Incorrect punctuation in Russian titles (colon replaced with period)
Hi, I've noticed a small but recurring issue with some Russian titles on IMDb. Colons (:) are being replaced with periods (.) in titles where colons are actually correct and standard in Russian. For example: "Заклятие 4: Последний обряд" is shown as "Заклятие 4. Последний обряд" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22898462/ "Фантастическая четвёрка: Первые шаги" is shown as "Фантастическая четвёрка. Первые шаги" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10676052/ "Хищник: Планета смерти" is shown as "Хищник. Планета смерти" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31227572/ "Трон: Арес" is shown as "Трон. Арес" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6604188/ In Russian, the colon is commonly used to separate a franchise name from a subtitle, similar to how it's used in English titles. Could this be looked into and corrected where applicable? Also, could you please clarify why this change is being made? Is this an automated formatting rule or a manual edit? Thanks in advance!
