Hi all,

While I was editing the album called "GiIvaSunner's_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6​(dot)66", I noticed that the (dot) was coded differently to "GiIvaSunner's_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6​.​66". Even though the dots look exactly the same, they are encoded (i.e. interpreted by a computer) differently

To check this, I used a Java code compiler.

The pastebin link below shows what I found. It's rather complicated, but I've tried to annotate it as best I can.

To sum it up, the periods on the album page, original article (GiIvaSunner%27s_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6.66), original category (Category:GiIvaSunner%27s_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6​.​66), new category (Category:GiIvaSunner%27s_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6.66), and redirect article (GiIvaSunner%27s_Highest_Quality_Video_Game_Rips:_Volume_6.66; linked by aforementioned "new" category) are all different.

The only periods that ARE the same are the periods on the superseded article (the redirect) and the superseded category (the new one).
