Hoi,

I have added it to the Bugzilla bug that asks for the creation of the gu.wikisource.org and the template on Meta as well.

Thanks,

To be very honest, I didn't know anything about webfonts. But yes, you're right. It will definitely help us to have it. Unfortunately, I am sailing out of the uk in couple of hours and will be back on tuesday. Now am on mobile, but won't be using my data while in amsterdam tomorrow. So not sure whether I'll be able to update the template. Will it be ok for you to add it? I'll appreciate if this could be done.

Hoi,

I noticed on the request for the approved Gujarati Wikisource that Narayam is requested. What I do not understand is why WebFonts is missing. Particularly for a Wikisource there are many advantages of having WebFonts. I blogged about this in the last month quite regularly.

• a different font may be used to indicate the age of a document
• fonts for scripts that are extinct but are relevant to a project may be available .... eg Cuneiform
• for the Sanskrit texts it may be possible to have fonts for the Brahmic script to represent the original source properly

All in all, I really like to encourage you to consider WebFonts for the Gujarati Wikisource from its start.

Thanks,

     Gerard
