[OSM-talk] Invisible character LRM in some website values

[John Packer]

Today I found out a *funny* thing.
It seems some values for the keys 'website' and 'contact:website' have a
LRM character at it's end.
That's not something good because it "corrupts" the URL. (example)

On taginfo: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=website%3D%E2%80%8E
Example of an overpass to find this: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/3bW

I manually fixed these things on Brazil, could someone fix this on the rest
of the world?
You will most likely need an automated solution, because there are around
400 cases of this left.

It seems this also affect other keys (like
phone<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=phone%3D%E2%80%8E>),
but the problem is not as bad as in the keys 'website' and
'contact:website'.

Cheers,
John
