What title should I have to use when adding japanese titles?

I think ダイナソー is just japanese for Dinosaur, and if so it has to be in the alternative title field

I don't know if Blood+: Souyoku no Battle Rondo is correct,
but alt. title should be BLOOD+ ～双翼のバトル輪舞曲～

there are some Japanese mod guys here, they can tell you more

Btw, I think that all the alternative titles should have english symbols only in Shift-JIS (no ISO symbols), all the subtitles should be shown between "～" symbols and "・" should be used to split katakana words. And all the spaces should be wide (from a Shift-JIS table), not the regular ones, shown by pressing the spacebar button. Gigadeath has recently screwed _the whole_ Saturn section by removing all the "～" and "・" symbols and changing all the letters to ISO ones. Honestly, this made me even less motivated to dump the rest of my Saturn

The response to this is already in the PMs I sent you weeks ago. Feel free to copy/paste them here if you prefer to make the whole discussion public. I couldn't care less

I hope it's clear that I take absolutely NO responsibility upon myself for your "demotivation", sorry. Blame yourself if you feel demotivated. Try a support group or something like that.

Half the JP database is/was already in ISO form, and ～s and ・s are completely useless from both phonetical and semantical points of view.

Besides, I don't know if I'm the only one thinking this, but I also think you're not the best person to be the admin here, considering your temper.

I already said I was wrong about not informing you about the changes.

Still, I refuse the "as is" stance, especially since we agreed to adhere to a convention. The whole point of a convention is to plane exceptions off to standardize naming. I really don't get how the "as is" and the "convention-y" stances can live together in a coherent way. Either take everything "as is" and leave for good the convention facade which got the footlights lately, or develop a convention to standardize Japanese naming too. As I said, we just can't boast about how we have a new convention for Western naming, while Japanese naming is left in poor ol' "as is" state. It's not coherent acting.

I still consider aphonetical characters completely useless, or at least not enough useful to force a double standard. About ISO vs JIS, I'll simply repeat that I don't prefer ISO chars; if we'll reach an all-JIS standard I'll be more than happy. That doesn't change the fact that the whole database is/was already half JIS and half ISO, and you know it. Standing halfway, I simply took the direction to a standard you consider wrong, instead to a standard you consider good, but I sure didn't disrupt a perfect database like it seemed from your words.

(moreover, Japanese users can install ISO support on their OS, just like we installed kanji support on ours; unless they're mentally handicapped, I don't get why you think they absolutely have to get the soup ready on the table, unlike us)

BTW, No-Intro and Redump.org cannot in any way be compared. Romsets are in their mature phase, they require simple fine-tuning, nothing that requires any mass renaming. That said, your temper is a completely different issue. I don't dispute your knowledge, but your attitude doesn't simplify things here. And I'm not talking about this particular argument between us; several other flame-y discussions have been brought up lately, discussions I had no part in.

I don't see any comments nor any actions on fixing the titles.
