Should the heading be "List of Japanese POW camps", as some of their camps are in what is now China or Indonesia
As many of these camps held civilian internees as well, should the title be changed to the (admittedly cumbersome) 'List of Japanese POW and civilian internee camps during World War II'? The Wikipedia page on POW camps is quite clear that civilians are not included in the definition of POWs. Or should we start another list page: 'List of Japanese civilian internee camps during World War II'? This will mean a lot of repetition and possible confusion though Jasper33 18:49, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Done - Article moved to List of Japanese-run internment camps during World War II. Neil ☎ 12:57, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
List of Japanese POW camps during World War II → List of Japanese internment camps during World War II — I request that this article be moved to List of Japanese internment camps during World War II. As is indicated in the lead section of the article, this list doesn't just cover POW camps, but also civilian camps and mixed POW-civilian camps. For this reason, the title of the list doesn't cover the content of the list. The proposed title does cover the content.

Wikipedia's naming conventions.There seems to be no information available regarding the internment of the Canadian Japanese by the Canadian Government during World War II. The Canadian Japanese were taken from their homes, had all their belongings and properties seized and were interned in sub-standard camps for the duration of the war. David Suzuki was one of the children raised in an internment camp. Is there no available information regarding the Japanese internment camps in British Columbia, Canada? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.48.113.177 ( talk) 19:12, 10 May 2013 (UTC)

The Fukuoka 17 article is a good one, but the three other wikilinks I’ve clicked on are not to articles on the camps themselves but to towns (and in one case a person). The result is that if someone finds this article and wants to click through to an article on a POW camp in Japan, the chances are that they won’t be able to. They’ll waste their time and be fed up about that. That’s not good and is not a good look for Wikipedia. I recommend that all wikilinks to non-camp articles be removed. Anyone disagree?
