Encoding issues on make.wordpress.org

[SergeyBiryukov]

See ​http://make.wordpress.org/meta/2013/09/11/today-i-imported-all-make-wordpress-org-events/.

1. The posts are now deleted pending further investigation, however there's still an issue with some names:
   ​http://cl.ly/image/0Y0y3e2e0c2A.
2. The invalid characters in ​http://cl.ly/image/2q2I1D1d3q0t are actually ​non-breaking spaces. I could not reproduce the issue using WordPress Importer 0.6.1, so it appears to be specific to WP.org setup. Happy to help with additional debugging or testing if needed.

Those are related to an issue we had last Friday with the CCH: https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/316#comment:9.

The editor is blank on 4 pages and 1 glossary item due to the encoding issues:

• ​Automated Testing
• ​Design Decisions
• ​The Bug Tracker (Trac)
• ​PHP Documentation Standards
• ​mu-plugins, must-use plugins (glossary)

IIRC, the last time this happened, it had to be fixed in the database.

I've checked all of the encoding issues listed in this ticket, and all of them have been fixed except for the one in comment:2: ​https://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/12/18/commit-promotions/

The editor is blank for this post - if this issue could be fixed, then we could close this ticket.

@kpdesign: I fixed the encoding issue for the post ​https://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/12/18/commit-promotions/

As such, I'm closing the ticket as fixed as your behest.

@coffee2code: Thank you for taking care of that - I appreciate it. :)
