Could you maybe report this here https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/issues
Or give us steps to reproduce so we can try to fix it. Please make sure to mention any plugin that are active that could influence the outcome of the action.
If you have the Developers plugin enabled you can go to Admin -> Develop -> Inspect -> Actions Search for 'thewire/add' and if that is not '/mod/thewire/actions/add' then a plugin is taking over the action. Try disabling the plugin and try again. If there is no issue, then it's not a core issue and you should contact the plugin developer.
You are NOT using the latest version of Elgg 5.1 if you are on Elgg 5.1.9.
The bug you have has mostly likely been fixed in Elgg 5.1.10:
thewire: correctly handle string length for multi-byte charactersNow there's already Elgg 5.1.11 available. Please upgrade, test and only report a bug if you still have the problem also with Elgg 5.1.11.

I have added country black list but still getting spams. Now i am dding deny from from ipaddress/24 or /16 in httacess.
I am also having issues with CkEditor on oEmbed app, where I see if I share a video link in comment, it does nice embedding of the youtube video...But if I do that in a Blog, or if I do the same inside the Wire, with the Wire Tools plugin also installed - the embedding does not happen....Do I need to place the apps in certain configuration for this to work...
Are you sure that code is working for you...
Its still giving me the same error...
