Warning loop in distributor submission

In distributor submission, I entered "The Jokers [fr]", but I got a warning saying that I should write "Jokers, The [fr]":

So, I did that, but then I got a second warning proposing (among others) "The Jokers [fr]":


Choosing this one yields the first warning again. So, there seems to be an inconsistency in the database. If "The Jokers [fr]" is correct, I shouldn't get the first warning.

You simply have to acknowledge that the companies name does in fact start with "The" and it will go through.



There's similar issues when dealing with first and last names for actors, it always wants lastname,firstname but the display is firstname_lastname

Yes, but since the company name already exists, the warning shouldn't be there in the first place. It's annoying to get spurious warnings.
