fair enough mistakes happen no problem i am attempting to move this discussion to the talk page for the article in question however i will respond to the specific issues you seem to be having here you seem to be mincing terms view such fonts as unicode reality is actually closer to the reverse of this statement and understandably confusing very different subjects characters glyphs fonts i will try my best to address explain what i assume to be the underlying issues rather than just the symptoms the change i made to the article was nothing to do with fonts that was only apparent to you specifically the character exsited and was likely downloaded sucessfully but the font in use didn t have a glyph to display it the solution is simple use a better font if you wish to see the glyph for the character all i did was use the correct character further discussion on the article talk page once i finish typing it unicode is the standard character encoding these days all others are now considered legacy us ascii and iso can both be treated processed as utf a character encoding for unicode notable operating systems and major applications in their entirity now use unicode as their character encoding of choice adding allowing backwards compatibility where needed at least in good quality products packages this includes the majority of microsoft products u xxxx numbers are unicode code points an easy way to referrence specific characters without ambiguity and need not concern the average person browsing the web wikipedia pages are sent to you as utf unicode so you re viewing them as unicode anyway fonts for us ascii iso are inter changable in modern operating systems the software with which you re viewing this page is very likely written using unicode character encoding operating system web browser part of the reason for using the actual character natively in headings on talk pages at least was so that others could easily determine if their default system browser configuration supported a more suitable range of characters in order to be able to provide feedback about said character it s not like a missing glyph is causing an application failure in which case i could understand your concerns your claim that my point is about everybody else who can t see the font correctly is seemingly baseless where is your evidence that anyone beyond yourself is having trouble seeing the glyph for this character what about the people for whom the use of correct characters will help those using speech synthisis software if you can provide citation evidence for this rather wild claim i d like to read it otherwise i can t help but feel you re merely expressing your own wishes preferrences desires dispite the other issues what beyond the issues you ve encountered personally are the reasons behind your disagreement with my changes it seems that perhaps these articles are a little too close to your heart based on the nature and speed of your response es to the change article names here should be as simple as possible emphasis mine no article names should be as clear as possible or as simple to comprehend understand as possible or provide for simplest readability i suggest it may be worthwhile to read about the subject of usability which is the dicipline concerned with making things easy to use taking your argument further should punctuation be removed too as that would make titles much simpler although less clear removing punctuation would mitigate the need to use percent encoding in urls making mediawiki itself simpler although less flexible i realise my example is counter intuitive but it was to emphasise the point that clarity above all else is actually what s important not simplicity a parallel example is user interfaces the most usable are not those which are simplest but those which display the right information at the right time clarity i m familiar with how screen readers function operate not all ride on top of the user s browser blind people are not the only users of speech synthisis software besides you re confusing the visual rendering of a charater a glyph with the character itself and other representatinos renderings of it such as audio speech modern screen readers access the source code of the page the browser itself is just a vehicle to get to the desired page and or aquire the source code itself along with the character encoding so they re given
