There appears to be an issue with how the Special:AncientPages page handles titles with foreign characters. This was picked up off of #212 on the page from the source code dump when inspecting the element: ‏‎ (23:54, October 6, 2012) For whatever reason, the page can’t handle the “Sauté Shrimp” title and therefore uses two foreign A letters (‏â) as replacements. The software therefore appears to be dumping the two foreign A letters in each section of code after the titles and tries to display them after each title. The result of this looks somewhat yucky. Some of the code after the said title:`Install Concrete Panels‏‎ (23:57, October 6, 2012)

Ah, I’m not too surprised to hear this - the Ancient Pages page is, in itself, pretty ancient:slight_smile:

Since it’s not a very oft-used page and the links are still usable, I don’t reckon it’ll be an engineering priority in the near future. Our best bet is probably to clear out the bad data - I’ll try to edit that page and see if that does the trick (once the page refreshes, overnight). If not, it might be one we have to live with for now, yucky though it is!

Okay. In case you need to know the title, the one you want is “Sautè Shrimp”.
