I'm fixing it.--T. Anthony 13:24, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

OMG, whoever edited this page so that she's an "Empress Regent", you're a dumbass. If she was a regent, she wouldn't be promoted to "Empress" because she was never a wife of an Emperor. If she was regent, she'd be Princess Regent.... Aye! 24.14.120.92 03:12, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Name

spotted a difference, English wikipedia says her first name was Toshiko, while German says had been Satoko.

en-wikipedia: "Before her accession to the Chrysanthemum Throne, her personal name was Toshiko (智子?).[3] Her initial pre-accession title was Isa-no-miya (以茶宮) and later Ake-no-miya (緋宮)." de-wikipedia: "Kaiserin Go-Sakuramachi (jap. 後桜町天皇, Go-Sakuramachi tennō; * 23. September 1740; † 24. Dezember 1813) war die 117. Kaiserin von Japan. Ihr Kindheitsname war Isanomiya, danach Akenomiya und ihr Eigenname Satoko (智子)." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.162.121.198 (talk) 20:03, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Picture in infobox

Re: the picture caption "Empress Go-Sakuramachi (represented here as male with goatee)": I think this needs some explanation! I have to admit I am very curious why her artist would make her have a goatee... — GypsyJiver (drop me a line) 10:57, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Name

"This 18th-century sovereign was named after her father Emperor Sakuramachi and go- (後), translates as "later"; and thus, she could be called the "Later Sakuramachi". The Japanese word go has also been translated to mean the "second one;" and in some older sources, this empress might be identified as "Sakuramachi II"."

Can somebody provide a source for that? It rather reminds me of 武后. EnTerbury (talk) 20:52, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Empress Go-Sakuramachi

Please, don't change Empress Go-Sakuramachi's coronation date into 15 September 1762, she only became empress at that time, her enthronement (coronation) occurred on 31 December 1763, look in the Japanese Wikipedia page. And it is only the opinion of some conservative historians that women's reign were temperory in japanese history - almost all monarchs in japanese history reigned quite short and then abdicated.

Wikipedia can not be used as a reliable source to source itself. If there is no reliable source on the Japanese Wikipedia page for the date then we can not put it in as fact. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 00:16, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
