Back when the English-language Wikipedia used Windows-1252, people used to create redirects to articles with non-ASCII titles from the UTF-8-interpreted-as-Windows-1252 title. These were all made obsolete by the transition to UTF-8 but not cleared away until several years later. Circa 2008, I was experimenting with automatic detection of these using a database dump as input, and Muvrarášša was one of the very few false positives that came up. (I never finished this project.) /Bo LindberghThread Previous | Thread Next
