On that same page there are quite a few places where it seems that somebody's word processor inserted non-translatable "smart quotes".

I think this is all fixed now. I eventually ended up going through all the FAQs inside the Content Management System and looking for the 'smart quotes have messed things up' symbol. While I found and corrected some of what you list here, in other cases it seemed to be that someone had beaten me to it. Or maybe I just missed it.
If you would like to recheck these and, if there are any still messed up, indicate which FAQ question they are a part of (the FAQ Q&As are each separate entries in the CMS) that would be very helpful.
Thanks!
