Thanks, Tilman. The "Unicode" SM has been posted. I'm hoping to schedule
the SM for the "Wikipedia For Schools" post asap, any suggestions for
those?
Thanks,
Carlos M.

Hi all,
Here is the SM for today's two(2) blog posts regarding the Wikipedia for
Schools project and the new Unicode font converter for Odia. Thanks for
taking a look:

Odia language gets a new Unicode font converter
t: Using the Unicode standard @psubhashish & company is making material
in
Odia searchable on the
internet:

t : How do you search the internet without being able to use the correct
font code? The Odia community is doing
this:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/06/20/odia-language-gets-a-new-unicode-font…
f/g: With a sea of material in the Odia language unsearchable on the
Internet, the new Unicode font converter hopes to bridge the gap and make
this information available for all to use.

I don't think we can assume that the audience already know what Odia
is. Also, we should try to indicate how this is related at all to
Wikipedia/Wikimedia. How about these instead:
T: Odia #Unicode converter by @psubhashish and other Wikipedians makes
this Indian language more accessible on the web
FB/G+: There is a sea of material in the Odia language that is
unsearchable on the Internet. With a new Unicode font converter,
Indian Wikipedians hope to bridge the gap and make this information
available for all to use.
