Hidden unicode char

|category= contains hidden unicode chars, DEL and LRM (if you use Chrome, notice how the spellchecker underlines part of the word as misspelled instead of the whole word when in the editor). However, note that this is still a valid category (link for Category:Østfold geography stubs is blue, not red), so it should not be sorted under 'S' in Category:Stub message templates needing attention (though it should still be sorted under 'N' for having other non-existing cats) and that the invalid char will still be outputted to the article (and would break the pseudo-categories, but should not affect actual categories)
