Why is there an 'Â' after every sentence?
- grues-dinner 2y agoThe UTF8 encoding of a non-breaking space (U+00A0) is 0xC2 0xA0. If you decode as ISO-8859-1 or CP-1252, that is 0xC2 (Â) and then NBSP (0xA0). So the content is supposed to have an NBSP between the sentences, was encoded as UTF8, but declared as ISO-8859-1 or similar at some stage in its history. The page seems now to declare UTF8, so it's presumably had the wrong decoding reencoded as UTF8.
