# Slug bug in WordPress 3?

 * I have some pages that wouldn’t show at all but cured the problem by replacing
   the dashes in “Quick Edit” view.
 * The links appear in menus and look fine (in the status bar on hover), when clicked
   they go to a wordpress “Page not found”
 * The Slug was generated at the time of publishing so how can WordPress create 
   strange dashes? or a slug that it doesn’t recognise?
 * Anyone else encountered this problem in WordPress 3?
