Because the API returns a link to > http://lyrics.wikia.com/MC_Solaar:J%27Connais_Mon_R%C3%83%C2%B4le, my guess > is that the "ô" character is at some point converted to "%C3%83%C2%B4" > instead of "%C3%B4". > > Cheers Its treating the ô character as if it was iso 8859-1 and converting to UTF-8, however the text is already UTF-8 so in essence its double encoding ( %C3 is how you say à in UTF-8, where %C383 is how you say à in UTF-8. Similarly %B4 is how you say ´ in ISO 8859-1, but %C2%B4 is how you say ´ in UTF-8. Thus if the API module thinks %C3%B4 is in ISO 8859-1, then it will convert it to %C3%83%C2%B4) Anyways, not a problem with the MediaWiki API. You need to file a bug with Wikia. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
