   Just found about a French MP with a slash in her last name : Emeline K/Bidi. I’ve never seen that before! https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emeline_K/Bidi

   One more concrete example for the "Falsehoods Programmers Believe About Names" article

     @Siph I'm surprised that doesnt break the wikipedia url since that's the path separator. Surely it should require the / be replaced with %2F unless theres some custom url parsing shenanigans at play to allow it to work there
