            Bug ID: 47619
           Summary: Encoding problems in parsing functions
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: WikidataClient

I added the property "Commons category" (P373) to a lot of items, see for
example https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1008 . It contains a string with the
name of the category on Commons.

On the Dutch Wikipedia I added some parser functions to find problems with the
data, see
https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sjabloon%3ACommonscat&diff=37414305&oldid=36545480

I noticed a large number of pages with "funny" characters in
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorie:Wikipedia:Commonscat_met_lokaal_andere_link_dan_op_Wikidata
. This category is for items which have a local variable set and it's different
than the one set on Wikidata. Some pages which ended up in there shouldn't be
there. Take for example https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivoorkust , it links to
the exact same category on the Dutch Wikipedia as it's object on Wikidata.

My assumption is that somewhere encoding got mangled up.
