use proper spanish, with diacritics and correct capitalisation
two-digit numbers should be written as alphabetic
- 9 de julio -> Nueve de julio
- El 11 -> El once
- El 13 -> El trece
issues
- three letter numbers
  - e.g. "Milonga del novecientos" vs "Milonga del 900"
- four letter numbers
- alternativ titles, which is primary? Flor de Monserrat vs Pobre negrito

only uses alphabetic work titles

Alternative titles
- Practice varies e.g. second title is:
  - 1 Appended in brackets e.g.

De todo te olvidas (cabeza de novia)

It would be better to retain capitalisation:

De todo te olvidas (Cabeza de novia)

Copa del olvido => La copa del olvido

Loca de amor / La loca de amor

This is indistinguishable from single title containing '/' e.g.

La Yumba / Adiós Noniño
