and wrong sortname :)
2005-10-11 28408, 2005
17:18 PM
Shepard
at least the sortname should not be kyrillic because we use latin sorting
2005-10-11 28409, 2005
17:19 PM
fuchs
but latin transliteration would start with C
2005-10-11 28424, 2005

ok, C. but definitely not T

one step towards i18n would be adding name fields for every char system and selecting by user settings
2005-10-11 28442, 2005

you would have to add a name field for every language in this case

come on i want a solution now :)
2005-10-11 28428, 2005
17:26 PM

in this case, even using the transliteration won't work for sorting, because it's no ASCII char ;)

the wiki pages are all about transliterations and translations, i think noone ever thought about transcriptions - but in MB transcriptions are often used as transliteration
