Ok, I believe we've tracked it down -- the data came through fine from PayPal, and into our primary databases, but got corrupting during copying from the primary database to the reporting database.
The corruption appears to have been due to a temporary variable in the trigger script using the default server encoding (Latin-1) instead of the encoding of the related databases (UTF-8).
I've updated the trigger to define the charset on the variable, which should hopefully fix it for new entries, and have rebuilt the reporting database so old entries are now correct.
Thank you very much!
I see that some (maybe all) Japanese names are correctly displayed. I am very glad thanks to your work.
But I have a very few dissatisfaction. Surname are displayed after personal name. As you know, in east Asia we write surname and personal name in this order.
If you had good way to correct the order of only name of east Asian (and people in other countries that have surname-personal name ordering), please do it. If not, I guess that the better way is to display like "Surname, Personal name" in all people.
This dissatisfaction is not so strong. But I feel more happy if you did anything for this problem.
By the way, I sent some mails to ML wikitech-l. But they are not in the Archive. Why?
