Note about disambig[edit]

Since Nakai redirects here, we should make sure all the nakais in wikipedia are findable from this page. There are only 2 I know of so far; if there's a third, we should build a disambig page. --Alvestrand 09:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's several; Nakai is now a disambig - MPF 13:31, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"竹之進"[edit]

Is this a conversion mistake or a deliberate pun/pseudonym Nakai himself used? If it's the latter, it definitely merits mention, but if it's the latter ... well, the above isn't the only one to make the mistake.[1][2] It's possible that Japanese writers discussing Nakai in print have their keyboards' conversion biased in favour of 竹 over 猛, which is an interesting bit of information if anyone can locate a source that specifically verifies it.
