ANV: when ANV like this "A m o 1", this ANV doesn't show on artist page (#562 - Bug)

Description
See this release: http://www.discogs.com/history?release=1394724 .
Left it 10 mins incase db needed to update, before reporting this bug (...doesn't normally need me to wait for ANV's to display...)
On side B, when the ANV was "A M O 1" it worked, and the artist page showed the ANV correctly.
Alter ANV from "A M O 1" to "A m o 1".
But the ANV doesn't show (main artist page: http://www.discogs.com/artist/A+Mountain+Of+One / ANV page: http://www.discogs.com/artist/...n+Of+One?anv=A+m+o+1 ?)

that is bizarre indeed, A M O 1 works / a m 0 1 works but A m o 1 doesn't work indeed
anyways, since the release says "a m o 1", issue is non existing which is always the best chance to have them fixed here in discogs

...erm sorry but we still have a rule on Caps For First Letter Of Artist Names, normal or when anv'd (except when artist deliberately names themselves without one).
Needs a fix either way, regardless of this individual release.

Another screwed-up artist name, this time with the ARTIST page faulting rather than the ANV not working...
Artist "J.A.M (2)" is currently appearing as "j.a.m (2)" which is wrong...
The fundamental problem is that any artist or ANV that has been named with a first letter in lowercase, and then is updated to follow the RSG to have the first letter in uppercase, does not display correctly.
If it's the main artist the name on the page shows wrongly.
Eg. artist http://www.discogs.com/artist/J.A.M+(2) shows on the page as "j.a.m (2)".
If it's the ANV the releases only show-up under the full artist name rather than on a separate ANV version of the artist page.
Eg. http://www.discogs.com/artist/A+Mountain+Of+One does not even have the "A m o 1" ANV showing for the production credit on this release http://www.discogs.com/history?release=1394724 !
Can this fault please be fixed, as users have NO way to fix this themselves, and I've seen tons of these repeated across the site but users are non the wiser as to what they are doing wrong.

Another one here...
Changed ANV name from "a.k.a" to "A.K.A.", as per the release, yet not showing the ANV at all on his artist page:
http://www.discogs.com/artist/...nson+A.K.A.+Lil'+Sci
...this bug is SIX MONTHS(!) old this week, surely what I would consider a minor bug that needs a quick fix should have been sorted within days of reporting, rather than the amateurish and unprofessional months and months it has been already, and still unfixed.
Is Disbugs actually worth contributing bugs to, as if they never get either voted on (cause they're so minor many users don't see the bug on the site), or commented on by Nik/Teo; then what exactly is the point in pointing them out??
Yours frustrated.
