Hello,
Names with non-Latin characters in the donation comments are broken
and outputting as question marks. Some people are understandably
unhappy that their names are not appearing next to their donations.
For example, see <

Is me or maybe <form> need charset="*UTF-8*" added to it? withouth
it,
browser chose the charset to send data from the moon phase.
There's not attribute charset (there's accept-charset). Still, mediawiki
doesn't use it and it doesn't have such errors.
When not providing an accept-charset, the user agents should use the
charset on which the page was transmitted (UTF-8).
