Article title[edit]

Just one day after creating the article, I find its title "Raika Dōmei" pedantic and obscure. "Leica Dōmei" seems better. "Dōmei" means "alliance", and the English-language chronology within Field Notes of Light refers to "Leica Alliance"; but it's not clear whether this is more than a nonce translation made for that book.

On the other hand, the Dōmei domain name starts "raika". -- Hoary (talk) 08:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's no roman-letter version apparent in the book Tokyo Kaleidoscope or for that matter the bunkobon reissue of Akasegawa's book. -- Hoary (talk) 08:09, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
