    &gt;The tradition of lovers ending their lives together, called shinjū<p>Lover suicides we&#x27;re not a tradition.

      Wiki suggests otherwise: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Shinjū" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Shinjū</a>

      I never heard of it before today so know nothing about it. Wikipedia has an extensive discussion of it, <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Shinj%C5%AB" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Shinj%C5%AB</a>.<p>Is this page false with bad references maybe, or was it just a literary tradition and not happening in the real world?
