Description Bawolff (Brian Wolff) 2014-02-18 22:11:35 UTC
Currently I added to my .htaccess:

 AddCharset UTF-8 .html .txt .htm


I think its safe to say that in modern times, everyone uses utf-8 (especially in the multilingualness of wikimedia). I think this option should be the default option, as lots of users of tool labs probably don't know how to go about changing the default character encoding.
Comment 1 Marc A. Pelletier 2014-03-25 17:53:14 UTC
Apache is dead, long light lighttpd (which has UTF-8 as its default).
