All the JEs just have "mountain witch". I don't mind including the romaji as it's used a bit. Mentioning 妖怪 doesn't seem very useful; it's not even worth an xref.

I don't like "yōkai" as disambig/clarification. Also not sure we should include "yama-uba" just because wiki has it, they have a lot of 
entries on these.
