Inconsistency / Lack of Standards for titles with Hawaiʻian Words[edit]

Many articles titles, such as Kailua-Kona, Hawai'i, use an apostrophe where an okina would properly be written. Many others do not — for example, Hawaii and Honolulu, Hawaii.

To complicate matters further, there are a few article titles which have an actual okina, such as Hawai‘i ‘Ō‘ō (which also has macrons to boot). However, the okinas in such titles are not proper wiki markup ({{okina}}), but raw unicode characters.

I sure think it would be nice if names/words in the Hawaiian language could be written properly in article titles.
