Good article reassessment for Sinhala script

[edit]

Sinhala script has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the reassessment page. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. Onegreatjoke (talk)

Origin of the alphabet

[edit]

In a lot of articles (Proto-Sinaitic script, History of the alphabet#Semitic alphabet, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Aleph#Origin, Bet (letter)#Origin, Gimel, Dalet, He (letter)#Origins, Waw (letter)#Origin, etc.), the letters of our alphabet are claimed to be derived from hieroglyphs. This, however, is a minority view the contenders of which contradict each other in the details. Therefore an encyclopedia should not represent this as a fact, as we currently do in all these articles. Please join the discussion at Talk:Proto-Sinaitic script#A complete misrepresentation of the history of writing so we can achieve a consensus before changing all these articles. --Daniel Bunčić (de wiki · talk · en contrib.) 14:00, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Emphasis marks

[edit]

I created a discussion at WikiProject Linguistics about the article emphasis mark that is possibly relevant to editors of this project. Feel free to participate if you wish. ★Trekker (talk) 12:03, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
