New subject: [xwiki-users] non-english languages

Youcef,

...
  Convert your data encoding to utf-8, the procedure to
configure utf-8 under
 xwiki it is well explained (I dont remember the link, but try to find it).
 All PB with encoding will be solved for each language! 
  thank you for quick response, but can't agree with you. I tried to
  use UTF-8 - the same problems with search and page naming.

  btw, how-to for UTF-8 is not very well in "database" part. For
  instance, text "change the mysql encoding to UTF-8 (check it using
  "show variables")" should be replaced by following instruction
  (based by my experience):

  1. (For MySQL 4.1.x) Create database with default UTF-8 encoding.
  Example: CREATE DATABASE xwiki DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8;

  2. Add these lines to WEB-INF\hibernate.cfg.xml (don't know, why
  team suggest to use my.cnf setting for this instead of configure a
  DB pool connection):
  <property name="connection.characterEncoding">utf8</property>
  <property name="connection.useUnicode">true</property>
