Description:
there are two nasty entries on

http://wa.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sipeci%C3%A5s:Unusedimages&limit=500&offset=0

i heared about theese in MediaWiki-General on irc

the one currently at position 253 has a name that contains a single byte with a
value above $7F which is not valid utf-8 this was apparently created by
uploading from a windows 95 box the image is actually there but the image
description page link gives a bad name error.

i don't have win95 handy to test with. i tried and failed to reproduce this with
win98 second edition (with the supplied version of IE5 this is the oldest
version i have handy) and a local 1.4 test wiki

the one currently at position 256 has a totally blank name clicking on the dirct
image link gives a forbidden page from the uploads webserver. clicking the
description page gives a bad url error. This one was apparently created by
clicking upload without selecting a file.

i tired to reproduce this with a local 1.4 test wiki and just got an empty file
error

someone needs to clean up theese existing ghost images and make sure there are
sufficiant utf-8 paranoia checks that similar issues can't happen again.
