I've just had a quick scan of my collection and I've found three titles where the title hasn't been translated - are you saying I'm supposed to translate those titles in english despite the fact there are no english titles on the cover?


Did you mean that on those DVDs there are no English titles on the front cover but the English translation is on the back cover?

No, there are no translated titles anywhere on the cover. That's what worried me about the possibility of interpreting the rules in such a way that allowed people to use their own translation.

Actually, a clearer wording of the Rule itself would help, 'cause not every user is going to read or remember this statement of Gerri's that settles it. As the poll shows (at this moment, 36 said "Title from the front cover" vs. 19 for "Localized title") a different interpretation of the Title Rule was possible, and there are lots of users who don't even read the Forums, so I hope the Rule itself be rephrased for clarity sake. Maybe adding a few words would suffice. For instance, something like "If the title appears in multiple languages on the front or back cover..." (added words in bold), just to make it clear for everybody that the "multiple languages" can be on either side, not just on the front cover the Title rule refers to in the first line.


Seconded

I'm glad this issue has been settled. And by looking at the poll results it just goes to show that some things aren't as clear as most of us may think.
