Article title should be renamed Hokkaido Colonization Commission

[edit]

The title of this article should be renamed to Hokkaido Colonization Commission because that is the official title used by the Japanese government. Source says "Hokkaido Colonization Commission (Kaitakushi)"

Colonization used here here (or here)
National Archives of japan refer to it as the "Colonization Commission" here here LilAhok (talk) 06:49, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yet here...; is there a reason you prefer the more loaded term? Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 07:07, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The source you've provided also uses the term "Colonization Commission." The info is under the "The life of Tsuda Ume after her return to Japan" tab. The classification of "colonization" as loaded or unloaded terminology is irrelevant. We've shared sources from the Japanese government that explicitly uses the term. Given the circumstances, it would be appropriate to await the opinions of other editors. LilAhok (talk) 07:47, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
