thread_title:  Why is there, in this entry, a different pronunciation than the one the Russian Entry? 

message: If Broad On deserves its own article, others like Crossed O, Cyrillic Double O, O with left notch and O with open bottom need to be on this article, not only because they're similar to this letter but also because they're just variants. To those who object the article about Broad On to be merged into this article, why do you think it's distinguished from Cyrillic O, despite being considered similar? Besides the fact that those aforementioned pages only have small information. 4lepheus B4ron (talk) 10:30, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Rock Springs massacre

message: The article isn't in terrible shape but I think it needs some improvement to meet the FA criteria. For example, despite considerable later coverage of the incident, the article still cites 1885 press coverage. I don't think that qualifies as a "high-quality reliable source" per the FA criteria. Besides the downsides of breaking news as a source, contemporary press has been criticized for being racist. Instead, the article should have a section based on secondary sources that discusses the contemporary press coverage. (t · c) buidhe 02:36, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Open O

message: In this article I read: “In ASCII, the minuscule ɔ can be typed by pressing Alt+596.”
That has no meaning. ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a 7-bit character code. Therefore all of its characters have numbers between 0 and 127.
Alt + 596 has nothing to do with ASCII. 596 is the decimal form of the UNICODE number for the character ɔ ( (596)10 = (254)16 ) and Alt + 596 is a way to type this character in a handful of Windows programs. That only works in Windows and not with every piece of software.

message: I recall hearing more of the history of the PanNigerian alphabet project than is related in this article.

replies: text: Haven't been able to get to that, but another historical note worth pursuing either for this article or another related one, is that there was apparently an effort before Nigerian independence to adapt the Africa Alphabet to Nigerian languages. Among the differences was the use of modified Latin letters rather than the subdot letters.I encountered reference to the ensuing controversy in something written about Igbo language, but do not have sufficient detail to write it up further. In the case of Igbo, the Onwu orthography c.1960 relied on the earlier usages. The Pan Nigerian alphabet, in effect, codifies such older usage for all Nigerian languages. --A12n 14:52, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pentadic numerals

message: I've deleted this, as it constitutes a mistaken line of reasoning known as argumentum ad logicam or argument from fallacy. Incidentally, I can't see the claim made anywhere in the article cited here to back it up: The Kensington Stone - Fiction or Historical Truth?. Nordling appears to already believe in the authenticity of the Kensington runestone, regardless of the lack of medieval verification for positional pentimal numerals. All he says on the Kensington numerals is that the carver used a kind of rune figures, the prototype of which are (sic.) found in a Latin book by Ole Worm printed in 1643. Since this supplies less information on pentimal numbers than the Wikipedia article itself, I don't think there's any harm in losing the link. Dependent Variable (talk) 17:28, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
