Abcdarian | 26579 comments I was trying to save an author name with accent when there is another without the accent, both single-space. The accent just disappeared for me; is this something a Super can do or does the author need to contact Support?

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7858 comments The same happened to me when I tried it. He'll need to contact Support with this.

Arenda | 26447 comments An accented letter alone is not enough to properly disambiguate author profiles. The second profile will be created, but it will be impossible to choose which one will be used when entering that name. Only an extra space will properly disambiguate them.
