There are 38 female high ranking yudansha listed and marked with (Ms). It is just little work to mark also the male yudansha with Mr, unless Ms means 'minor severity' or 'misleading seniority'.

I do not think it is really bad, but these little things are, where discrimination starts.

Just be aware and think about the consequences.

Best regards

Dirk (Mr)

That's the nice thing about wikis, we all get a chance to make the improvements ourselves! ;)

I heard about this. Yet I am not ready to change another one's work, unless for proven mistakes.

You see,

1st there could be a good reason and we change interactivels foreward and backward.

2nd: if the original author would have just miss a Ms for someone, and I change it to Mr, just because I do not know the gender of the first name, the other one's fault would move to my fault. Not really bad in in this case. ;)

3rd: Maybe I will do now, but the first idea is to change people's mind (hopefully to the better) and only the second goal is th get the facts changed.

Cheers Dirk
