Talk:Ashikaga shogunate

MILHIST B-class checklist
This article's main flaw is sourcing. Improve that and perhaps flesh out the sections some, and it should have no problem passing B-class criteria. Parsecboy (talk) 20:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Foreign relations
I did add "Category:Edo period" to an article about a Joseon diplomat who traveled to Japan during the years of the Tokugawa shogunate. It was wrong in the context of Yeo Ui-son (Yǒ ǔi-gye) who lived at the beginning of the 15th century. This mistake produced an apples and oranges response; but perhaps the following has a relevant and constructive aspect :

Caspian blue proposed the following hypothetical: "...if I add Category:Joseon Dynasty to the article of Ashikaga shogunate, how long do you think it would last? I bet it be removed just in a minute to a day."

In response, I posted the following:
 * Caspian blue -- yes. As you suggested, I did add add Category:Joseon Dynasty to the article about the Ashikaga shogunate. Also, I did edit this article by adding a "Foreign relations" sub-subsection having a single sentence.


 * Foreign relations
 * The Ashikaga shogunate's foreign relations policy choices were played out in evolving relationships with the Joseon Dynasty on the Korean peninsula and in changing relationships with the Imperial Chinese court.


 * I invite you to join me in discovering how this sentence fares over the coming week? I also invite you to join me in learning how the new Joseon Dynasty category will be received? Tenmei 07:38, 13 October 2009

The question becomes interesting. What next? --Tenmei (talk) 07:57, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Tributary state status
The citations given for this do not support the statement that Japan was a tributary state of Ming China in this period. It is true that tribute envoys were despatched from Japan from 1401 onward -- though there were intermittent suspensions of relations with China e.g. from 1411 to 1432. It is not clear to me that this makes Japan a tributary state, which does not appear to be a term used in the sources given. Moreover, given that after around 1450 the Bakufu was no longer taking a direct interest in the trade with China, the term seems inappropriate anyway. I have therefore removed the note from the article, though I'm open to putting it back if it's noted more accurately / adequately supported by sources. — Nizolan  (talk) 04:45, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
