Article title

Somebody moved this article to a new title Pollution in Japan, but the article is about the well-known subject of the "Big Four Pollution Diseases" of Japan, a direct translation of the name yondaikōgaibyō, which is a very notable subject inside Japan (see e.g. Almeida P and Stearns L, Soc. Probs., 45(1):37-60, 1998). There is already an article Environmental issues in Japan‎, which covers all environmental issues, including pollution. I suggest leaving this article with its original title, unless there is a clear consensus for a change. - Neparis (talk) 20:20, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the capitalization to use sentence case instead of title case per WP:MOS. WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:20, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed it back, 四大公害病, yondaikōgaibyō is an actual title and how it is transliterated into English. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 13:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
