Links to map coordinates in Wikipedia are altered by DU4.

They used to work in the just replaced DU.

See:

The link to the map doesn't work. DU's software tries to turn the character string "& p a r a m s" into "¶ m s". I can't think of a workaround. I've had to add spaces here to keep it from being altered.

Thanks for the report.

2. Also, DU4 turns the single and double quotation marks at Wikipedia map links into

question marks. I can replace them with other quotation marks from my keyboard.
