Geocaches with names containing the sequence &# generate invalid listing pages, for example https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC25WQJ_how-do-i-solve-all-these-puzzle-caches This is due to &# which has to be followed by an integer and a trailing semicolon. Due to improper escaping, the page contains

  

<h1 class="visually-hidden">How Do I Solve All These &#$@! Puzzle Caches? Rätsel-Geocaches</h1>

 

instead, which fails HTML validation in Firefox for example.
