I would also
like to point out that we most certainly do not have
to worry about the reader finding the correct name (despite their
anglo-brainwashing), as Zoe and others have argued, because we have
#REDIRECT
Instead of a redirect, I would see a short article that explains that
word "x" is the anglicised, or Americanized version of word "y", and
to please see word "y" for more information on the subject, or look
at the "x versus y" article that goes into the finer grain.
If someone uses Peking as the capital of China, should it just
rediect to Beijing (a different approximation), or rather explain
that Peking was named such after the work of such and such scholar
but was later acknowledged... so on and so forth.
This is certainly a reasonable alternative to redirects, but this
explanation would rarely be more than a stub, so often (but not always)
it would fit just as well in the first paragraph of the substantive article.
