Authenticity check

Authenticity check: A search reveals that the phrase "regarded by many" appears in the text. Is the phrase a symptom of a dubious statement? Could a source be quoted instead? Perhaps the "many" could be identified? Might text be edited to more genuinely reflect specific facts?

Wetman

Name of Manor

The name of the manor in the film isn't Wakasa Manor; that's the noblewoman's personal name. I can't recall the name of the manor itself just now, but I'll try to remember to check it tomorrow. In the meantime, if I forget, someone else may know what to correct it to. 24.145.132.195 (talk) 05:40, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possible hoax edit

This edit contains a false reference to "May Tossier". I cannot locate such a person. The other contents of the edit may also be a clever hoax. Can anyone check this against the Wakeman/McDonald books? Thanks. JoshuSasori (talk) 02:39, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This .edu site seems to back up most of what's in that edit. Ribbet32 (talk) 03:02, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh thanks, May Tossier was meant to be Max Tessier. I will check the rest of that later. JoshuSasori (talk) 11:08, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move to Ugetsu

Ugetsu (film)Ugetsu – This is the primary topic for "ugetsu". JoshuSasori (talk) 02:23, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support This move seems to have been done just out of boredom. "Ugetsu" primarily refers to the film and the book is primarily called "Tales of Moonlight and Rain." Ribbet32 (talk) 03:00, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. This move should be reverted per WP:BRD. The film is way more notable than the book, which isn't normally called Ugetsu anyway, at least not in English. Here is the DVD version of the film currently sold in the North American market, just in case anyone wants to confirm the title. Kauffner (talk) 10:25, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Why is the film "way more notable than the book"? The film is based on the book, it mentions this fact in its opening credits, it has not the subject of centuries of literary studies like the book has, etc., etc. I agree that the book is not usually referred to simply as Ugetsu, but this is a possible abbreviation of the book's title, and the book is CLEARLY more noteworthy than the film. elvenscout742 (talk) 13:13, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
