First of all: alternate names are very annoying; I used to deal with them on Wikipedia, and now they pop up here.

Now the case:

Two different articles about the same game/anime series. Note that both alternate titles in fact should've been punctuated: it's Kin'iro no Corda, if one wants to be accurate. So this would need a merge and a proper title and redirects. Also notice how one article has a character sheet attached to it.

La Corda d'Oro is the official title, as far as I know, or at least it's actually written in Latin letters under the Japanese name (which by itself would be Kin'iro no Corda - say hello to Alternate Character Reading). So it's probably what the article needs to be called. I'm not sure how to deal with punctuated titles, so maybe somebody could help?

Okay, use the plaintext version of whichever is correct: La Corda d'Oro or Kin'iro no Corda and then the other two can be redirected to it. You can then customize the title to have proper punctuation and capitalization. You'll also want an english version pointing at it.

[up]As far as I can tell, La Corda d'Oro is the official English title. Should we really include a troper-made title of "The Golden String"?

I'm not at all familiar with the game. If it is known by the english name at all, use that as the redirect, if not, don't.
