Please see this move request for the article on Aomori Prefectural Aomori High School. I am hoping for wide participation and a broad consensus that can be applied to similar articles. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 00:52, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dear WP:JA and WP:FOOTBALL communities,

what would be the correct name for the article about the promotion round to the Japan Football League, held at the end of each season? The Japanese article currently sits at ja:全国地域サッカーリーグ決勝大会, which according to Google Translate transscribes as "National Regional Football League Finals". Is the current title (All Japan Regional Football Promotion League Series) thus just a miscue and it should actually be All Japan Regional Football League Promotion Series? Should the title of the article be changed to something else, for example All Japan Regional Football League Finals? Or is the current English title actually supported by one or more reliable sources in that language? – Soccer-holic^{I hear voices in my head...} 12:17, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According to the Japan Football Association's glossary of soccer terms (here), the official name is "Regional Football League Competition". For example, their page for last year's tournament (here) had "The 39th Regional Football League Competition". If we used that, we might want to add "Japan" or "Japanese" (or "All Japan" like it has now) in the article title only, so that people know what country we're talking about.

I tried looking for other names in English publications by searching on recent winners, but no luck. – Margin1522 (talk) 00:40, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks! I will move the article to Japanese Regional Football League Competition if no one opposes within the next 24 hours. – Soccer-holic^{I hear voices in my head...} 18:53, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Could we please get some eyes on Korean influence on Japanese culture? Numerous sourcing issues have been raised on this very sensitive topic. Curly Turkey 🍁 ¡gobble! 01:58, 28 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
