Dear Asian Wikipedia editors,
I found some scripts which are used in Asia. I would like to ask the following list covers all scripts. In addition to confirming this, I would be happy, if you can test the script on English Wikipedia.
Korean Khmer Japanese Burmese Lao Thai Khmer Yi Lontara Carakan Sinhala Surat Batak Tibetan Oriya Gurmikhi Kannada Devanagari Telugu Gujarati Malayalam Bengal Tamil Thaana
Kind regards, Cheol

Hello, visual editor developers and language engineers.
As you know, some scripts are not supported by visual editor yet. I know you are working very hard to deploy the visual editor to other projects.
I started a table on meta, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Visual_Editor/Asian_language_support, to share the current state for Non-roman scripts support in Visual Editor. I could meet various scripts users at an Asian meetup in Wikimania HK. We talked on the issue and hoped to assist the efforts. I would try to summarize the status and request testings of VE to the Asian Wikimedians who use the various scripts.
I would like to hear what the visual editor team and team language engineering team think about this page. I think the name of the table could be expanded to include the other non-roman scripts.
Cheol,
Thank you for this; it's a great tool to help make sure that VisualEditor works for everyone as soon as possible, and yes, expanding to other scripts seems sensible. Will follow-up on-wiki.

Off the top of my head, this list is missing the Mongolian, Javanese, and Balinese scripts. None of which are currently in wide use on Wikimedia projects as far as I am aware, but maybe they're just waiting for a visual editor implementation :-).
There is also Chinese syllabary in its various variants, which may or may not meet your definition of a "script". There are also languages like Vietnamese which use modified versions of European scripts. Also the Arabic and Hebrew scripts, if you consider that to be "Asian" for this purpose, and come with their own complications.
Cheers, Craig
