Hello!
I'm from Belarus, my native language is Russian. This is a cool website which I'm trying to use as a source for metadata for my movies collection in combination with DLNA server.
In russian there are two similar letters - "e" and "ё". They have different sound, but mostly only the "e" version is used in written language.
So that correct writing of Star Wars is "звЁздные войны", but it's mostly typed and is named in many other sources as just "звЕздные войны". Because of that search fails and for many movies I have it doesn't work. I'm almost sure I'm not the only one with such issue.
Also, on this website there are also different movies which include "Star Wars" in name but in russian some of them have "звЁздные войны" and some have "звЕздные войны" so it's completely incostistent.
Here are some links: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/80829-star-wars-revelations (this one has "е" letter) https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1893-star-wars-episode-i-the-phantom-menace (this one has "ё")
Is it possible to request an update of search engine which will ignore this letters difference for russian?

You're right, you're not! We get a lot of duplicate reports because of diacritics.
If my memory serves me right, Travis is aware. But I'm not sure where this one ranks against the other million things on his to-do list...
If you're confident that it is the right spelling (aka the one originally used in the credits, the promo material, by the distributors, etc.) feel free to correct them!
