Moved from Category talk:Dotless lower case "i": -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 18:04, 2 March 2021 (UTC)The Latin Alphabet-based Turkish alphabet has the letter I (capital) and ı (small); I understand the latter one corresponds to the so-called "dotless lower case i". However, the graphic (or whatever it is called) that accompanies this cat shows İ and ı and not I and ı (for what it calls Turkic). Therefore it does not help to teach anything, as the information therein is only confusing (to say "wrong" nicely). Per COM:EDUSE. --E4024 (talk) 17:38, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Well spotted; I’ll work on correcting it. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 18:01, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Info: This table calls "İ" and "ı" Turkic because this practice (or having two separate letters "I/ı" and "İ/i") was initially created for Turkish language in 1918 and thence spread to a more or less unified practice in Linguistics study of present and past Turkic languages (regardless of their actual orthographies) throughout the 20th century, and to the replacement of cyrillic alphabets for Azerbaijani and Turkmen (which are Turkic languages) more recently. It is not a graphic, by the way, it is a table filled with text elements. -- Tuválkin ✉
