Description
When an article title contains backslash, it is not changed into dash by the Newscoop engine (since backslash is an allowed character for URLs) when putting it into a href link directing to that article.
However webkit-based browsers suppose that the original intent was to put a slash there, as for path separation. And those browsers do that change, with a result of a wrong URL, without showing the linked article.

You can test it by setting an article title into st. like "Some \ title".
Please, use the cs-4003-fix-webkit-article-urls branch.
