Disappearing Landmarks?

I have two characters that have built wooden landmarks. One of them, finished and was missing the last half of what it was supposed to say. The other, finished, and the landmark didn't even show up. It's not there. A little help please?

It's been a few days since they've been finished and they didn't. But now they just did. Dunno if someone fixed it already or not, but they're there now.

I only fixed one whilst waiting for the info - the latest one finished 4 hours ago (or 16 hours ago) which was missing completly ...
.. PM me with the missing text on the other one . (EDIT: Oh yes and I fixed some misisng text on one as well so that may be it)
Generally punctuation in names of buildings, vehicles and landmarks causes problems in particular commas, colons and semi-colons.
This will be resolved but in the mean time report any problems and we will make a manual correction

While we're at it, what about, å, ä and ö (and ü for the germans)? Will those cause problems?

I believe those particular letters don't cause problem, as I think they are in the Latin 1 Supplement range of the Unicode character sets.
Generally apart form the 3 exceptions I mentioned above ( commas,semi-colons and colons) all Unicode characters in the Basic Latin and Latin 1 Supplement set are fine
Character with higher unicode values can cause problems , this effects some of the Polish, Russian and Lithuanian language characters
But as I also said this will be resolved in the near future .
