Talk:Lenka Kotková

ISO-8859-1
I know, the title of this page should really be "Lenka Šarounová". However, the English, German, Dutch, Danish and Swedish Wikipedias are the only ones not to use Unicode (UTF-8); they are still stuck with ISO-8859-1. As described in Special characters (or better yet meta:Help:Special characters), non-ISO-8859-1 characters are unsafe in titles and even in the text itself. The S-caron (Š, Š, ) is $8A (%138) on Windows code page 1252 machines and is not ISO-8859-1. So I'm compromising by using it in the text but not in the title.

The references to Lenka Šarounová (in the asteroid lists), when used in the ISO-8859-1 Wikipedias, send Windows and Macintosh browsers (Netscape 7, anyway) to, whereas the UTF-8 Wikipedias go to  . See the difference?
