This entry (Shō Shō (unknown), Crown Princess of Shō Ten) which I have removed here for discussing/confirmation appears confusing. AFAIK, Shō Shō was the son of Shō Ten, and was buried in Tokyo. On another Wikipedia language's page, the entry translated to Crown Prince, and another had Sho Ten's wife by another name, so am slightly confused...

Then that only re-confirms my suspicions and confusion about this entry then, and adds weight to its current removal. If there are sources available from which the list was drawn, perhaps they should be consulted and rechecked. In the case of Sho Ten's wife being called Sho Sho (hence "Crown Princess" as cited), and his son also being called Sho Sho as well, then perhaps a rewording of the entry to "Crown Princess (wife) of Shō Ten" may work. It is also possible she pre-deceased her husband, still allowing him to be the last interred there. Jabberjawjapan (talk) 10:53, 25 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
The name reads, I am told, as "wife of sho ten". There has to be some reason she is last on the list - I would assume she might have been the last interred, but her husband was the last who was formally buried (with traditional rites). Anyway, she is back in the list - feel free to adjust if you feel necessary. Jabberjawjapan (talk) 13:24, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
