User talk:Matsukaze~enwiki

Dear all,

I edited the May 2007 version of the article on the Omotesenke article on October 28, 2007 because I found some factual errors in the Japanese readings of the names of the Omotesenke's grand tea masters (iemoto).

The 4th generation iemoto's name is Koshin (with a long vowel "o"), not Ko. The 6th generation iemoto is Genso (with a long vowel "o"), not Genno. The 7th generation iemoto is Ten'nen, not Tenzen. The 9th generation iemoto is Koshuku (with a long vowel "o"), not Koshoku. The 10th generation iemoto is Kyukosai (with long vowels "u" and "o"), not Gyukusai. The 11th generation iemoto is Zuio (with a long vowel "o"), not Suio. The 14th generation (i.e., the current) iemoto is symply called Sosa ("with a long vowel "o"), not Soshu (with a long vowel "o"). Soshu is the inherited name of the iemotos of the Mushanokojisenke.

Giving the 2nd column a title of "Personal Name" is completely wrong. Similarly, the "saigo" (with a long vowel "o") of the generations of iemotos listed in the 4th column are NOT "Tea names." I consulted the Northern California Omotesenke Domonkai, which in turn consulted the headquarters of the Omotosenke in Kyoto, Japan, regarding all these corrections. They asked me to remove the wrong headings of "Personal name" (2nd column) and "Tea name" (4th column) from the table, in addition to correcting the wrong readings of the iemotos' names.

I thank those who previously contributed to the article on Omotesenke; since the table was already there, my job was easy--just to correct the wrongly pronounced names!

I also added the Omotesenke's official home page, for those who would like in-depth knowledge of Cha-no-yu and more information on the Omotesenke tradition of Tea. I wish all of you a happy reading!

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Matsukaze. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Matsukaze~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:41, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
