Sorry this page is so crappy... I've run out of time for today to work on it... Jeshii 07:14, Jan 24, 2005 (UTC)

I have no idea when I can omit suffixes of Japanese names. I replaced 'peak of' with 'mt.' because I think the former is not common, but the distinction between 山 and 岳 was lost. I commented out the mention of Ainu language, because all mountains of Hokkaido may be derived from Ainu language except Taisetsu. Pitan 14:00, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Page Reform, Restructuring and Completion

edit

I would like to recategorise some of the regions for this page if no-one minds...am thinking of dividing the page into:

-Hokkaido -Tohoku -Kanto -Chubu -Kansai -Chugoku -Shikoku -Kyushu

The current grouping making Chugoku, Shikoku and Kyushu into one generic area called "Western Japan" is far too general.

I will also try and complete the list in it's entirity including making pages for every single mountain on the page. Any support, questions or queries would be appreciated... Paulman (talk) 04:17, 8 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Correct?

edit

In the corresponding Japanese article, Mount Amakazari is in Chūbu region (not Kantō region) and Mount Takatsuma is in Tōhoku region / 上信越 (North Japan Sea region?) not in Kantō region. Who is right? bamse (talk) 19:46, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Moved both Mountains to the correct region. bamse (talk) 23:57, 8 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Minimum 1.500m ?

edit

The sentence "excluding mountains with an altitude of less than 1,500 m (4,921 ft)." in the paragraph "History" conflicts with the fact that at least Tsukuba and Kaimon are much lower. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tim2007viatge (talkcontribs) 13:04, 12 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yes, you are right. The inclusion policy was later stated by the author in a presentation (cf. a JAWP remark), but there are always exceptions. Fukuda also made remarks on some omissions, like Mount Hiei, which falls on all three criteria but too much lower than 1,500, his general altitude inclusion criteria. --Aphaia (talk) 12:01, 27 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
