If I want to give a conclusion summary after visual editing in wikitionary.de I am offered some special characters in the field "Einfügen" below. But I am not able to click them.

I can; the cursor won't change shape, but I seem to be able to click on them. It's just that then they don't appear in the dialog. Is this the same for you? Best,
Right. The cursor doesn't change shape and the characters don't appear in the dialog, which should be the aim of the action according to my understanding. I have to apologize for my poor English. You happen to understand German? Greetings
Please do not apologize for using English here! I don't understand German, but I think your English so far has been great and enough for anyone to understand what the problem is about. Now I'll gather info on what's happening there.
So far what I can say is that the way the Polish Wikipedia has made it possible to add stuff to the edit summary is via a gadget: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-edit-summaries.js .
So, the "charinsert" tag at https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikimedia-copyrightwarning evidently doesn't allow for those special characters to be added to the edit summary.
If you need the special characters when you are editing any page, you can simply use the Special Character menu (the Omega button on the toolbar). You probably want that set of characters to be added to the Often Used section, though. There are instructions at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Special_characters to help you create and configure https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Visualeditor-quick-access-characters.json .
Instead, if you wanted the special characters to be added to the edit summary, I think you need some kind of JavaScript gadget or something, like the one I linked above.
Mille grazie per le tue soccorrevoli risposte ed informazioni. Scriverò un' indicazione nella Teestube del Wikitionario tedesco per i nostri esperti software. Saluti, Peter
