Talk:Cyrillic alphabets

message: The Cyrillic alphabet article is way too long.  I am splitting it in a manner similar to Latin alphabet and Alphabets derived from the Latin.  There doesn't seem to be a standard naming scheme for this type of article, and I'm uncomfortable using "derived" here since it seems rather politically loaded (I don't know enough about the history of Cyrillic).  Feel free to rename/edit/etc. Franzeska 16:35, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Removed the "but Cyrillic is seldom if ever used in today's practice" as it is utter nonsense.
Every formal text produced by government or government bodies has to have a Cyrillic copy/be published in Cyrillic as well, and Cyrillic is still being taught in primary schools - a practice required by law. (Page 2, act 7. Sorry, Bosnian only.)--89.146.134.16 (talk) 14:57, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

message: According to this map, Serbia is "the country that use Cyrillic as the one main script". That's not true, Standard Serbian language uses both Cyrillic and Latin script.--109.121.51.138 (talk) 20:49, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I suggest linking the Cyrillic alphabet page to the Latin alphabet page. Perhaps also the Greek alphabet page though not with much priority. 
It's good to link the Cyrillic alphabet page to Chinese and Japanese syllabaries. Speling12345 (talk) 3:05, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

message: Bulgarian is indeed a South Slavic language, but her script never got touched by Vuk KARADZIC´'s 1817 reform.
Better division: Traditional scripts vs. Vuk Stefanović Karadžić's scripts, or the like.

message: Under the heading "Belarussian alphabet" the diagram shows a curly letter between Ya and the apostrophe (right at the end). This letter is not attested in the Belarussian alphabet link, does not appear on Belarussian keyboards, nor have I been able to find it by typing "Belarussian alphabet" into Google image search or visiting websites that provide resources for learning Belarussian. I would venture to say it is a made-up letter, but am not an expert – if someone with a comfortable aptitude in the relevant realm could skance it over and affirm, one would be muchly grateful. If it is a made-up letter, a new alphabet image needs to be produced and uploaded, then added to the page. — R160K (talk) 14:49, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It's being displayed as a Unicode character so it can hardly be made up. According to Wiktionary it's an Abkhaz letter. CodeCat (talk) 15:28, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, ҩ is an Abkhaz h, borrowed from Arabic ﮪ. Removed. —Stephen (talk) 19:53, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

message: FYI there's a separate 'ѝ' in Bulgarian. Not sure it must count as a separate letter or the '`' is just a grammatical sign to the 'и' letter. It's a fact though that there is a 'ѝ' key on Bulgarian keyboards. In phonetic key order, it is produced by hitting Shift+X. Akostadi (talk) 19:44, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Do we really need the Polish entry? This is pure hobbyist endeavour, and has no link to common or historical practice. Also, the paragraph is badly worded and badly referenced (there's mention of a "Facebook page" - which?). I would like to remove the section. Your thoughts? Jalwikip (talk) 13:29, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I agree. Even if it were better referenced, it would be WP:OFFTOPIC for this article. Essentially, it's no more than transliteration which could apply to any number of languages and scripts. I'm going to go WP:BOLD and remove it. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:14, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: No оbjection on my part. I've done lots of stuff in my life, but this was indeed little more than a hobbyist endeavour, and I'm sure the same can be said about similar projects as well. I do believe a section about Polish might be warranted, but then it should rather deal with efforts to introduce Cyrillic in Russian-occupied Poland in the 19th century. —IJzeren Jan  Uszkiełtu? 17:08, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm. I'm not sure about that. I think that's more of a :Russification or :Pan-Slavic language (or one of the surrounding articles) issue, and WP:OFFTOPIC for the scope of this article. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:26, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Russification yes, Pan-Slavic language is quite a different issue. No, it's a case more similar to that of Moldovan, except that it never worked out. —IJzeren Jan  Uszkiełtu? 22:09, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite right. My mind was wandering into other areas it spills over into... and I went too 'lateral'. It's certainly relevant to Russification, however. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 22:14, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

I suggest you to make a comment or something like this saying (stating) that Macedonian alphabet is mash of Bulgarian and Serbian so https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabets#/media/File:Macedonian_cursive_script.svg in most part is also Bulgarian cursive.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TSetso Nikolaev (talk • contribs) 06:58, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

message: If the title must to be "Cyrillic alphabets", not "Cyrillic alphabet" because that many countries using this, then change also the title about "Latin alphabet" to "Latin alphabets". 
Both alphabets have only one root or origin, all the rest being varieties. I think that "Cyrillic alphabet" is the right title for this article. Mywiki123qweasdzxc (talk) 20:15, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
