If the idea is, for example, to give the spelling of a historical figure in Ottoman Turkish in the Arabic alphabet, then it's certainly acceptable.

Hoi Gerard,
Can you give us some more background to this request? If I remember correctly, there was some discussion a while ago about the difference between Modern Turkish and Ottoman Turkish. So what’s the deal with [ota] in Wikidata?
Cheers,
Oliver

Hoi,
I want to ask you for eligibility for Ottoman Turkish (ota) for use in Wikidata.
Thanks,
Gerard
