Fixing Japanese name issues

I will make the following corrections to a few Japanese actor pages:

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=3150
'Kobayashi Keiju'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=6427
'Murakawa Toru'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=87196
'Shibaki Yuko'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90253
'Watanabe Shin'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90254
'Adachi Eizaburo'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90482
The reading is correct, but it should probably be changed to 'Saijo Yasuhiko' if we plan to stick to the family-name-first format.

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90483
'Hanabusa Yuriko'

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90484
'Miki Norihei' (the Japanese name given is his birth name, Tadashi (and not 'Noriko') Tanuma, and so will also be changed)


Other related issues:

The Japanese name given belongs to actor Naoyoshi (Naohei) Ozawa, but the dates and picture are of the above-mentioned Keiju Kobayashi. There is no 'Kobayashi Katsuki' that I know of.

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=64488
http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=90480
Duplicates, and 'Kuji Asami' is correct. The Japanese name given on the 'Kasu Asami' page is her birth name, Yoshiko Moriyama, under which she doesn't seem to have been credited in films.

According to Japanese Wikipedia, Kobayashi Katsuki is an alias of Ozawa Naohei.

I don't see that name anywhere on there. Are you sure you have the right page? https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B0%8F ... 4%E5%B9%B3

Sorry, I think I screwed up.

I just fixed this page: http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=8005
and saw a strange note in the editor's notes field. What does it mean? Should I remove it?

"(unknown) -yuki Sachiko - Credit was displayed like this prior to 07/29/2006."

Yes. Remove it.
