Robin in a forked thread: I saw that Wiktionary tagged "daimio" as dated so I figured we didn't need it. (It's a JE entry, after all.) But I agree that we should have "daimyo". The macron version might not be necessary.
I'm happy to drop the ō in this case. I guess we need a policy.

I've been doing a bit of o/ou->ō conversion lately, and I may have been a bit over-enthusiastic. There are cases, like Tokyo, where it's a bit strong to always have Tōkyō.
I see the "daimyo" entry in the Shorter OED explains it's from dai + myō (with macron).
WRT "daimio", I think it's a historical oddity. I don't see the need to have it in glosses.

just to point out that "daimyo" (no macron) and "daimio" are both in every english dictionary i have access to at the moment (M-W, dictionary.com, the ODE built into macos).  i think they should both remain as they were.  e.g., the entry for 東京 is "Tokyo", not "Tōkyō"

daimyō -> daimyo in all other entries as well
