Editing: Double Names

posts: 708
I didn't want to put this in the Editor's Only section, because it affects everyone who edits the TakaWiki.

There are some actresses with names which are exactly the same spelled out in Romanji, and even some exactly the same in kanji, though that seems to have stopped over 50 years ago. Anyway, I've just added Ai Youko (1993) with the convention of adding her class year to her name to make her page label, so that the other Ai Youko, if we ever add her, can have a seperate page. Check out the link and you'll see what I mean.

Does this make sense to everyone? It'll be a pain for cross-linking, since it means we can't just put the name in double parentheses, so maybe add any others in the future to this thread so that we can keep track?

I wonder if it might be easier to only put the dates in the names of the earlier 'siennes. For purposes of cross-linking, I mean. It's less likely that the older 'siennes names will be used often, while, for example, the youngest Takigawa Sueko comes up quite often.

I know I always keep forgetting to format the most recent Ai Youko's name correctly when putting up cast lists and things...

Of course, thiscould lead to confussion in the future if there's another Takigawa Sueko.... XD
I've gone and linked the Takigawa Suekos as follows on the class pages, even though they don't all have their own profile pages yet.

Takigawa Sueko (1913)
Takigawa Sueko (1954)
Takigawa Sueko (1995)

This leaves the current Sueko without a date in the link.
Oh, err, what should we do about the Takigawa family? Just add dates to the eldest two ladies if they ever get pages made?

Takigawa Sueko (1913)
Takigawa Sueko (1954)
Takigawa Sueko (1995)

Quite a family tradition, though, I have to say.
Ooe Ikuno

One debuted in 1935, the other in 1960.

Hatsuki Yoshiya. She made her debut in 2003 and cannot possibly have had a role in the Hoshi Elisabeth shinko like the other Hatsuki Yoshiya, who doesn't seem to have a page yet.
