Names in different languages are genuine content and therefore worth tagging
(e.g. Londres, Moscow).

Simple transliterations aren't content, however. They're essentially just
algorithmic derivatives. AFAICT the Russian names for tube stations are just
simple transliterations. Though Vauxhall might be the exception in the
Russian case...
