I think (after Google, e.g. [1]) that Yosa Buson's name is in the Japanese order, so his surname is Yosa, so he should be referred to in the article as "Yosa", not as "Buson". What do you think? -- Adam78 23:38, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
Blank Verse is right--it's customary to refer to him as Buson. He didn't even use the name Yosa until relatively late in life. Some source texts claim that his surname was Taniguchi, and late 19th and early 20th century publications often refer to him as Taniguchi Buson. Modern scholars, however, call him Yosa Buson, and Buson when using only one name. Kyoho 16:18, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
With this edit Buson's death date has been changed from December 25, 1783 to January 17, 1784, without explanation (apart from the edit summary "err. date"). 1783 is supported by Haruo Shirane (Early Modern Japanese Literature, 2008), Robin D. Gill (The Fifth Season, 2007), Cheryl Crowley (Haikai Poet Yosa Buson and the Bashō Revival, 2007) among other heavyweights, so I am reverting. If there is credible conflicting evidence, then let's discuss that here with a view to achieving consensus. -- gråb whåt you cån ( talk) 11:06, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
There is a very nice article on Buson in russian, of excellent quality. Somebody should commission a translation from some russian speaking friend! 112.80.243.178 ( talk) 16:22, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
