http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/SortNameStyle "All ArtistSortNames should be in Latin script. If the ArtistName is in a non-Latin script, use the transliterated or translated name by which the artist is commonly known." It doesn't talk about ascii/non-ascii, but the latin script. ō is a latin character, so it's fine. _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
