(comment)	石川嘉延 【いしかわよしのぶ】 Ishikawayo Shinobu (1940.11-) (h)
The English rendering of this name is incorrect. I believe it should be "Ishikawa Yoshinobu"

(comment)	The word is in EDICT as 琴座, but こと座 seems to be the more common spelling, at least online (107,000 vs. 8,890 Google hits, and the latter includes Chinese too). The Japanese Wikipedia prefers こと座 (see the references section), as does the Microsoft IME in Windows (which could explain the Google results too). In any case こと座 should be added as an alternative headword.
