April 2023

Information icon Hello, Vanisaac. I noticed that your recent edit to Da (Indic) added a link to an image on an external website or on your computer, or to a file name that does not exist on Wikipedia's server. For technical and policy reasons it is not possible to use images from external sources on Wikipedia. Most images you find on the internet are copyrighted and cannot be used on Wikipedia, or their use is subject to certain restrictions. If the image meets Wikipedia's image use policy, consider uploading it to Wikipedia yourself or request that someone else upload it. See the image tutorial to learn about wiki syntax used for images. Thank you. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 05:30, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics

Can you tell me where Andrew Dalby's "Dictionary Of Languages" says these are derived from Devanagari? I can't seem to find that in the copy I have. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 23:51, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Now that's a very different story than you had before. I've added an online reference that I know supports it now. But I highly disagree with you blanking entire sections of content because you disagree with one particular claim within that section. There is a lot of content on Wikipedia that makes the connection between handwritten Devanagari script and the letterforms for the original Ojibway syllabics, and it does so without being contested even when it's not explicitly cited everywhere. But I do have a more direct citation of it now: Zui. "Writing in North America — Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics". The Language Closet. Retrieved 2 April 2023. VanIsaac, GHTV contWpWS 00:04, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, but more sources would be helpful, because the previous ones didn't seem to mention the connection. And it just took me a while to find a copy. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 00:05, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Proper font support" on Kaktovik numerals

I'm not objecting to your restoration of text, but I too cannot see the numerals in question — and this is even after I installed the two fonts at the first external link, rebooted my computer, and tried two different browsers. So I support also restoring the SVG characters, at least until the Unicode works (not just for me). – Raven  .talk 02:54, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another article title we might want to reconsider. — kwami (talk) 05:27, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
