article title[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The reviewer would like to request the editor with a COI attempt to discuss with editors engaged in the subject-area first.

Regarding the page title, 'Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist' would be more appropriate than 'Administrative scrivener' because the Japanese government translates Gyosei-shoshi Act as Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist Act. Gyoseishoshi Lawyers of Tokyo website calls Gyosei-shoshi as Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialists as well.

I listed this at WP:Japan so others more skilled might comment. this site seems to provide a good history of the term and its translation and what you suggest might be OK. Seems to me that simply "Gyoseishoshi Lawyer" might be best. For now I am marking your COI request "answered". Jytdog (talk) 03:47, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
