We had some requests like that before, which were always rejected. One that comes to mind was Russian in the Latin alphabet._______________________________________________Vito Genovese <vitomedia@gmail.com> schrieb am Fr., 3. Juli 2020, 00:44:I agree. One of the commenters cites the case of Tajik, which I think is an unreasonable comparison. Do we have a precedent for such requests btw?_______________________________________________Asaf Bartov <abartov@wikimedia.org>, 3 Tem 2020 Cum, 00:33 tarihinde şunu yazdı:(non-member opinion)No, I don't think it does. Every now and then people come up with suggestions to Latinize certain languages (I know this well from such attempts to Latinize Hebrew). They generally don't manage to convince more than a handful of people to adopt the new scheme, and it dies on the vine. History teaches us that such fundamental changes almost only happen through the mighty instruments of the state, in concerted efforts involving mass media, school textbooks, etc.Until and unless there is evidence this Latinized Farsi has a constituency of readers and potential contributors, I'd say it doesn't merit consideration.A.
