Broken Characters
#1
Copying this over from VGFacts since it's also slightly relevant here:

Hi everyone! I recently fixed a major issue that I only just discovered the solution for. The result is that special characters (including character sets from other languages) now display natively and properly on all pages. The bad news is that, given the old incomplete configuration, any special characters submitted prior to yesterday were re-encoded and are now broken as a result. I've fixed the most prevalent ones (single and double quotes copied from Word, dashes that were converted to emdashes, and bullet points that were mis-entered) but I'm sure there's plenty more out there. In particular, Japanese characters are definitely broken and I already fixed one of them today. Should you find any odd looking characters while browsing the site, please report them so I can fix it.

Thanks!



Of special note on the resource sites is likely going to be single quotes as I don't anticipate much in the way of Japanese text floating around. Basically though, just keep an eye out for any weird characters and either submit a revision (if possible) or report it here.
