Validation Error for new entry

I was trying to create a new collection, therefore as suggested first i've tried to create a new movie as "Hep Yek Collection" , was planning to add both movies however giving below error and cannot proceed creation of new movie.
Checking the Overview...
There Were Some Validation Errors It seems as though you are entering text in Kurdish while browsing in Turkish.
Did you know that TMDb natively supports translations?
If you believe this to be an error, stop by the forums and let us know.
I've tried "Hep-Yek Collection" and "Hep Yek Collection" as well as "Hepyek Collection" (this one gives English text instead kurd). I can only create movie if i change word from Yek to Tek. Is that normal behaviour ? Shall i proceed creation with changing Tek and rename later on or will you correct this error ? Thanks

Hi @mzeyrek We use Google Translate for those detections and you can see here, that they are indeed detecting that as Kurdish.
The only thing you can really do is try tweaking the overview to get it to finally detect it as the language you're trying to add. Usually the more you write, the better the detection will be. You can do that in the Google Translate window to make it a bit easier too. It will give you real time results.
