MegijimaMegishima – This article should be renamed to be Megishima, because it is written "めぎしま" in hiragana in Japan - that means it should be written "Megishima" in English. See Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's official site. miya (talk) 16:28, 29 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

MegishimaMegi Jima – A more reliable source for MEGI"JI"MA is found after the last request (above). Last time I requested move from Megijima to Megishima, but I found GAZETTEER OF JAPAN by the Government of Japan(the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan, and the Hydrographic and Oceanographic Department of the Japan Coast Guard) based on the resolution of the United Nations Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names, which authorizes "Megi Jima" (see GAZETTEER OF JAPAN (p.45). "しま/じま" (Shima/Jima) means an "island". miya (talk) 08:06, 11 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • I strongly oppose inserting a space in the name. If you look at that list, a space is inserted in almost every name, so it is not a good example.
I am not surprised that different Japanese ministries give different "official" spellings. The Japanese wiki says that "shima" is the official name (quoting the MILT source), but notes that it is often pronounced "jima". I think it should remain the same, with our article also noting the difference when pronounced (if we can find a source for the claim). AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 02:05, 13 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
