Talk:Konoe family

Prefix index
How useful is this -- Special:Prefixindex/Konoe? Th2 link was removed from the "See also" section. --Enkyo2 (talk) 15:17, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Because it lists people with the surname Konoe? -- 76.65.128.222 (talk) 21:29, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * At the bottom of the page, please notice that Category:Konoe family provides a similar list. However, the decision-making about who to include -- or not include -- in this category is not made indiscriminately.  Our categorization process requires a specific choice which is made based on an editor's analysis of the available information. Compare Special:Prefixindex/Sakai with Category:Sakai clan; and consider the plausible question asked here.  The slight difference between the two list compilation strategies produces a meaningful consequence, does it not? --Enkyo2 (talk) 12:31, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Konoe clan → Konoe family – per suggestion of Hijiri88 here, the other articles about the the Five Regent Houses, also known as the go-sekke branches of the Fujiwara clan, name been re-named "family" rather than "clan". See Takatsukasa family, Kujō family, Ichijō family and Nijō family. Compare List of Kuge families. This article name should be changed as well, consistent with Papinot and Louis-Frédéric, which are the cited sources in these related articles. Alternately, if there is consensus to keep Konoe clan, then perhaps the other go-sekke articles should also use the term clan. Note previous name changing move here in 2004.

 * Support for same reason I gave in the diff above, and also for the fact that this family includes at least one super-notable modern figure and "clan" just seems inappropriate. Hijiri 88 ( 聖やや ) 11:21, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Although I don't agree that this or any other article should base its naming on dodgy translations of long-dead Frenchmen. Hijiri 88 ( 聖やや ) 14:11, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
