Showa Emperor hi Taku i wrote down some ideas about the renaming may i ask you why you are so adamantly against a renaming i mean is the idea so terrible i don t really understand monarchs are named a certain way i mean look at Taisho Emperor for example so why would the other two emperors Hirohito and Akihito be an exception it doesn t make sense a user who would not be familiar with these figures using wikipedia for the first time would not understand what he is beeing confronted with to rename the article would help the average user in navigating don t you think of course us experts we know who and what they were but try to put yourself in a situation where someone like in school is doing a research for the first time and wikipedia is supposed to be everyone and not just experts right if you having something against Hirohito himself and don t like him beeing called emperor i understand i am not fan of this person myself trust me however he was what he was the Emperor of Japan this simple fact needs to be reflected in the naming of the article regardless of what we personally thought of him 29 June 2005 12 20 UTC
