Description Christopher Beland 2004-10-03 00:38:52 UTC
In Wikipedia, a category (since nominated for deletion) was created at:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:%26beta%3B-lactam_antibiotics

"Beta" here should be stored as a character, not as an HTML entity, as in:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:%CE%B2-lactam_antibiotics

But this results in an error:

 Bad title...The requested page title was invalid, empty, or an incorrectly
linked inter-language or inter-wiki title."
