Shap Sze HeungShap Sz Heung – Name misspelt; government notices, plans and press releases all direct to Shap Sz Heung; see https://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/200812/12/P200812120116.htm and https://www.gld.gov.hk/egazette/pdf/20151942/egn201519427830.pdf+Heunggongduklaap (talk) 02:28, 11 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

This is a contested technical request (permalink). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 03:40, 13 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • More discussion needed as recent government policies and press releases seem to continue to transliterate as "Shap Sze Heung" more often; see these press release and website, both published in 2020. Happily888 (talk) 01:41, 13 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose - Happily888 points out some good counterpoints that have not received a response in some time. The proposing editor has a single edit, making this request. Nothing wrong with that, but the editor doesn't appear interested in the final result. Here's a comment that isn't really grounded in policy, but including the 'e' on English-language WP at least helps clarify pronunciation (not quite WP:USEENGLISH, but helpful). -2pou (talk) 17:01, 18 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

On moving page to Shap Sz Heung edit

With apologies for the unresponsiveness from the previous move request due to personal reasons, citing the below source that Happily888 has provided: The Hon Kenneth LAU has used the word "Sze" in his question, but citing the reply by the government (as seen in the <ref name="press release"> https://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/202012/09/P2020120900440p.htm. {{cite web}}: Missing or empty |title= (help) linked), "Sz" was used, hence reiterating that officially the Government chooses to use "Sz", and is rather erraneously transliterated as "Sze".
