bug
[edit]Rillke: On mediaWiki:invisible characters unveiled.js after typing "😥" I get this:
URIError: URI malformed encodeURIComponent (native)() /w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Invisible_characters_unveiled.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript:171:12 handleChange()

- the Unicode emoji 😥 is actually two characters, "�" and "�". And neither of them are valid when alone.
I'll try to fix this. - --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 16:34, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
CLDR lookup

Categorising CJK Unified Ideographs
[edit]Hi - I've been trying to sort out CJK Unified Ideographs, given that they've often been uploaded in quite a piecemeal state, and it makes the most sense to follow the established convention of having a category for each character, which can then be placed within other supercategories as applicable. Currently, many are just dumped in vague groupings, which makes them difficult to find at best. For example, Extension G.
It seems that the title blacklist prevents characters from Extensions E through G from being used in article titles. That makes sense given the stated issues with file uploads, but could categories please be placed on the whitelist? It would be really irritating to have inconsistent categorisation just for these.

- Yug and me are experiencing the same trouble, see File talk:𡦂-order.gif. It's time to update the blacklist to the current Unicode version, 14.0. OMG, the Unicode block CJK Unified Ideographs Extension E was introduced with Unicode 8.0 in June 2015, and now we're almost 2022. Love —LiliCharlie (talk) 14:34, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

Can't use "🜍"
[edit]Can't tell what's wrong with this that I'm blocked from using it. Normal Unicode block, copied from Wikt entry, can't see any VS attached. Kwamikagami (talk) 15:07, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
