various encoded characters spoilt

various encoded characters spoilt

Issue ID:3502
Issue Category:bug
Component:core
Priority:major
Status:active
Assigned:Unassigned
Version:1.0

When I last looked closely at http://centrim.status.net/ (maybe when served using a 0.9.x version of StatusNet) AFAIR all notices appeared fine.

Now (1.0.1) a number of past notices include spoilt characters where previously there were, for example:

* nonbreaking spaces

* em dashes — —

* probably ellipses … …

* and certainly at least one other encoded character.

Example
=======

At http://centrim.status.net/notice/30

> Linköpings Universitet

— should be Linköping Universitet

At a glance, no comparable spoils at Identi.ca —

* http://identi.ca/conversation/77482507#notice-80069116 for example includes ellipses, em dashes and a Psi Ψ

* http://identi.ca/notice/54697148 includes å, ö and ä

Maybe the issue is limited to sites in the status.net domain …
