Noisy YouTube titles are cleaned for display + storage, raw kept in videos.original_title: - app/titles.normalize_title: strip emoji/symbols (keep accents), remove trailing SEO hashtag clusters (keep numeric #3 episode markers), context-aware de-shout (mostly-ALL-CAPS titles -> Title Case with an acronym whitelist + function-word lowercasing; otherwise only long all-caps words), collapse repeated punctuation - applied at enrichment (sync/videos.py) and in the download worker (ad-hoc yt-dlp titles); catalog downloads inherit the normalized title automatically - migration 0039: add original_title, preserve raw, rewrite title (generated search_vector regenerates); reversible via original_title Backfill on localdev: 122115/273417 titles normalized in ~2 min. Verified in the feed + on real messy samples (emoji/de-shout/hashtags), accents + acronyms (PS5/AI/USA/PC) preserved.

"""Video title normalization — clean the noisy YouTube titles for display + storage.
|
|
|
|
Applied where a video's title is written (enrichment) and where a download's title comes from
|
|
yt-dlp, so the feed, search, channel pages, and the download center all show tidy titles. The
|
|
raw title is preserved in `Video.original_title` so this is reversible / re-derivable.
|
|
|
|
Rules (user-approved "option b"):
|
|
1. Drop emoji / pictographs / symbols / control chars (keep accents — HU/DE/…).
|
|
2. Strip trailing SEO hashtag clusters (word hashtags at the end); a numeric "#3" episode
|
|
marker survives.
|
|
3. De-shout ALL-CAPS words, context-aware:
|
|
- If the title is *mostly shouting* (≥ half the multi-letter words are all-caps), every
|
|
all-caps word is Title-cased (short shouted words like CAR/WAR/ÉN get fixed too), and
|
|
the first letter is capitalized. Known acronyms (PS, AI, USA, PC…) and words with
|
|
digits (PS5, 3D) are kept; function words (to/the/és/az…) are lowercased.
|
|
- Otherwise only long all-caps words (≥4 letters) are Title-cased, so a lone acronym in
|
|
an otherwise normal title is left alone.
|
|
4. Collapse repeated punctuation (!!! → !) and whitespace.
