Discussion

Most of these look to be useful, but I think we should omit the following, which are of limited importance: Arabic Chat Alphabet, Byblos syllabary, D with stroke, Deseret alphabet, History of the IPA, Linear A, Ogham, Rongorongo. Please can you indicate the approximate quality assessment of each? I didn't look at every one, but most seem to be B, with only a few high/top Starts (which is OK).

I've now added all the details after each article, and put my proposals in bold. Looking at this list again now, I think I'd like to include Ogham and Rongorongo after all. Also, although the article on Å is classed as "low" for the project, looking at "what links here" and interwiki links, it seems important enough to include. Please give us some more input before we go ahead and pass these! Thanks, Walkerma 03:46, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The Byblos syllabary (that I've done some cleanup on) is an important document, felt by some scholars working on it (cited in article) to be ancestral to Hebrew script and eventually our own alphabet. --Fire Star 火星 16:14, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, these 31 have been included in Version 0.7 (including the Byblos syllabary, thanks for the cleanup). Walkerma 05:12, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
