I suggest merging the four individual houses into this article. They're a bit rudimentary at the moment, and I don't think we gain by diluting content over so many pages. If nobody minds, I will do the merge in a month's time, ie. Nov 21. Reyk YO! 06:44, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Four Go houses – By convention, "
Go" is the correct capitalization for the game. The article and the redirect need to be swapped.

I came to Wikipedia to find the chronology of the 21 Honinbos. Such information has been here, under Honinbo of course, but seems lost. Unfortunately, today Honinbo redirects to "Four go houses" ("Four Go houses" would have been better, go is an extremely common English word, and common usage is to capitalize the name of the game to avoid confusion). There seems to be no content about the Honinbo House other than the single sentence "The Hon'inbō house was easily the strongest school of Go for most of its existence. It was established in 1612 and survived until 1940." The French Wikipedia has the data I was looking for (Sansa 1612-1623, Sanetsu 1630-1658, Doetsu 1658-1677, Dosaku 1677-1702, ..., Shusai 1908-1940). This list should be given under Honinbo, with links to the individual Honinbos that have their own article. There is no relation whatsoever between the Four Go Houses and the modern honorary Honinbos. That subsection belongs under Honinbo, not here. Also the data for the other houses was lost. The text still shows that there used to be more data. For example, under Yasui: "The retirement or posthumous names are listed here", while in fact nothing is listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:980:3FF4:1:B62E:99FF:FE4C:71C3 ( talk) 15:45, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

Four Go houses – Although this question was considered very recently here, with a "no consensus" conclusion, a new consensus appears to have emerged in the meantime. After discussion at
