I've noticed a conflict around character page names and this is not the first this has happened so I wanted to get some thoughts regarding it. The most popular and well-known forms of certain names are of course Hanbei/Kanbei/etc though we are currently using Hanbee/Kanbee/Matabee/etc. These are still correct. But since they're not as familiar, apparently some people are seeing these as errors on the wiki. While I don't really care which variation of the names we use, I am interested in if anyone would prefer one form or another and why.

All right, I might as well chime in here.
While I've been largely the one enforcing the current names (mostly for the sake of keeping all the pages consistent) I don't have any particular preference. I'm more used to the '-bei' forms, myself, but I've obviously no issue with keeping things the way they currently are.
My understanding was that '-bee' is supposedly a more accurate romanization (similar to Kojuro vs Kojuurou or Kojuuro, or Fuma vs Fuuma, etc. Thank goodness for special characters to avoid argument on some of these), but I'm not going to claim to be an authority on that, in any sense of the word--point is, that's why I let the change stick when it was first made months ago.
But anyway, I'm perfectly willing to change it back if there's a lot of demand for it.

I don't really have much of a preference for the naming so I'm good with whatever you guys want to pursue. It seems like people are leaning more towards the '-bei' side of things.
