OK, now I'm really confused. Look at this:

http://techbase.kde.org/api.php?action=query&prop=info&pageids=9156|6713&inprop=url&export

in 2010, Ytsma moved the page from the (correct, if read as UTF-8) "Localization/fy/Fryske kompj%C3%BBterwurden" to the (correct, if read as latin-1) "Fryske_kompj%FBterwurden". This is also where the content now is, but it's inaccessible from the web UI, and only accessible by ID from the API!
