[tz] Kyiv

[John Hawkinson]

It is (perhaps) instructive to note that Wikipedia has debated the Kiev vs. Kyiv issue for the past 15 years, and done so rather strenulously. See

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kiev/Naming_issue_Archive01

and other numbered archive pages reachable through the navigation arrow at the top of that page (for some reason it skips from 02 to 03), and there is also some discussion on the "regular" talk page and its archives, cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kiev/Archive09


This issue is a little more difficult because the historical Kiev spelling is tied up in the Russia/Ukraine conflict. It's not simply a case of a neutral preference or change thereof.
