Wikipedia gives ペイチン as a katakana transcription of the Chinese. I don't think it's a reading used in Japanese.

I usually avoid the old Wade-Giles versions of words, but I see we have both Nanking and Nanjing for 南京. I guess it doesn't hurt.
I won't add "Tokio" to 東京.

Isn't Peking worth including? It's still used here and there. We have the much more obscure "Dimashq" in our Damascus entry.
