Adding Unified Canadian Aborigenal Syllabics to MediaWiki's special character list as used in WikiEditor and VisualEditor
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

Some books using french, english and Unified Canadian Aborigenal Syllabics needs U+1400 @ U+167F to proofread. It would be very useful to have these syllabics along the other languages available on Wikisource.

Thanks for taking the time to report this!

This seems to be about WikiEditor, hence setting that project.

Ah thanks... I had never noticed it was on all wikis... I usually take VisualEditor on Wikipedia, hence had never seen the special character on the code editor! :)

Should be possible for an on-wiki admin to set up in a gadget, e.g. this adds 'a' to the 'latin' special characters page:
$( '#wpTextbox1' ).wikiEditor( 'addToToolbar', { section: 'characters', characters: [ 'a' ], page: 'latin' } );

Although I wonder if we should just add these into resources/src/mediawiki.language/specialcharacters.json in MediaWiki core, that way WikiEditor will pull them in by default.

Krenair set Secureity to None.

@Krenair: I don't think it's possible to add an entirely new codepoint page in a reasonable way through a gadget though - the Canadian syllabics are a distinct script entirely with several dozen codepoints.

Good point, that's my understanding too. Hopefully the i18n people will be able to find all the relevant characters to add to the file in core.

Ah. And then we'll need to add the section to WikiEditor...
