Character restrictions in wiki "other names" field

Posted under Bugs & Features

Was working on the Doppo_is_pissed!! wiki when I noticed that なんだァ?てめェ…… (the most populated Pixiv tag equivalent) couldn't be (practically) added to "other names" section because the double Japanese three-dot ellipses get turned into six sequential periods/full stops. The field 'accepts' the name anyway but since it's a different name, it's pointless for Pixiv searches and tag completion, so I removed it.

I don't think it's necessary to allow the three dot in wiki "other names", but perhaps this should fail gracefully instead of introducing unexpected changes? By rejecting the name outright instead of changing it into a subtly-different one that will likely be missed unless the wiki writer doublechecks the links, I mean.
