Expose "original" artist name if the artist's name is a translation #1095
Description
Hi, I choose to report this as a bug though its more a technical issue than a code error issue.
The issue is a constant and valid for many or all artists but I am providing a single example for easy reproduction.
PLEASE READ THIS!
When searching for artists in spotify, artist names are searchable by their translated names. For example "Sa Dingding" and will show up in the spotify client as such.
When using the API, even though the search API will work with the translated name, the getAnArtist API will return the foreign (original) name, which is quite confusing. It should by all account return the translated name.
Endpoint(s):
GET https://api.spotify.com/v1/artists/{id}
Steps to reproduce:
Call the enpoint with artist id "5HCoNna7Jrw9YGVvo4lg1a"
Expected behaviour:
Returning the translated name
Actual behaviour:
Returning the original foreign language name
