Naming order

[edit]

@CurryTime7-24: Hello! It's really cool to see articles on musical prodigies being created!

Anyhow, as per Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Japan-related_articles#Modern_names, the guidance states that if one "most commonly used name" cannot be determined for a Japanese person, the first priority would be the "the form personally or professionally used by the person". If http://www.takahiro-sonoda.com/e_bio.html is the official website, would this mean "Takahiro Sonoda" would be the form he professionally used? If so, I believe this means the article should use the western naming order. WhisperToMe (talk) 04:03, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also it seems all of the sources use "Takahiro Sonoda", so this name order is more appropriate for this article. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:47, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, clearly this issue means a lot to you. So you know what to do... —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 00:16, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
