Text Encoding

Great tool overall - thanks for the effort.

We're having some issues with non-ASCII text. If a URL has non-ASCII characters (eg something from Japanese Wikipedia - https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%8F%E3%83%AF%E3%82%A4%E5%B7%9E) it won't scrape correctly. If you paste in the text instead, TimeLineCurator still grabs dates correctly, but the text is mangled rather than accurately representing the characters - see below.
