Cyrillic articles names are incorrect

[Игорь Шахбазян]

Hello!

We run Confluence Server 7.13.0. We faced such a problem:

• Links to articles with English names are looking fine (for example, we create an article in the TRAIN space, and we name it "New Article". And the link is https://<confluence_instance>/display/TRAIN/New+Article)\
• Links to articles with Russian names do not work correctly. We create another article in this space, and we name it "Новая статья" (which is "New article" in Russian). And the link is https://<confluence_instance>/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=41291643

What is the problem? How can we fix it?

Hi @Игорь Шахбазян This seems like a bug like Velizar mentioned, you can view it here, login with your atlassian account to vote for it and watch it for further updates.

Please also refer this link for troubleshooting character encoding issues.

Hi Игорь!

That's actually an expected behavior and it is around since confluence was firstly introduced. The background of the problem is the cyrillic alphabet appears with a special symbol when translated into ASCII. Here's one request that's still "Under consideration" about fixing this one.

Hope that helped!
Cheers!

Hm, it seems that it will be never implemented for Confluence Server (in view of that no new feature development was announced after February 2, 2022 PT).
