@BingusX You're right but I'm once again doubtful about where you're pulling these romanisations from. Why do you have the name outside and inside the qualifier different ("Shukou" and "Syukou")? This is going to need verification.

Must be because we have longstanding tags with differing name romanizations, like shouma_(1026syoma), for example, and the thought process is probably like, "let's put the 'actual' (read: according to howto:romanize) romanization in the proper name, and the 'preferred' romanization in the qualifier." Which is somehow the norm.

This is fair. I'll accept it for now because it's better than being blatantly wrong and it can be fixed later if desired. A bad artist tag name is better than no artist tag, and a tag name closer to an accurate/preferred romanisation is better than the wrong language.
