It's a DW bug.

Some posts are fine, but if one bookmark out of the group being autoposted has say, an accented character or curly quotes (shudder) or even an ampersand in it, it imports and displays, but the entire post can't be edited--you just get an error message. It's similar to the journal import errors related to special characters.

Since we have multiple people collecting bookmarks and there's some non-English fic we're linking to, it wasn't feasible to edit each bookmark to take out the characters that are at issue.
