Alex, this was addressed with a new deploy yesterday, the content-type is now explicitly set.

Subject: Re: [Analytics] Pagecounts dumps page title UTF-8 escaping

Hi all,

I have a similar question: why MediaWiki API and new pageviews API send different content-type responses headers?

MediaWiki API sends '

content-type:

text/html; charset=UTF-8

and new pageviews API sends only '

content-type:

application/json

' without explicitly setting UTF-8.

For example I see in my Crome browser "Goiânia_accident" correctly in MediaWiki responses and "GoiÃ¢nia_accident" in pageviews API responses.

Was it done intentionally or just a bug?

Thanks in advance!

Alex

Is the logic for the escaping available somewhere?

MediaWiki API does https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T29849
For the new pageviews API I got this reply on Unicode normalisation: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T44259#1351880

(Phabricator is down right now; wait a couple hours or check web.archive.org.)
