Talk:Taishō era

message: This page needs a redirect from the romaji spelling "Taishou," in case users search for the period without using a macron spelling. All other eras that I've checked have similar redirects ("shouwa" to the macroned version, for example), but if you input "taishou period" to the search box at the moment, you don't get this page as a result. I don't know how to do this, so I'm asking someone else to make the redirect.

Someone's been putting floated DIVs in some history articles with a list of key events. Having a clear list of key points is good -- but the HTML bloat in the source required to produce the float is not worth it in my opinion (see my recent mailing list post on the matter). I've tried an alternative at Taisho period. What do people think? "In Detail" is a really yucky heading, so if anyone can think of better ... please do! -- Tarquin 15:35, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: That someone is me. Despite what I have been saying, now I complately concur with you. What particularly I like is that if a list of key events sits in a section, it is easy to edit that second with a new Wikipedia editing feature. -- Taku 17:09, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)

message: The article states that Japan was largely unaffected by the Great Depression and that exports grew.  There needs to be some citations here because, as I understand it, Japan was suffering severe balance of trade issues following the collapse of the worldwide silk trade.  Edward S. Miller gives this good treatment in "Bankrupting the Enemy."  Also, the lack of customers overseas and a lack of supply of raw materials from overseas suppliers, including, finally, oil, was a major cause for Japanese aggression in Asia throughout the 1930s which could not be explained by a favorable trade environment.  All of this Great Depression talk is outside the timeline of Taisho rule anyway.  Furthermore, any discussion of the economy of Japan in the 20s (and 30s) should include the rice riots and declining food supplies in Japan proper.
For a modern Japan course I need to edit an article I would like to source some of the information within this article. I also need to post a bibliography of some of the credible sources I have found.

message: Not by coincidence, Taishō year numbering just happens to be the same that of the Juche calendar of North Korea, and the Minguo calendar of the Republic of China (Taiwan).
"Just happens to be" implies coincidence, but the first clause explicitly says this is not by coincidence. I'd correct this myself, but I'm not sure which is correct. If it isn't a coincidence, there should be some explanation of what the connection is.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:6580:23E0:2500:F4BD:16FD:49A4:57D2 (talk) 06:46, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure how to appropriately do this, since I'm not an editor.  However, the end of this period is represented in the Miyazaki film "The Wind Rises," as the protagonist is born right at its end ( 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wind_Rises ) and is apparently the setting for the anime "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demon_Slayer:_Kimetsu_no_Yaiba ).  Should there be some kind of cross-referencing going here, for those curious about the period because of the aforementioned animations, and/or for those who find the article out of curiosity and want to see some fiction based on this period?  Just throwing it out there. 64.188.186.51 (talk) 19:18, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
