IMO, this page’s title should be spelled “Hawaii”, not “Hawaiʻi” with an ʻokina. Although the Hawaiian-language spelling is used locally, “Hawaii” without the ʻokina is still the most commonly accepted English-language spelling globally, by a massive margin. (We also don’t spell {{Mexico}} “México”.) Plus, the Hawaiian state government doesn’t include the ʻokina in official materials (like in the Seal of Hawaii), and it appears only inconsistently on its website.
