::I think that the most that'll happen is that the the Steam title is listed as an alternate translation. The Sealing Club tracks also have these official translations for song titles, but those largely go unused. --[[User:MadamePhoton|MadamePhoton]] ([[User talk:MadamePhoton|talk]]) 14:44, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

:::For now I've added a footnote. Since the Wiki hasn't acknowledged the "official" romanizations from ZUN's music on streaming sites I think there's a case to be made not to use the erroneous provided translation. There is also additional precedent in the ''Great Fairy Wars'' debacle from a while back. There was an argument as to whether or not "Fairy Wars" was the intended official translation of 妖精大戦争. "Faily Wars" in Enlgish text appears in the game but the discussion ended with more people siding to ignore that. If an in-game phrase has no bearing then I don't see how a Steam-only title does. What's more is that the official English Steam page lists GFW under the title "Yousei Daisensou". I don't see anyone arguing that that should be the official rendition of the title in English. I believe these precedents are satisfactory. Of course, anyone is free to argue otherwise if there happens to be any angle I missed.
