Ryouma Baba → Ryoma Baba – The official site proofs his spelling is Ryoma Baba not Ryouma Baba. Even some of the credits of his movie is wrong. This is his official site. http://tokientertainment.co.jp/management/ryomababa.html Satorudayo (talk) 16:43, 22 January 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. Iffy★Chat -- 11:12, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- Move to Ryōma Baba, which solves both issues. Dekimasuよ! 02:04, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose but would not object to relisting. There is no case to answer; The official site is a primary source and if some of the credits of his movie is wrong this suggests that his common name may even be this wrong spelling. See wp:correct. Andrewa (talk) 10:15, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
- You are right in general, but there are more specific MOS transliteration rules at WP:MOS-JA#Modern names that tend to defer to the official site (#1), which would tend to imply that the request should go through were there any actual body text in English there. Failing that, the macronned form is still advisable per #5 and the consistency criterion. Dekimasuよ! 18:48, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
