Hi! Can anyone tell me, please, what to do with characters (Baltic fonts) which do not appear correctly in lv.wikipedia.com? I can see, Czechs have solved similar problem. Typing ā and ņ is quite silly, doesn't it? Especially because every third character in Latvian looks like this.:) Please, help me! I am starting Latvian Wikipedia, and it cannot develop until the problem is solved.
Some German texts are also affected (e.g., articles on Polonian, Czech, Hungarian, etc. cities or persons).
Well, I type simply Hungarian (my input is UTF-8 I presume) and everything works; some chars stay as they are (8859-1 for sure does) and others convert "themselves" to ų and like. No problem so far. Probably requires a fair browser utf-8 implementation though.
