TASK DESCRIPTION
  i don't know if there is anything we can do to work around this, but there is 
an issue with Chrome Version: 40.0.2214.94 on mac osx (at least) that causes 
item pages not to load.  this especially happens to me for items about US 
presidents. 
  
  I reported this as a chromium bug, which they confirm.  the chromium people 
tell me it's an issue with harfbuzz (used for rtl and maybe more... for 
rendering / smoothing / connecting letters)
  
  I have narrowed the issue down to the dvwiki link / font.
  
  https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Q983 (partial copy of 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q91).
  
  in chrome, if i try to copy / add the "dvwiki" site link (which doesn't 
render in proper font in firefox for me), then the page crashes.
  
  if i remove the dvwiki link (please revert yourself if you try) from 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q91, then i can load the page.  revert/readd and 
it crashes.
  
  for Q60, removing the arcwiki allows the page to load.
  
  I have absolutely no idea if/what we could do to work around the issue. (and 
seems it's just me reporting the issue, but it can't possibly be just me...)
