# First, downgrade to ASCII chars (or transliterate if possible)
    @_ = unidecode(@_);

    for( @_ ) {
        s/['"]//gi;
        s/[^a-zA-Z0-9.-]/ /gi;
        s/\s+/_/g;
        s/_-_/-/g;
        s/^_+//g;
        s/_+$//g;
    };

You say transliterate but you don't actually use transliterate. 

        s/['"]//gi;

Since when do the ' and " characters have both upper and lower case representations? 

        tr/'"//d;

        s/[^a-zA-Z0-9.-]/ /gi;

Which characters does the /i option affect here? 

        tr/a-zA-Z0-9.-/ /c;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
