Show alias next to artist entity name in search and relations

XMLWordPrintable

      I'd like to have the option to see the alias for my locale next to an artist entity's disambiguation when the alias doesn't match the entity name. I think this would be very useful in search results and advanced relationship displays.

      So in a format like this: NAME (ALIAS, DISAMBIGUATION)

      Examples for an en_us locale:

      • 平沢進 would show up as 平沢進 (Susumu Hirasawa)
      • 山本健誌 (Japanese composer, mostly on Nintendo (Metroid Prime)) would display as 山本健誌 (Kenji Yamamoto, Japanese composer, mostly on Nintendo (Metroid Prime))

      ja locale:

      • David Wise (video game composer) -> David Wise (デビッド・ワイズ, video game composer)
