[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] [Created] T161263: Wikidata does not accept lowercase Cyrillic х in aliases

[NickK]

NickK created this task. NickK added a project: Wikidata. Herald added subscribers: Base, Aklapper.

TASK DESCRIPTION

The problem was first reported here: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Cannot_add_an_alias . Basically any attempt to add an aliases or a label with a lowercase Cyrillic х fails with an error message:

Could not save due to an error.
Malformed input: (alias here)

For example, adding an alias "Венк фон Венкхейм" to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q830544 fails.

This is very critical (it affects capacity to edit Wikidata, as one letter of the alphabet cannot be used)
