Instinct says probably a mixture of B and C, since we're talking copy and paste. MediaWiki doesn't know copy and paste exists - it's not something handled with PHP at all.

Hallo!

at the beginning of http://yi.wiktionary.org/wiki/project:bugzilla/02042#more_test_links_availab... there are three links regarding tests with *Unicode Character NO-BREAK SPACE - U+00A0* 1.. project:bugzilla/02042/ - tried to generate the UTF-8 character with "copy and paste" in Firefox 2.. project:bugzilla/02042/ - tried to generate the UTF-8 character with "copy and paste" in Outlook Express 3.. project:bugzilla/02042/ - tried to generate the UTF-8 character with "copy and paste" in Word 4.. project:bugzilla/02042/ - generated with   5.. project:bugzilla/02042/ - generated with  

I copied the fourth link on a Windows XP SP2 system

1 in Firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7) 2 in Outlook Express 3 in Word

However I was not able to copy   and generate the correct link using an UTF-8 character.

Is this a) a MediaWiki character conversion issue b) an issue related to the operating system c) an issue related to the used programs

Would be happy about your feedback.
