Yi (Chinese surname) → Yì (surname) – Yī (surname) is also a Chinese surname. Yinweiaiqing (talk) 05:22, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Merge Yī (surname) and rename to Yi (surname). All the people listed at Yī (surname) are actually commonly known as Yi in English transliteration! -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:52, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support the proposed move per nom. Typically we omit pinyin tone marks from article titles, but in this case the tone marks work as a WP:Natural disambiguation. Oppose merging as these are not the same topic. They're different surnames that just happen to be transliterated the same way when tones are omitted. —Mx.

- Yes, in English. And this is English Wikipedia! -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
