no actual significance I suggest changing it to make the text more readable. 62.219.123.172 (talk) 09:44, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
