Useful?

I don't see how this is a useful article. We are interested in Simple English not letters from other languages. I read the article and found it totally confusing and useless. Should we be focusing our efforts on non-English alphabets? fr33kman 13:47, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fr33kman I don't think so. Shouldn't we be focusing on English things? Aster🪻 talk edits 13:57, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why would we not be interested in other languages? We are an encyclopedia and are not limited to English letters, and certainly not "English things". The language that we use on this Wikipedia should not solely influence our scope. --Ferien (talk) 14:14, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does that mean we should have an article on every letter of every language? Arabic, Hebrew, Thai? What use does that do for our mission? fr33kman 14:19, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Articles on letters in other languages with other alphabets at least could be helpful to those studying other languages, and we are here to help non-native English speakers (among other groups). The same question could perhaps be asked about French villages, where we probably have an article on every single one at this point. --Ferien (talk) 15:29, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just a note here. Although there are many languages, a lot of them share same letters. I think having a collective page for all the letters of one script and redirecting all this kind of page into that one might be a good idea. This will ease the readers trying to learn.

@Fr33kman: We use English in our articles, but articles are not limited to English-related things. I don't find the article confusing at all, and I think it has enough information for its own article. -- Auntof6 (talk) 15:00, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
