--- Comment #3 from 伟思礼 <Bugzilla at Groleau.Email> ---
ALL files created or edited by me are UTF-8 without BOM.

That is the default for my editor.  My locale is en_US.UTF-8

What I do frequently, is create a temporary text file with new words/phrases I
want to learn in another language.  I then copy them and paste into a
spreadsheet which contains ALL the stuff I am learning.  Finally, I export that
spreadsheet to overwrite a (non-temporary) tab-delimited file which I can then
import into Anki (https://apps.ankiweb.net).

The file command confirms that both of those files are UTF-8.

But the import dialog that comes up when I paste ALWAYS says UTF-16.  Sometimes
I forget to change it.  I do not know whether that is the cause of my Anki
problems, but I have noticed that occasionally, there is a BOM in the permanent
file, right before a recently pasted data item (not at the beginning of file). 
And sometimes there is a zero-width non-printing character in the file.

Whenever either of these spurious characters has appeared, they are always on
an item that Anki is having trouble with.
