Hi Max,
You reached me! You have an interesting setup - Data Transfer doesn't export CSV, so I'm guessing that what you're doing is producing a CSV file via a Semantic MediaWiki query, then importing that. Is that right?
In DT's Special:ImportCSV interface, you can choose whether to use UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding. Have you tried both?

Hello
I hope I can reach Yaron Koren with my question on this list:
Context: I use extension Data Transfer version 0.6.1 (and earlier) to export pages in a .CSV-file from one wiki and import that .CSV-file into another wiki. In the exportfile the new pagetitle is choosen to be one of the semantic properties. In the first wiki and the .CSV-file I use UTF-8 characters with accents. So far so good.
Question: Until Data Transfer 0.6.1 the characters with accents were imported and arrived without problem in the second wiki; After implementing Data Transfer 0.6.2 this is no longer the case.
For instance UTF-8 character %C3 %A9 shown as expected as é in the first wiki, is shown as é after import in the second wiki.
What can be the problem?
Kind regards,
Max Hendriks
