Talk:Shinichi Suzuki

message: I was always under the impression that Suzuki created "Talent Education" -- there was no such name attached to schools in Japan or elsewhere before he began it.  Can the person who posted this put up any more information about it (or possibly add a citation or a place to look up more info)?  Thanks (BTW, whomever you are, thanks for contributing so much content to the body of the article).

thread_title: Shinichi Suzuki, The Man

message: I'm not quite sure why the question marks with "Suzuki Shinichi" were added in the last revision.  If the person who changed it is watching this page, could you please explain?  Otherwise, not seeing any reason for the addition, I will change it back to the way it was before.

replies: text: I ignored the question marks, assuming they meant that the home machine did not render kanji or kanas; more to say in a couple of days when I can check on a puter that displays them. Just plain Bill 05:37, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure it's the 17th, but I'll double check

thread_title: Birth dates

message: Since Shinichi Suzuki and the [Suzuki Method] are so intertwined, it's easy to place similar info on both pages.  I'm considering moving the section on Books Suzuki published about his method to the Method page, and moving the "historical notes" section on the Method page to this page...

text: The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 
The result of the debate was 'no consensus for now, though I will move if others are in favour of this move. —Nightstallion (?) 08:27, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Which info on which page? 

message: I hereby request that the closed debate of moving this page back to Shinichi Suzuki be reopened, or a new debate of this kind be started. On WP:MOS-JA, the "Romanization" section CLEARLY STATES that "Article titles should omit apostrophes after syllabic n." This is also in line with Wikipedia's use common names convention, since almost all web sites, books, and other publications show  that. To Nightstallion: according to your "correct names" logic, Lee Kuan Yew would have to be moved to Li Guangyao, Chiang Kai-shek would have to be moved to Jiang Jieshi, Tung Chee Hwa would have to be moved to Dong Jianhua, Syngman Rhee would have to be moved to I Seung-man, Park Chung Hee would have to be moved to Bak Jeong-hui, etc. In addition, the first line of this article already indicates the standard Japanese romanization, and the same is true for Junichiro Koizumi, so there is no need for Japanese articles to show n if the n form is not the most commonly used form. --TML1988 02:00, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In addition, the original Shinichi Suzuki article already has some edit history, so I think this could simply be an issue of repairing cut-and-paste moves. I'm going to put  on this page, so please read both of my statements above and give feedback. --TML1988 02:14, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, I simply forgot about this after asking at WP:MOS-JA. The history merge has been done by someone else already, and I've moved to the apostrophe-less version. —Nightstallion (?) 11:59, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I read above: On WP:MOS-JA, the "Romanization" section CLEARLY STATES that "Article titles should omit apostrophes after syllabic n." No it does not. Perhaps it did, but now it doesn't. Indeed, it says very little about these apostrophes (if apostrophe is the right word). It does however say: Article titles should use macrons as specified for body text except in cases where the macronless spelling is in common usage in English-speaking countries. (I think it would be reasonable to extrapolate this to mean Article titles should use apostrophes as specified for body text except in cases where the apostrophe-less spelling is in common usage in English-speaking countries and if so the conclusion would be the same.) -- Hoary (talk) 10:29, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Motion to reopen move debate 

message: Whether this person is better spelled Shinichi Suzuki or Shin'ichi Suzuki (see section above), there are two other people called すずきしんいち who have articles that I know of: this one and this one. Clearly this Suzuki is better known than both of those photographers together, but it seems to me that he's not hugely better known: it's not as if we're comparing one John Kennedy and all the other John Kennedies. Further, both Suzuki and Shin'ichi are popular names and one or two video-game-writing, baseball-playing or political Shin(')ichi Suzukis wouldn't be surprising. That being so, here's what I propose:
*Move this article to "Shinichi Suzuki (pedagogue)". (The word "pedagogue" may not be the best. Suggestions are welcome.)
*Make "Shin'ichi Suzuki" a disambiguation page.
*Redirect "Shinichi Suzuki", "Suzuki Shin'ichi" etc to "Shin'ichi Suzuki".
*Fix the links that now go to plain "Shinichi Suzuki".
The last part is the most tedious, but there aren't so many links and I'm willing to do the job myself. What say? -- Hoary (talk) 10:29, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Aye. —Nightstallion 16:44, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Aye, aye. I'd use "Shinichi Suzuki (violinist)" as being more accessible, understandable, generally recognizable & so forth, since that's also a big part of who he was. __Just plain Bill (talk) 22:25, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I'd much rather it were "violinist" than "pedagogue", which (with "educator") merely looks like a pretentious synonym of "teacher" -- Hoary (talk) 01:44, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It should be mentioned that Mark O’Connor, the “investigator” who claims Suzuki was a “liar” and “fraud” is selling his own string method that directly competes with the Suzuki method. That combined with the details concerning his relationship to Einstein “The Einstein”, bring O’Connor’s potentials to be questioned. 76.122.248.198 (talk) 03:12, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
