Constructed omnidirectional A to Z alphabet and 10 numbers (0 to 9)

[edit]

I have created (over a period of about 20 years) a 26 letter uppercase omnidrectional alphabet that can be viewed in any direction, any orientation in a left to right view or a right to left view or a right side up or right side down view. I have done the same for numbers from 0 to 9. These letters always look the same even if you are several persons in micro gravity in a space station, all with their bodies in several up or down postions looking at a big poster with text written with my omnidirectional letters. It is the same for a group of several people standing around a table and looking at a very big map on the table. If the names of places on the map are written with my omnidirectional letters then all the persons around the table will be able to read the names no matter where they are around the table. Here is an image of the alphabet: https://www.deviantart.com/ndgmtlcd/art/Black-version-of-my-omnidirectional-alphabet-907834206 Now, the question is where does this alphabet fit (or not) in any page on Wkipedia?

Not unless independent reliable sources have published material about it. Otherwise it is "original research" and does not belong on Wikipedia. See WP:V and WP:OR. CodeTalker (talk) 04:48, 7 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Notability

[edit]

How notable do we feel languages should have to be to be on this list? I personally feel that they should require at least a dedicated section in an article. What do others think? Pandacthulhu (talk) 17:09, 13 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

The first section says "All entries on this list have further information on separate Wikipedia articles.". I believe that's fair enough. If it has a separate article then it's notable. Joseph (talk) 17:47, 13 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Purging Bad Entries

[edit]

I removed Beama, Tchude, Hymmnos (This one isn't even referenced on the linked page!), Trigedasleng, Baronh, and D'Ni for insufficient notability (They didn't even have sections dedicated to them in articles), and I removed Newspeak for not being a constructed language.

Phyrexian?

[edit]

It is a fully constructed language from the world of New Phyrexia in the universe of the popular TCG "Magic: The Gathering". It is so robust they have printed numerous cards translated into it entirely. Alena 33 (talk) 22:19, 25 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

If you are asking whether Phyrexian should be added to this list, please note that the last sentence of the lead says "All entries on this list have further information on separate Wikipedia articles." Since there is no separate article for Phyrexian, it should not be added to this list at this time. CodeTalker (talk) 23:54, 25 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
