#14619: 404 Errors from RTL characters appended to URL
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: AndyBeard | Owner:
Type: defect (bug) | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Awaiting Review
Component: Canonical | Version: 3.0.1
Severity: minor | Keywords: rtl
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
This is an interesting bug I found via webmaster tools
Example URL
http://andybeard.eu/2210/google-
stopbadware.html%20-%20%D8%A8%D8%B1%DB%8C%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C
The URL has some arabic characters added to it I assume by mistake, but is
constructed to theoretically handle quite a lot of errors with URL
formation by using the post ID at the start.
This results in a 404 error so can't even be handled by canonicalization
tags.
