Yesterday I have obtained the "vote down" privilege. Some days ago I have obtained this privilege in other site of StackExchange, too.
But today I see this. The URL is correct and send to here, but... what's happened?

4You seem to have obtained the secret TeX.SX priviledge to write some Chinese(???) characters in unicode font. Ask Joseph Wright about this ;-) (Ok, this comment is completely off-topic)... Strange bug it is, mmmh Yoda would say ;-) – user31729 Mar 2 '15 at 14:07

@joseph-wright, it seems that I have need your help. Now the site is all right, as yesterday. I have obtain this "secret priviledge" only for a morning. – Giacomo Alessandroni Mar 2 '15 at 14:36

Doesn't seem to be mentioned on MSE. However, a similar bug appeared couple days ago with Portuguese. This is probably of similar origin and shouldn't be persistent. – yo' Mar 2 '15 at 18:24

Do not worry. This is a minor bug (the URL was - and is - correct and now I do not see it more). I have reported it only because I do not knew if was a general problem. – Giacomo Alessandroni Mar 2 '15 at 18:31

2This is (mostly) a caching problem. We have a fix in mind, will try it out soon. – Adam Lear♦ Mar 2 '15 at 23:50

As I have said, now the site works well for me. I hope it's so for all. – Giacomo Alessandroni Mar 3 '15 at 8:16
Internationalization seems to be the Vietnam of Stack Exchange Network.
A fix has been pushed out and we've even improved the tools a bit, so hopefully this won't happen again*.
* I'm not betting on that, though :)

Ok, and thank you for your answer. But, why "Vietnam"? Google Translate says that this is Japanese and its translation is "Against vote". – Giacomo Alessandroni Mar 3 '15 at 18:33

2"Vietnam" here refers to the Vietnam War and how it was deemed "un-winnable"; I'm using it because now that we've done i18n, we're constantly finding bugs, breaking things, and adding overhead. – Jarrod Dixon♦ Mar 3 '15 at 18:48
