          Description

          Background

          We’ve identified an issue with special characters in contact names returned from the NameSilo API.

          Example:

          • Jo[A with tilda]o is returned as João

          When parsing the XML response, we receive errors such as:

          Entity 'atilde' not defined
Entity 'ordm' not defined

          This results in XML parsing failures (LibXMLError code 26) and causes the page to fail loading in certain views (specifically where the response is parsed as XML).

          See attached markdown file for full report. It contains special characters as examples that cannot be pasted into this task.
