Cameron's html file contains a 'meta' tag with attribute
'charset=utf-8'. So wget should detect it and convert the URL correctly.
And I can confirm that wget is working properly here. My version is
1.20.3 and I am working on Linux.
I put this file onto my local apache web server and named it quote.html:
RIGHT SINGLE QUOTE TEST
test
My command line is
wget -d -r http://localhost/quote.html
Output is
...
Decided to load it.
URI encoding = »utf-8«

@Cameron: Your wget version seems ok, so I am a bit clueless right.now...
Could you give me the output of 'wget --version' ?
Could you test in the same way as I did above to see if that is
reproducible for you or not ?
