Huchi
Delete. I have removed wrong information, and what remains is a useless explanation on an Ainu word. Huci is the correct Ainu Romanization, not huchi. - TAKASUGI Shinji 01:21, 2005 Apr 12 (UTC)

 * Even if the Mount Fuji etymology is definitely academically wrong, it seems to have some currency, and this should be explained in the article. More important, as Huchi is a major Ainu deity (a fire goddess) as well as just the word for fire, it has the potential to become a real article if anyone can research the topic a bit more.--Pharos 03:28, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * It's neither the word for fire nor the name of fire god. It just means grandmother.  See Talk:Mount Fuji. - TAKASUGI Shinji 09:56, 2005 Apr 12 (UTC)
 * I just transwikied to wiktionary, (Wiktionary:Transwiki:Huchi), as it is only info about word now. I would recommend simply redirecting to Ainu, as the "Religion" section already has a sentence about Huchi. But if it can be made substantial enough to stand on its own, (a god should have that potential) that's good too, but it is obscure. (~200k ppl.) --Dmcdevit 03:54, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * That is, if it really does mean a fire god. --Dmcdevit 16:55, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. From Shinji's statement, it seems that the god in question was named Ape-huci-kamuy, not "Huchi", which would at most be a redirect. - Mustafaa 06:53, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
