Talk:Tubuai

More information about current Tubuai is needed and welcome. Original research isn't permitted, but there must be books, articles, non blog and non commercial websites, etc., that could be used to expand this article with new, interesting details. It seems that most of the sources out there focus on the mutineer's interaction with Tubuai, which is only one period of history, but still interesting considering that it provides a glimpse of island culture before shifts from a lot of European contact.

Per WP:COMMONNAME, "Wikipedia prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in reliable English-language sources) as such names will be the most recognizable and the most natural." The name for the island referenced in the sources is "Tubuai". Evenrød (talk) 06:38, 1 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Just to add, this isn't to say that the name "Tupua'i" isn't more "correct", or perhaps used more locally in that region. This is simply a case of English-language travel books and other assorted books and articles using the form "Tubuai", so to ease accessing information for the general reader the same form applies for the English language version of this article.

You haven't said what you think is wrong with the coordinates in the article, but I've taken it upon myself to reposition them nearer the center of the island. If you still think that there is an error, you'll need to provide a clear explanation of what it is. Deor (talk) 17:51, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
