Requested move[edit]

The disambiguation page gives several meanings for "Shōwa", therefore the correct title should be "Showa", but I can't seem to move this page, even if I remove the existing redirect page at "Showa" completely.

"Shouwa" is an incorrect spelling using wapuro romaji.

Support. CES 15:03, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Agreed, "Showa" would be consistent with Japan-related Manual of Style as well[reply]
Support. JeroenHoek 17:28, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Well, it'd be kinda silly not to support my own motion…[reply]
Support. Modified Hepburn is standard for titles. — Gwalla | Talk 19:56, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Moved it. The previous Showa had no history beyond redirects, so there is no loss of useful information or GFDL-mandated attribution. — Gwalla | Talk 23:24, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody moved it back to the Unicode name. Don't know why, no reason / vote or anything like that. Returning this page to Showa. freshgavin TALK 05:13, 1 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
