I just noticed a problem with the title of 나의 별에게 | L30??, and I suspect it may have something to do with a quirk of Korean typing that I’ve come across occasionally. I may be mistaken and it’s something completely different (something like this, for example), but I just thought I’d draw attention to it.
Below is the title copied from the item page:
나의 별에게
Although it looks the same as 나의 별에게, which I’ve just typed, it is different. Usually if you use backspace after completing a syllable, the whole block is deleted. However occasionally you come across examples like the one above where it behaves slightly differently - if you copy and paste the text then use backspace, it deletes by letter rather than by block (for example, 게 becomes ᄀ, rather than being deleted completely). While this seems like an incredibly minor thing, it means the title can’t be found using search: I tried both copy-pasting the title and typing it out, but there were no results for either method.
It is an easy fix: just delete the title and type it out again. But as far as I’m aware, there’s no way to detect if titles are “broken” like this except the copy/paste/backspace method. I only discovered this because I was trying to add the item to a list but it wasn’t appearing in the search results. So there could be other examples like this in the database; again, not a huge deal because if you try to add it again, you’ll be directed to the existing page.
It’s a tiny thing, and while it doesn’t cause huge problems, it is a little inconvenient. Just thought I’d mention it in case i) it is a bug(?) unique to Korean, rather than something that affects all languages, ii) it can be detected and/or fixed automatically, and iii) users who are confused about not being able to find an existing item using search can be made aware of the potential issue.
