Right-clicking on the reference inspector offers to search Google for "☢"
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

In Firefox 38, when you right-click on the text in a reference inspector, you see the option Search Google for "☢" where ☢ is U+2622 RADIOACTIVE SIGN. Quite aside from the fact that Google refuses to search for this character, this option doesn't make sense in this context, since there are no ☢s in sight.

This is still happening for two other context menus : For External Link and For Formulae

I'm also seeing it when right-clicking on a template, using Firefox 38. I can't reproduce in Chromium Version 43.0.2357.81 Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit)

The fix was for all instances. If it's still appearing the code hasn't been deployed.
