Talk:Andrianampoinimerina

message: 1.I have a feeling that Laidler's book may not get the details right... The family tree (one of the references) claims that Andriamiaramanjaka was not a king of Ambohimanga - instead it gives Andrianjafy as his predecessor as King of Ambohimanga. Andrianjafy is apparently the same person who Laidler has conspiring against Andrianampoinimerina. Doesn't make sense. In short, I'm unsure how Andrianampoinimerina become the king of Ambohimanga and what/whom/when he might have inhereted. I have followed and cited Laidler here, as it's my only reasonably good source, even though it only spends few pages for the early rulers.
2.I suppose technically there should also be redirect from Andrianampoinimerinandriantsimitoviaminandriampanjaka to Andrianampoinimerina.  Um, right...
3.Another problem is what exactly these early Merina monarchs were ruling over - what they should be called? Kings of Madagascar? Merina? Ambohimanga? Naming of the Merina monarch articles is not consistent now, and apparently some of the other tribes had kings, too, even after the French conquest. Sadalmelik 21:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

He's generally considered the most important king in the history of Madagascar, so this seems like a no brainer.

message: ...needs to be clarified. The name refers to the Yanmen Pass, which had important fortifications on the Great Wall which were the scene of other important battles between the Chinese and the Eurasian nomads, but was also the name of the Yanmen Commandery/Prefecture/Circuit/etc. which had various seats. It was at Shuozhou for a while, but that was known as Mayi at the time and presumably isn't what was meant here. Victor Xiong's book on medieval Chinese administrative divisions might clear that up. — LlywelynII 07:21, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Apart from the obvious style problem (no quotes on song names), the section doesn't explain whether these songs were covered on SFK recordings, and if so, which ones. If they are, or have been, played only at concerts, it either needs a reliable source or should be deleted as original research.

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: I don't know whether this fraternity wants to say (for their own reasons) that the cross in their coat of arms is a maltese cross, but it obviously isn't.
It is a Cross pattée. One just has to follow the link provided within the article itself to see that a maltese cross "is an eight-pointed cross having the form of four "V"-shaped elements". This is clearly not the case here. This is a Cross pattée "with triangular arms which come close to filling the square" (see relevant Wikipedia article).

:It did, during the Momoyama/Muromachi eras, via the uchi-gatana.  Jintachi (using the description given here) is not referred to anywhere in about 75 books on Japanese swords that I own.  I've only seen it used in ebay ads.  Jintachi (no) koshirae is the style of mounting (not a blade) for a tachi that predates (and overlaps with) katana.  It does NOT involve a reverse bend to the tsuka; that's anime and wall-hanger nonsense (strongly promoted by cheap wallhanger makers), similar to the reverse-katana a-historical nonsense.

Although the Popular Culture section is useful, it is even less bound to a cultural context than the weapon's name. So, the primary entry for this item should be either the Indonesian term for the weapon or else a term that is clearly in predominant use in popular culture.
