The font used on Wikipedia does not support the ADLaM characters. How do pages for other scripts handle this? What is the best way to get the characters rendered on this page? Do we have to add an image of the properly rendered characters? -- Hurtstotouchfire ( talk) 22:52, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
At various points, the script is referred to as

I've read the Microsoft.com story, and found it very interesting, even inspiring. This WP article could certainly benefit from additional info, such as MS's developing

The greatest hurdle, though, is that the page is almost entirely made up of charts. This likely means it runs counter to the policy that
Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal. In order to be an encyclopedic article, there really needs to be more prose content dealing with Adlam script, the underlying need that led to it, its creation and creators, its uptake and adoption, its usage and expansion, maybe mention of some print publications and websites that use it, and so forth. Without a much greater proportion of such content, the instructive content is vulnerable to deletion.

The number is written right-to-left, meaning that if I type "three" first, and then "two" (so the "two" is on the left, and the "three" is on the right) -- so it can be simply "thirty two"? Or is it "three and twenty", meaning "twenty two"?
