Not sure about those. We always do it for "The", but I believe "A" is different.
 
What is the usual way of handling these bands on other sites?
 
Is there also a language issue with some?

A for A BARCA DO SOL is definite (same as The).
 
A for A PIEDI NUDI is a preposition (same in Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, etc), and equals to With (Moris got it Wink).
 
Anyway, if we define and accept a general rule for the indefinite, I'll be OK... but it's obvious that a standartization is needed. Smile
