Hi, everybody! I'm not sure how to find an answer (or even how to ask the question), but maybe one of the wise individuals here can help.

We're having problems with apostrophes being in page names. I feel like this wasn't an issue last year, but now it's gotten to the point that it has affected various pages on the wiki. I'll list a few issues we're having:

1. In the Wikia search box, any newly created page with an apostrophe in the title does not provide a suggested autocomplete. Previously created pages do show up though.

2. We have a well-written (by people much smarter than me) dpl auto-categorization template in place, but ANY page that has an apostrophe in it will not show up. They used to; I'm not sure when they stopped appearing.

The coding has not been changed to my knowledge, so there's no reason it should suddenly stop appearing, unless it's something from Wikia itself. Any thoughts in that regard? The only other thing I can think of is my browser's address bar shows apostrophes as %27 - could that affect it? The page name itself (which is what the auto-categorization coding pulls from) displays the apostrophe correctly.

Example:

This is one of the seals that has an apostrophe in it. If you'll take a look at the bullet under Acquisition, "As a reward for completing the following Boss Challenges," it's supposed to list those challenges where the seal can be obtained. (By comparison, it should look like this.)

If it's useful, this is what (part of) the dpl coding looks like: As a reward for completing the following Boss Challenges:

I don't know if what I wrote even makes sense to anyone, but any input you have would be fabulous. Thank you very much!
