Hello there ,
We have a problem in the writing system. Currently, Tachelhit Wikipedia (
Wp/shi
https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/shi ) is built on Latin
script base. After our discussions we came to conclusion that Tachelhit
Wikipedia should be based and developed on Latin script. We also need to
change the convertor; We do have now a script converter from "Tifinagh to
Latin", but since we worked with the latin, we need to change the script
converter to "Latin to Tifinagh" for people who uses the tifinagh alphabet.
Also we do have a problem on the native name of the language, since we are
using the Berber Latin alphabet ( take a look at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berber_Latin_alphabet ) the name Tachelhit in
our latin script will be " Taclḥit ", and not " Tašlḥiyt ". this
problem is
also present in the actual script convertor we have a " ⵛ => š " while it
should be " ⵛ => c ".
I created a task in phabricator , here is the link :
