      I deal with shy hyphens a lot. They don’t display unless there’s a line break, so they get copied from various word docs or websites and end up in a database somewhere waiting to piss me off.

      I’m guessing that they pasted code from inside Microsoft Word.

        No. CMS updated to support new character set while solr did not. Not enough sanitization.

          I’ve had similar “fun” with the character defaults on MySQL, from memory for a time it was Swedish by default, rather than UTF.
