thread_title: Wikipedia in American Sign Language proposed

message: "There are also several proposals for typable ASCII equivalents; one of these is shown below. (For this system, Orientation symbols occur before the dez rather than being subscripted after it.)"
Which of those proposals is it? 
*It isn't my (ASCII-Stokoe notation), though it resembles it and may well be an improvement.
*It isn't Sutton's SignWriting.
*The Czech MUSSLAP site doesn't have any examples of a written notation, if they even use one. 
It seems to have been added by User:Kwamikagami, who moved this article from Sign language 02:41, 29 October 2005. Is it his invention? If so, or especially if not, he should assign appropriate credit for it. --Thnidu (talk) 19:37, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, it was just a convenience. We probably shouldn't have any ASCII equivalent at all. kwami (talk) 20:49, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, I disagree. Keep it! and make it known. --Thnidu (talk) 03:43, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay. If and until Unicode covers this, the ad hoc substitutions aren't the best, as they aren't evenly supported, so maybe we should stick with ASCII for citing examples. kwami (talk) 19:25, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Don't know about abreviated but that GIF file has been copied directly without attribution from the Signwriting web site. What's the WikiPedia policy on that?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.194.19.66 (talk) 12:06, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There is attribution. It's linked directly to the site. (If you can find where they got it from, we can ref the text.) kwami (talk) 12:46, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: This version may well be in current use. Many signs that I learned with repetition 40 years ago are often signed without repetition now. --Thnidu (talk) 05:56, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  translation 

message: I found it a bit annoying to see only “Unicode characters looking roughly similar” and “characters that only look correctly if you have the font installed”.
Could someone please add images to the article that will show exactly what the characters should look like.
Either by digitising/screenshotting the font, scanning the individual characters from a book, hand-drawing them with a drawing pad, or some other means.
Thanks!  -- pne (talk) 09:01, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

message: I started a wikibook on the most used ASL writing and notational systems. Thought some folks here might be interested in filling out the Stokoe notation section!
