 New Comment:

The issue is most probably the value stored in the database (on master.php.net). Peter's user page [1] on master, for example, shows the same problem.

If that is the case, we should get an "admin" [2] or someone with access to the box [3] to fix up the data.

Description:
------------
Apparently, character encodings are mixed up on people.php.net.
See, for instance, <https://people.php.net/?page=16>, where the
name of "Johannes Schlüter" is UTF-8 encoded, while the name of
"Peter Hüwe" is not (the ü is substituted by a REPLACEMENT
CHARACTER).

Furthermore the Content-Type of the document is specified as
"text/html" only (without a charset), so contemporary browsers are
supposed to assume UTF-8, while older browsers might assume
another character encoding.
