Description
When trying to upload a dataset whose authors/description contain any mention of a non-Latin character (in this case, it was Turkish for the divorce_predictors dataset found here) the following error occurs. This can be solved by replacing the characters for the time being, which are often found in either the description/author names.

Research direction
Reproduce the web upload failure with the linked Divorce Predictors dataset or another dataset containing Turkish characters, then trace the upload form's handling of author and description text. Done means datasets containing non-Latin characters or accents upload successfully without requiring character replacement.
