As Vincent does ask, have you configured your XWiki
installation for
UTF-8 ?
Nope. Current encoding is ISO-8859-1
But if it avoids me to remove db entries, I'm gonna configure it as soon as I can.
I've read http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Encoding
Some questions :
1 - I already have a good load of content, can I switch to UTF-8 without wrecking the
wiki ?
2 - I use Oracle 10G. It's likely that I have to configure UTF-8 as its default
character set. As anyone done that already ?
Thanks for your help.
Xwiki is a great product.

Anyway,
don't you think this issue is worth a JIRA issue?
My first issue... XE-182
I supposed a
discussion here is not needed to create such an issue, but I > would like to know if
there is some reason to allow all this characters
like /, \ or ~ that cause problems with documents and attachments names.
Of course it could be considered a naming convention not to use this
characters, but if we/I what to promote the use of XWiki among users that
are not aware of this problems and usually use this characters (and others
like, ñ, á, é, ö,... ) while naming files and folders.
On my side, users upload attachements with é à / ~ in their names because they can and
they are not aware that it causes some troubles later.
Those who were trapped do not include special characters anymore but a new user would
certainly include those characters.
