Thanks for reporting this. It looks like newly added categories are getting mangled this way because Parsoid was rolled back to a version that does not recognize the new mw:PageProp/Category type we're sending it. Gabriel and I are looking into the possibility of redeploying Parsoid with the UTF8 bug fixed later today.

Fixed in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/93640
