Talk:Juromaru

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Why is this page at 'Jûromaru' instead of 'Juromaru'? According to the relevant Manual of Style, article titles should use short vowels. Even if 'Jûromaru' is the most common form, (which I doubt, since Google finds nothing for 'Jûromaru', yet 436 pages for 'Juromaru') few people will go through the trouble of typing in 'Jûromaru'.

That is not to say that long vowels should not be indicated anywhere in the article, just that they should not be in the article title. Instead, long vowels should be shown in the first reference to the topic (preferably with macrons, as it recommends in the aforementioned manual). A good example is the Kōga article.

Well, there do not seem to be any objections, so I am moving the article to 'Juromaru'. -- Josh 05:26, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)
I changed my mind, I am going to mention this on the Inuyasha talk page to try and get more input first. -- Josh 06:16, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)
I concur... -- EmperorBMA|話す 20:11, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
The matter is done with. It has been moved to "Juromaru". :) WhisperToMe 23:03, 4 Aug 2004 (UTC)
