Copied from a Wiki discussion:

Now that our software supports multiple transliterated canonical/legal names per author, some page headers look very busy. For example, consider 小松左京 (Sakyo Komatsu)'s Summary page. One third of the "real estate" at the top of the page is occupied by two forms of his transliterated canonical name and three forms of his transliterated legal name. Nihojoe mentioned this issue a few months ago when all we had was transliterated legal names, and it has become more serious with the addition of transliterated canonical names.

I'd like to propose changing the way these transliterated names/titles are displayed at the top of author, title, publication, publisher and publication series page. Instead of displaying one transliterated name per line, we could use the same mouse-over help bubbles that we use elsewhere. In certain cases it may make finding useful information a little harder, but on balance I think it will be an improvement.
