Item: Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Language: en
Type of Problem: Incorrect_content
Extra Details: The title should be consistent with the rest of the series: "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens"
(So that it also sorts naturally with the others)

Instead of starting a new disc. I will add to this. Thought when it came to original title IMDB was the LAW! Yet no where does it claim short title was original (and with the Lucas decree I doubt it was). Yet it is locked and approved as original title. Same is true for Return of the Jed and Mov1i. As OP states why the inconsistency across the saga?
And again why this silly rule no EN to EN title translation on EN release...
I know for a FACT the ORIGINAL title of Episode 5 (2nd movie) was not Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back! So with that silly rule why isn't first trilogy forever locked with incorrect title?
As for short and long title worldwide, it seems there is no consistency. I tried to follow IMDB, but some are locked one way or the other, so I left it as is and just named the one in alt long or short.
