What's with the diacritical marks in "Waikiki"? Is this the standard Hawaiian language spelling? And shouldn't it be "Beach"? RickK 03:38, 21 Sep 2003 (UTC)
I've moved this article from "Waikīkī" to "Waikiki".
This result inlcludes results for major Hawaii-based media, for instance the Honolulu Advertiser and Honolulu Star-Bulletin
My conclusion from this evidence is that "Waikiki" in much wider circulation than than "Waikīkī" and should be the title of the article.

While it is possible that what you are saying is true (about importing sand from CA), Waikiki has always been a sand berach. I would need to see a reference about your statement. I've not heard that before. But I can research it a bit for you, or you can provide a source for the information? - Marshman 04:27, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
i can't provide source verification but I've heard about it. A hawaiian wikipedian should check the honolulu library archives for newspaper articles on the subject.
I presume you must mean the reef runway, as the airport was built in the 20's or 30's. But, believe me, there is absolutely no relationship between the airport in Honolulu and the sand on Waikiki Beach. They are separate reef systems and too far apart for the reef runway to provide any sort of wave protection. And presently there is lots of talk about needing another beach restoration or sand replenishment at Waikiki, so your hypothesis is incorrecty as to the need as well. - Marshman 18:06, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
This article is in very sad shape. For a Hawaiian landmark of such importance to be in this condition is almost unbelievable. Viriditas ( talk) 07:04, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
