i have to add something about problem.
Turkish Character problem exists mostly if first letter of the word is a Turkish special like İ (İstanbul) or Ç (Çanakkale). After importing the csv file if first letter of word is İ,Ç, Ş, Ö then this characters omitted-blank at imported word.
In database tables it is also omitted.
İstanbul becomes stanbul. İzmir becomes zmir.
Üniversite becomes niversite.

i attached sample csv as text file.
baris

Same problem with regular latin characters like àáãâéê...
First character is removed.

Hi,

You need to protect terms beginning with a non-ascii letter with quotation marks as "émotion".

I make a patch where I indicate it in the help (and other improvments), but it's a it's a php and not a Drupal bug. See http://drupal.org/node/377056.

Sincerly,

Daniel Berthereau

Hi,

Could you tell me which releases of taxonomy_csv and Drupal do you use?

Generally, when you use neither only ascii characters neither utf8 encoded file, you need to protect all your terms with quotation marks, as :

"Süleyman","Türk Kağanları ve Sultanları","Süleyman TÜRK"

Furthermore, "tab" separator between fields, as in comment # 1, is currently not supported.

You can save your file with quotes and utf-8 encoding with OpenOffice Calc to avoid problems.

Regards,

Daniel
