We need to know how to tell Google the page is english. We've tried specifying content-language in server header and meta tag. Is there a sure-fire way to get Google to recognize the real language of these pages?
I wish I had a direct fix to offer you, but this kind of thing has been reported off and on for years -- even when the page did not include any words in another language -- and no one seems to know what the issue is or how to fix it. You might try including something on the page, in addition to the server headers. The html tag allows for a lang attribute - <html lang="en">
Your issue is a bit special in that you ARE including another language, even though it's only a few place names. I have a tickle in the back of my brain that there is a way to tag those "foreign" names but I just can't recall it right now. Maybe someone else will have an idea.
