Can't have a capitalized accented E in my video title?

In my http://videosift.com/video/POKEMON-GO-FAST-FACTS-Pokemon-Training-in-the-Real-World submission, I had to omit the capitalized accented E due to "Invalid Entry" error for "POKÉMON GO FAST FACTS! | Pokémon Training in the Real World". However, it did let me have it with capitalized plain (no accent) in "POKEMON GO FAST FACTS! | Pokémon Training in the Real World".

So if VS didn't like the accent, then why let me use it in lowercased "e"? A bug?

Thank you in advance.

Try putting it back with edit video. Also, try typing É rather than cutting and pasting (yt vids often have unicode characters that siftbot doesn't like when there exists an equivalent normal character that it would have accepted).

Not exactly a bug, just a choice about which characters are acceptable in titles.

I tried Alt and 0201 to make É, but VS rejected it.
