message: I do not speak Uyghur or Arabic, but I'm interested in alphabets and scripts. Comparing the sample text in the Wikipedia article and at Omniglot, I see that the UEY counterparts to ULY "e" and "é" are not correctly shown to me (the former always as an isolated Arabic letter ae, the latter always as an isolated Arabic letter alef maksura, except at the end of words). Is it just a matter of the standard fonts (I have not installed a special Uyghur font)?
I've found only the basic Arabic letter ae in Unicode without any representation forms, and the basic Arabic letter alef maksura with an isolated and a final representation form, and with a medial and an initial representation form Arabic letter uighur kazakh kirghiz alef maksura (Unicode seems to be too thrifty there). So where does the information come from, how to show the correct forms? -- Sinnierer (talk) 15:03, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Not all the "alphabets" described here are true alphabets; Old Uyghur and Chaghatai-Arabic were more like abjads.  I think Uyghur script(s) would be more appropriate. Mar de Sin Speak up! 04:05, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I have been trying to clean up both this article, and the sections in the Uyghur language-article where the writing of Uyghur is mentioned, and the different uses of alphabets, scripts and orthographies is very confusing indeed. Personally, I prefer using the term orthography for describing the writing of Uyghur, and I also think this article should be moved to Uyghur orthographies. I have however left some remainings of alphabets and scripts, as I am not sure what others prefer. It would be great if we could get some more opinions on this! -- Llonydd (talk) 20:16, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Only the historical writing systems of Uyghur were non-alphabetic; the modern Arabic, Cyrillic, and Latin based scripts are all true alphabets.  Either alphabet or script can be used to refer to any of the modern systems, while alphabet should not be used for the historical scripts while script, orthography etc. are fine.  I'd be in favor of moving this page to Uyghur writing systems to be consistent with pages like Mongolian writing systems. Bʌsʌwʌʟʌ Speak up! 22:46, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
