If the move is not reverted (see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#Other possible vandalism by Cleric71), it should at least be "Ewha Women's University" instead of "The Ewha Women's University". Wikipeditor
The official name of this university is Ewha Womans University (no apostrophe). See the official university website. Absent any widespread practice of calling it by some other name, there is no reason to have this article under a different name. -- Visviva 10:06, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

It should have an apostrophe then, shouldn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've never heard of any such word as “womans” (or “womens”). Is this earlier English orthograhy?
If not, I suggest removing the claim that there's nothing wrong with the name from the article. It looks as odd as a “Cherry Blossom Mans Kindergarten” (founded by a single man) would. Wikipeditor 13:25, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
I'm currently doing a major edit of Christianity in Korea and I came here from that page to check the correct spelling of the name of the university, only to find the same confusion here. Is it always "Ewha", or is "Ehwa" (or, at times, "Ihwa") also correct? It's probably just because I'm far more familiar with Latin-based languages than with Asian ones, but although I can absolutely accept the initial E/I variation, the wh/hw switching seems really odd to me. I don't want to assume it's a typo, though, without trying to find out for sure. I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks. :) -- edi ( talk) 23:06, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
The page was obviously written in a propaganda attempt. Some of the more obviously attempts at self-flattering have been removed. Only items that have little or no informational value have been removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.131.237.172 ( talk) 16:20, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
"It is one of the city's largest institutions of higher learning and currently the world's second-largest female educational institute.[2]"
Is it supposed to be a source? If yes, what would that be? If not, can we remove it? Replace it with a source?
