Known Issues

{Moved from Extension documentation page)

  1. Fix that bug which produced a PHP error given numbers: WikiHiero should gracefully echo the input if it can't be translated, as it does for unrecognised Phonemes
    I will fix it. Aineko
  2. Talking of which, it remains to be seen whether the reason for some Phonemes not being translated is that they are incorrect (they're copied direct from the Manuel de Codage at http://www.catchpenny.org/codage/ which seems to contain other errors, so it's not impossible) or that WikiHiero should recognise them but doesn't.
    I will take a look it. Aineko
  3. Should the alt text for Phoneme-derived Glyphs not be the Phoneme itself? At the moment it seems to be the Class Letter for the Glyph from Gardiner's List (so all A-class Glyphs are being labelled "A") which seems to be minimally helpful. Given that several Phonemes might map to the same Glyph, it would be better to use the more specific label.

  1. Version on test.wp is bugged ;o) Last version show both phoneme and Gardiner's code when both available. Aineko
  2. Images do not have transparent backgrounds, this results in 'ugly' results when the background colour is not white, for example w:Tutankhamun#Name. --79.72.60.196 20:35, 23 December 2008 (UTC) (w:User:Flutefluteflute)
  3. The cartouche has an error:

With the Mayan hieroglyphs script and Aztec Pictographs being proposed to Unicode (00014000-00015FFF Other large scripts) could WikiHiero be duplicated into WikiHieroMaya and/or also WikiHeiroAztec ?

  • IMHO The Mayan font proposal is farther along but has missed the Unicode 6.1(draft);
