Merger idea
editI have suggested that Sado Island be merged into this article because the city consists of the entire island. Hence geography, history, etc. overlaps.—Tokek 15:46, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
Pictures
editIt would be nice and appropriate to have some mention of the Sado Okesa folksong (and dancers), the famous circular tub boats of Sado, and perhaps the Edo gold mines with pictures, all of which are symbolic of Sado. Any photo sources? Doc Rock 15:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Sado's symbol flower is incorrect. It should be "Daylily". Its Japanese name is "kanzo" and it writes 萱草, not 甘草. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ykinflorenceky (talk • contribs) 14:43, August 26, 2007 (UTC)
Split template
editI removed the newly place split template as it was never proposed, brought up or mentioned anywhere (and it was messing up the infobox for some unexplained reason). What do you think should be split off from the current article? --TorsodogTalk 05:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
Change to Sado Island recommended
editIt seems to me a basic category error to subsume 'Sado Island' into the entry on Sado. Surely Sado Island should be the main page, perhaps with a redirect from 'Sado city'. Sado Island contains but is not contained by Sado city, which is merely a recent administrative term for what is still basically a rural island of disparate towns and villages.
Duplicate information with Sado Island article
editToday a significant part of this article contains information completely duplicated with the Sado Island article.
There's already been twice a discussion subject opened to suggest a merger but I think as the Japanese wikipedia and many other languages have both articles, it wouldn't be very convenient.
So instead the best solution for me would be strict rules about which information should be here, and which in the Sado city article, to avoid duplicates. I'm allowing a bit of time to think it over, but after that I'll move all historical information to the Sado Island article, with a reference link. Jmdwp (talk) 21:23, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
