The Summer of Sangailė → The Summer of Sangaile – The first country in the English-speaking world (US) with a planned theatrical release and now a poster[1] is spelling it this way. Film Fan 20:41, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

• Oppose "Sangailė" is the name of one of the characters in the film, so calling the film "Sangaile" would be incorrect. And it's not an American film. Also @Vindre: Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 06:55, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

We're looking for the title most used in the English-speaking world, and even spellings of names differ from country to country. Film Fan 19:57, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

But that would be an incorrect title. It's clear that Sangailė is correct here. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 07:46, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

We're not looking for what you consider to be a correct translation. We're looking for the actual name of the film used in the English-speaking world, whether or not you agree with how they spell the name. It's clear that Sangaile is correct here. Film Fan 11:22, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

No, the correct title is Sangailė, not Sangaile. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 11:38, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Not if we operate by the clear film-title rules that Wikipedia uses. Film Fan 23:11, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Which would be to use Sangailė and not Sangaile. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 09:45, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

Not if you actually look at the evidence provided. Film Fan 10:23, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

I have. It's Sangailė and not Sangaile. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 17:08, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

You haven't. Film Fan 22:12, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

• Oppose - there is a long standing tradition on Wikipedia to use diacritics even if for convenience/accessibility many English publications do not. In this particular case, here is an English poster with the "ė". Renata (talk) 14:42, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Would you mind telling us what theatrical release of the film that poster is for, Renata? Context is everything when it comes to a name on a poster. Film Fan 23:11, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

• Oppose: the diacritic spelling appears to be the correct one, both in general and for Wikipedia purposes. —GrammarFascist _contribs^talk 22:17, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
