--- Comment #1 from Urs Fleisch <ufleisch at users.sourceforge.net> ---
If you click "Edit..." when the Arranger is active, you will see that this is a
TIPL (ID3v2.4) or IPLS (ID3v2.3) frame. You can also find this in the frame
list in the handbook
(https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kid3/kid3/commands.html#frame-list) where the
mapping of Arranger to different tag formats can be seen. Below the table,
there is an explanation:

The frames Arranger and Performer use a particular format for their contents:
"involvement 1|involvee 1|involvement 2|involvee 2|...", for instance "Chorus
Master|Ernst Dunshirn|Soprano Vocals|Anna Netrebko". This will create IPLS
(ID3v2.3) or TIPL/TMCL (ID3v2.4) frames with a string list in the specified
format (the "|" is used as a separator between the strings). Values in this
format are also set when importing data from servers which offer this
information.

So you have to enter for example "Chorus Master|Ernst Dunshirn" and not just
"Ernst Dunshirn", there must be both parts, involvement and involvee, just
adding a "|" is not enough.

You can find the same information in the ID3v2 specification, e.g.
https://github.com/id3/ID3v2.4/blob/master/id3v2.4.0-frames.txt, 4.2.2.
Involved persons frames. If you do not want to adhere to the standard, you can
switch the red errors off in the settings, tab Tag/Tag 2, "Mark standard
violations". If you do not want to use a "TIPL" or "IPLS" frame, you could use
a TXXX frame with description ARRANGER, just click "Add...", then enter
"!ARRANGER" (exclamation mark to force this name and not use the mapping), then
you will have such a TXXX frame and you can enter whatever you want.
