Umlaut

what is with the umlaut? I don't believe there are such diacritical markings in the standard romanization of the Hawaiian langauge. Okinas and kahakos, but no umlauts. I'm no expert on these matters... but if there are no replies with references, I'll move the article at some point. Thanks! -- Contrib¯ _Santa_ ¯  Talk 17:14, 13 July 2006 (PDT)

  • It's supposed to be a kahako-a, (macron-a should work too) but the poster didn't try to find the symbol in the HTML set. Give me a moment. Dmuk § 17:16, 13 July 2006 (PDT)
There is no handy symbol, gad, tilde (ã) is the closest in the ISO Latin-1 set, but leaving it off might be best for the time being. Dmuk § 17:26, 13 July 2006 (PDT)
    • I fixed the symbol to use "ā" (%C4%81), added redirect, will also converge the un-accented form, too. Dmuk § 17:50, 13 July 2006 (PDT)

Corrected the note about the island not appearing. I can provide a screencap if necessary, although that seems arbitrary. Also I did not mention in the article, but the island does appear in other episodes (e.g. 1x17), although it is not apparent as an island. -- Contrib¯ _Santa_ ¯  Talk 17:18, 13 July 2006 (PDT)
