Description Andrew Dunbar 2005-06-07 02:39:44 UTC 
Currently the charinsert extension enters HTML entities for all wikis. But UTF-8 
wikis prefer all input to be in UTF-8. Certainly the English Wiktionary does. Another 
problem is that searching does not treat HTML entites and UTF-8 plain text the same, 
even with the new search engine.
Comment 1 Zigger 2005-06-07 03:31:24 UTC 
The search discrepancy should be a separate report.
Comment 2 Andrew Dunbar 2005-06-07 04:02:45 UTC 
Bug 1036: "Search doesn't handle special characters correctly" already covers the search 
discrepancy I mention though it's not very detailed and hasn't received any attention.
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2005-06-07 05:27:35 UTC 
Charinsert inserts UTF-8 characters if that's what you give it.

Resolving as WORKSFORME.
Comment 4 Andrew Dunbar 2005-07-23 04:36:21 UTC 
Yes it was my mistake. There was no such problem.
