Comment (by sowinski):
Thank you for the fast response.
I do not agree, because of this behavior it would be impossible to create
an article for the capital of Turkey while allow_unicode=True.

Maybe someone else have a international website and will hit this problem.
I solved the problem by adding the I to the regular expression.
{{{
value = re.sub(r'[^\w\si̇-]', '', value.lower())
}}}
I testes the implementation with all cities in the world with all the
different language variants of the city name and it worked for me.

It is interesting to see that this the only edge case. Not sure if this
will work in all situations. So I run only my modification if the strange
i is in the string. Otherwise is jump to the django implementation.
