Thread:Project:Support desk/1.17, 1.18, 1.19, 1.20, 1.21 Critical bug - lack of translation of page name to suitable encoding - whole site is broken by update scripts (not updated)/reply (2)

Current version of MediaWiki is 1.16.5.

My 'page' collocation is utf8-default collation and 'page_title' is utf8-.

As far as know database - collation is only for sorting - storage is determined by encoding.

Whatever 'Strona główna' is stored as 'Strona gÅ‚Ã³wna' - what type of encoding is used for it - it is decoded correctly since MediaWiki transform with magic code 'Strona gÅ‚Ã³wna' into 'Strona główna' (what is valid).

How to convert 'Strona gÅ‚Ã³wna' to 'Strona główna' inside database?
