characters
----------
i have a test xml i use to test titles and added the characters you mentioned. 
i had no problem uploading the test xml file. here are 2 results that seem to 
indicate that there should not be an issue with the characters:

example record
--------------
i tested the example record locally and after about 2 minutes i got the message:

The file you submitted was too large. original URL: 
http://link.nypl.org/2Qqj_oLvSbWRwPxtB1rq_wZ evaluated URL: 
http://link.nypl.org/2Qqj_oLvSbWRwPxtB1rq_wZ

my wiki was set to a limit of 100mb, so i up’d it to 1000mb.

i also switched to the new preview branch i have in gerrit, 
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/127839/, for bug 
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63864, which no longer downloads 
an image to the wiki during the preview step. instead it downloads all 
mediafiles in a background job.

the job successfully completed after 3 minutes and the image was viewable in my 
local wiki.

i also took a look at our wikitech instance and saw that you had uploaded the 
image there without issue. i also repeated the uploaded but got the message:

“This file did not pass file verification.”

this seems to have been thrown by UploadBase.php, so i'd have to look further 
into that issue. but i also suspect that commons may have just timed out on the 
download of the image in the preview step. this type of error seems similar to 
bug 63864. i just need someone to +2 the patch i made so that we can test the 
new preview step on the beta cluster.


with kind regards,
dan
