Is the list of voice roles excessively long? Should it be shortened? RJFJR (talk) 18:36, 23 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Naming edit

The article was moved from Yoko Soumi to here per WP:MOS-JP. However, per her official profile on Mausu Promotion, her name is spelled as "Yoko Soumi", which is more or less her official romanization. Should we move it back?

Yōko SōmiYoko Soumi – As per the relevant guideline at WP:MOS-JP#Modern names, "Use the form personally or professionally used by the person, if available in the English/Latin alphabet." In this case, her name is romanized as Yoko Soumi as per her official profile.

  • "Soumi" is correct and "Sōmi" is wrong in either event, I think (this is a non-standard reading of 沢 to me). It doesn't qualify for "ō" because the "u" belongs to the second kanji. However, I'm not sure the linked site qualifies as self-identification. I would prefer to move this to Yōko Soumi for accuracy. Dekimasuよ! 22:54, 21 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
