[edit]

In English Wikipedia, should we be using Mokichi Saitō and Itō Sachio or, conversely, Saitō Mokichi and Sachio Itō? The article as it now stands is inconsistent on this matter.Tristan noir (talk) 02:38, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is that way because Itō was born prior to the Meiji Restoration and Saitō was born afterward. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 23:20, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
