== What is tanka prose? == |
|
|
|
|
|
This article contains no references to respectable sources on Japanese literature. When I first saw the term "tanka prose" (of course on ]) I assumed it was some obscure translation of the term ''Uta Monogatari'' (歌物語). But the page doesn't mention the correct Japanese term once, and inaccurately groups the ''Tosa Diary'' in too. All of the sources seem to be non-academic in nature, and the authors are apparently non-notable professional poets ('''not''' Japanese scholars), and different online sources brought up by Googling their names indicated a general lack of knowledge about Japanese language and literary history ( spells ]'s name as ''Narihara'', and makes a bizarre, unsourced claim that he and ] used the phrase ''one thousand times''). |

Can we delete this page or rename it to ] and include some small reference to this terminology and how inadequate it is? |

:I'm completely overhauling this article. The previous fancruft was completely wrong and poorly written. The sources cited were apparently all bogus, so I deleted them and replaced them with some nice Keene. If anyone wants to reinstate anything that I have removed, please discuss it here or on my Talk page. ] (]) 16:04, 12 September 2012 (UTC) |
