Should it have a hyphen? Wikipedia uses it.
BUR #56002 has been approved by @nonamethanks.
rename chouchin_obake -> chouchin-obake
create alias chochin-obake -> chouchin-obake
Alternate BUR to keep the hyphen.
Sorry, I'm not sure where exactly the line is for deciding between aliases and renames, but I figure different letters are a stronger justification for aliasing than whether we use an underscore or hyphen.
BUR #56003 has been rejected.
rename chouchin_obake -> chouchin'obake
create alias chochin-obake -> chouchin'obake
Adding this one because the Wikipedia article, as well as some other places, use a version with an apostrophe. In fact, it's the one used for the title of the Wikipedia article.
The apostrophe is used for the ん sound followed by a vowel to specify that it's romanizing two different hiragana instead of one (in this case, んお instead of の).
However, for compound words (such as this one), the more common way to do it is to use hyphens because it just looks better conceptually and it denotes that they're two distinct words.
