Disallow use of spaces or TABS, punctuation, and symbols (*#%<>, etc.) to embellish the beginning of a station name. This confuses web and app-based language translators.

Also at the same time "Wingding" and "Dingbat" character sets or pictures anywhere in the name (as in the microphone to embellish NRJ radio)

This can be done easily without interfering with Cyrillic (Russian), Greek, Asian, or Hebrew character sets.
