This is mostly because of character set defined in your mysql database is not proper for your language. This is usually UTF-8 Unicode, and it is default.

Fix:

Changing the charecter set can be done via mysql command line.  Just login to your server via SSH and bring your mysql command line on with following command.

 mysql -h   -D   -u   -p

Now it will ask you password before giving access to mysql prompt.

ALTER DATABASE wowebmaster DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_turkish_ci \g

When you get access to mysql command line, type the above mysql command, it will change the character set of wowebmaster database to utf8_turkish_ci . That’s it. Replace the database name and the character set for your own modifications.
