Affair

I put the affair allegations back in after finding Far Eastern Economic Review article which detailed the allegations. The aggegations were widely reported in the news in Japan at the time. Please see the article which largely denies the affair. --Timtak (talk) 23:47, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Removal of trivia

Return inappropriate revert by 61.203.128.130 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)[1] on 2010-05-17T20:47:04. The research by WHOIS indicates that 61.203.128.130 was sent out from Japan.--A Japanologist (talk) 10:52, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Although 61.203.128.130 should have explained themselves, he/she is correct that this information does not belong on Wikipedia. This is an encyclopedia, not a repository for trivia. Also, please review WP:NOT#NEWS. Khoikhoi 02:02, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
The assertion of Mori was public comment in the Diet. Her remark
'Kokkai no Inemuri oh (国会の居眠り王, Sleeping King in the House of Representatives)at westernize. She said Kan kara min (官から民, Transfer of operations and authority from the government to the private sector) ,motto of the Democratic Party of Japan, means Kan kara min (菅から眠, from Kan to oscitation). (In Japanese Kan (, the government) and Kan (, Kan (family name)) ,Min (, private) and Min (, oscitation) are homophenes.)
was more likely written in conference minutes, then it was count for preservation.-A Japanologist (talk) 21:02, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
Every public comment made in the Diet is recorded in the minutes. That does not mean we have to include such (poorly worded) trivial exchanges in this Wikipedia article. --DAJF (talk) 23:54, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Slow down?

He's not PM yet is he? All we know is that he has been elected by the party, with formal appointment to follow.--Mkativerata (talk) 04:02, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Right. Naoto Kan has become a new leader of his party (DPJ), was designated to be Japan's Prime Minister by the Diet, and is still Prime Minister-elect as of 11:00 UTC (= 20:00 JST), 4 June 2010.
Search news reports (like this one of MDN) for "Emperor" and you will find a good explanation on when a new cabinet will be officially launched. The Constitution of Japan has related articles: Article 6, Article 67, Article 70 and Article 71.

Go

How good is he at go?andycjp (talk) 05:16, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Religion

What evidence is there that his religion is Buddhism? I have read the two sources listed and remain unconvinced. Because of the syncretic and irreligious character of most Japanese, and also that it appears to have been a political stunt, I don't think the fact that he went on a pilgrimage is enough evidence. My Japanese is far from perfect but I could not find any indication as to his religion on his official website or on the Japanese Wikipedia. Some limited google searching turned up a quote where he humorously disputes being called an enemy of Buddhism. 114.180.224.152 (talk) 17:18, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

I've decided to "be bold" and remove it from the infobox. 121.115.225.89 (talk) 04:39, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

And now his religion is added back in as Nichiren-shu with no source, no mention in the body, and no mention in the Japanese version. 210.225.125.66 (talk) 11:44, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Resignation

Even though he announced his resignation as party president today (August 26), however he is STILL the Prime Minister of Japan until August 29, when a new party president is selected. The ruling party's president then is usually also defacto elected as the Prime Minister of Japan. The post of Prime Minister cannot be vacant. Limitedexpresstrain (talk) 07:30, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Post Prime Ministership - „Courage beim Atomausstieg”?

JAPANTODAY reports that Kan 31-april-2016 received an award „Courage beim Atomausstieg”. http://www.japantoday.com/category/politics/view/germany-gives-ex-pm-kan-award-for-efforts-to-phase-out-nuclear-power-in-japan Would this come under Post Prime Ministership? --Manorainjan (talk) 22:33, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Yes, it can be added there, but you have to be careful of the wording. Despite the title of the article you have linked to, I don't think it was "Germany" that gave him the award. The Sankei Shimbun in their report says that it was "the City of Frankfurt and others" who gave him the award, plus it was a former government minister that gave a speech, not the current one. So we can't describe it as some sort of national award "from Germany". AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 06:27, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
