- ... that the former Imperial Square of Strasbourg is decorated with ginkgos that were presented by the Emperor of Japan to the Emperor of Germany?

hook is interesting, but while sourced, it's not in the article. Hook has to be in the article as well. Moreover, but I need confirmation here, I'm not sure the "is planted with" is grammatically correct (but this is a second issue to the first). --Elisa.rolle (talk) 01:03, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
- Template:Ping, thank you for reviewing the article but have you read it? The hook is in the article, it says: "The square was planted with ginkgo bilobas, which were presented by Emperor Meiji to his German counterpart [either William I or William II, depending of the source]; those trees still stand today." (end of second paragraph of section Description and history). Edelseider (talk) 07:08, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
the wikilink Emperor of Japan and Emperor of Germany are not in the article, in the article there is "Emperor Meiji" and "German counterpart". If is the same that people have to click on the wikilink to know that Emperor Meiji is the emperor of Japan, than fine for me. Elisa.rolle (talk) 08:29, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you! And what an Emperor he was, surely one of the most important in the history of Japan. No one could or will confuse him with somebody else.Edelseider (talk) 08:57, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
