Mitani Goho → Mitani Gohō – correct spelling. Gryffindor (talk) 17:29, 19 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 23:36, 26 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 01:07, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Of the sources available none of them use Mitani Gohō and use the current spelling. To get this changed we will need evidence that English language sources refer to this person as Mitani Gohō and so far no evidence has been provided.--67.70.24.37 (talk) 03:21, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * It doesn't change the fact that it's still misspelled, see Naitō Toyomasa as format. Gryffindor (talk) 09:13, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Oppose per points raised by 67.70.24.37. Unlike names of Wikipedia article subjects whose native languages, such as Finnish or Polish, use the Latin alphabet with diacritics and / or accents, this is a name transliterated from a non-Latin alphabet and should only be depicted with diacritics if such diacritics are part of this name's standard form as referenced in the English-speaking world. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:26, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support. WP uses diacritics where they belong, and the title needs to agree with the lead.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  09:22, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Oppose let's see what the guidelines say. WP:ROMAJI prescribes Modified Hepburn romanization in general, but also comes with an important exception for those cases where another romanization is determined to be in common usage in reliable sources. This is elaborated in a subsection on Determining common usage which cites WP:COMMONNAME and WP:ENG as basis. Therefore, 67.70.24.37 is right in arguing that we follow available sources. This can lead to article titles that use alternative, unconventional or even outright incorrect romanization, but that's how it is unless the guidelines are changed. Per WP:ROMAJI, redirects for all likely romanizations should be created, so we should redirect from Mitani Gohō instead. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 15:24, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
