ArchivesRe: The name Shin'ichi has a bug
in reply to a message by Felie
Hi Felie,
The message parsing was ignoring the apostrophes when searching for names. I've changed the code so Shin'ichi should link from messages now.
The apostrophe is used in this name to indicate that the syllables are shin-ichi, not shi-ni-chi (which would have a different pronunciation). This is only rarely required since the only consonant that a Japanese syllable can end with is the n.
