Category talk:Unicode
Discussion[edit]
- We should not have too long names — it is just difficult to read (and to type). Names as
Category:Unicode ####-#### Name-of-block
can be very long.- Category:Unicode is well organized when having subcategories of the Unicode Planes:
- BMP, SMP and whatever we shall need further.
- These subcategories contain itself further subcategories, the Unicode Blocks.
- Category:Unicode is well organized when having subcategories of the Unicode Planes:
- The sorting options for subcategories should always start with a space, otherwise they are all sorted to the title letter "U" - which makes not much sense.
- Within the lowest subcategory, the files should be sorted by their code point number, always in the same form
[[Category:Unicode xxxx-xxxx Block Name| U######]]
.
It seems not so easy to keep the files of the Unicode glyphs strictly within their block ranges. Unicode has (by historical reasons?) glyphs of one type often spread into different blocks;
e.g. CJK-letters are in 14 different blocks in three planes, while other Asian glyphs (Katakana, Hiragana, Bopomofo, Hangeul and many more) have their own blocks.
Depending CJK glyphs, they are all in one category — otherwise it would not be better.
This is not a meta-category[edit]
Two users already explained that it isn’t, but a lone Sarang (talk · contribs) still persists in his heresy. If one wants to have something like category: Unicode characters by block, then just make it. w:Unicode is a standard, not only a collection of characters. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 18:11, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
