I think it's the MediaWiki software doing some 'normalization'.
I was bit by that once when putting several diacritics on _i_,
my i-breve + combining ogonek becoming i-ogonek (with dot!)+
combining breve. The trick is tu put a zero-width joiner
(conveniently ‍ in HTML) between the characters.
The best solution is to create a page page [[Finlaesk]]
which redirects
to the real page. In fact I just used my powers as
assistant admin to
do just that, as well as moving [[Fínlæ̨sk]] moved to
[[Fínlǣsk]],
again with a redirect from the old name, so now you can type
<http://wiki.frath.net/Finlaesk> in your browser to get to
<http://wiki.frath.net/F%C3%ADnl%C7%A3sk>! :-)
Hope you don't mind!
