I tried to change the sysop rights for Triebtäter (notice the a with umlaut), and it did not work. Could someone check what is going on with special caracters ?
Have you tried Triebtäter?
~these letters do not belong to my keyboard, nor do they to german language ihmo :-)
You haven't answered my question. Have you tried it?
I don't know anything about stewards and how/where they set sysop rights or anything, but if by any chance you're trying to access a database where the username is stored in UTF-8 (German Wiktionary perhaps?) via an interface that uses Latin-1 (English Wikipedia perhaps?), you will want to enter "Triebtäter".

Na. I certainly did not try such caracters Timwi.
If this is the way steward should do utf 8 on meta, I think steward needs a good documentation book.
However, meta is on utf8 (I should know, I broke it for months). So, I do not think it is the problem :-(
