My hot take is that non-english fandoms should have translated or transliterated titles in English characters, and be in their original titles in their original alphabet when browsing in that language, instead of this revolting pipe business that makes non-english fandom names into horrendous eyesores. And that transliterations to English should not include diacritics, which make it impossible to search within said fandom from a standard English keyboard.

+1, especially for the diacritics part. I feel so bad for those fandoms.

I think that was originally planned, but they just never got around to having the archive in multiple languages.

+1 about the diacritics, those are terrible.

I sympathize with the problem of translating/transliterating everything into English, though, because some Asian films (for example) have three or four different official English titles. It would be great if all those titles could be synned, but I think it would be complicated to make that happen.
