Do any participants with fandoms whose AO3 canonical titles don't start with Latin characters want their fandoms changed so that they start with either the transliteration or the English title so that they appear in the proper place on the AO3 requests page? Yes. I find it very confusing to try and find those fandoms in Unicode sorting, and a lot of my east Asian fandoms don't have the original title in the canonical on AO3 anyway, even some of the more recent ones. It's inconsistent, along with the fact that fandom pages don't sort in Unicode order, and that makes it even more confusing to find them in a tags list or requests page (and in a big exchange, it's annoying to search through several pages of fandoms with non-latin names for the ones I know).
