(I don't think that this is a duplicate of bug 8367) It's possible to upload an image with a name like "Image:Test''Apostrophe.PNG", which contains two consecutive apostrophes. However, such an image is unusable because the parser treats the apostrophes like wikimarkup and doesn't include the image. (This actually came up in a helpme request on enwiki, so it isn't entirely theoretical, although I agree that using '' in the name of an image is just confusing.)
You can replace the apostrophes with html entities and it should work.
Reopening. There's likely a duplicate bug somewhere, though I can't find an earlier one at this moment. Comment 1 suggests a workaround, but this bug is not resolved. Apostrophes shouldn't cause breakage in valid syntax.
it is difficult to post a link to article with even one apostrophe if you can get the text out of http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Apostrophe_wiki_urls&action=edit&redlink=1 then will see a sample - big problem posting it in some sites like http://www.plime.com/ can we have a work around/ mirror address without the apostrophes so current links are valid and we have a alternate? or is the best answer to use a redirect - tiny url site?

Looks fixed with r68491 - the test case under the url works for me
