That is probably because you don't have the necessary fonts installed; try
downloading and installing this font and view the pages again (you might
have to restart the browser):

Hello Jon and thank you for the clarification,
I will download the fonts and retest (I am sure it will work). But my
question is: Do we expect that every person who will open this wiki needs
to download the font? It does not seem sustainable. Or maybe some technical
solution is done after the Wiki is approved?
Best regards,
Anass

The Universal Language Selector (ULS) can provide web fonts for it, so
users don't have to download them. It is also common for wikis in
poorly-supported scripts to have a notice either on the main page or in the
sitenotice about how and where to get fonts for that language (indeed they
already do that on top of the main page for the Sylheti Wikipedia).
