#1264 Import of papers fails when it contains unicode characters that require 4 bytes in UTF-8 encoding. (project conf.researchr.org on YellowGrass.org)

Caused by database using utf8mb3 character set. Actual fix would be to convert to utf8mb4 at a carefully chosen moment after testing.

Temporal fix: use HTML entities in abstract field of papers (these are markdown, and may contain HTML). For titles (we only had 1 occurrence up till now), replace the character with a ? so the import won’t fail at the cost of this character getting lost.
