[edit] Notability

I don't think that this alphabet deserves an article of its own. I can't see that anybody ever used it and it can hardly be even called "a proposal" - the guy who developed it died before he actually proposed it to any educational institution.

Now it appears on a website that belongs to a font design company, which is little more than advertising (although i assume good faith.)

If this page is really important to someone, maybe it can be merged into Latin alphabet, although i would just delete it, as i can hardly see any significant external sources. --Amir E. Aharoni 12:14, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Google result count means very little. The word alphabet is quite likely to appear near the number 26, since the Latin alphabet does have 26 letters. This system is mentioned on a few blogs, but i wouldn't say that it asserts notability.

I give up the PROD, but i restored the notability template. --Amir E. Aharoni 07:51, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

I tried proposing this for deletion, but CaliforniaAliBaba turned my attention to the fact that the inventor of this system is notable. So i withdrew the AfD and, like CaliforniaAliBaba, i propose a merger. --Amir E. Aharoni 19:07, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Merged. --Amir E. Aharoni 09:14, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
