Wikipedia rule about Kabuki actors name order ?

I'm seeing in the introductory paragraph associated with the legal name of Shido Nakamurachapter this quote^[1]

The quote has no sense since it is associated with the civil name and not the artist name, also the actor himself uses the western ordering when writing his name^[2]. I'm therefore updating text to write the actor name in the western order and add the usual notification about Japanese names ordering with the name written in Japanese.

Of course if this "ordering rule" for Kabuki actors is really something (where?) that's what we should use as a reference. I would challenge it given the behavior of the actor themselves on the ground of readability and consistency. Slb 13:20, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

^ While the stage names of all kabuki actors have retained traditional order (Surname-Givenname) on Wikipedia, birth names of those born after the Meiji Restoration are in Western order (Givenname-Surname).
