Arabic/ArabicWriting
Reference material by Wikibooks contributors. This retains its source identity and is not 411 news reporting.
Purpose of this page: explains how the Arabic words will be displayed.
Proposals:
Use Arabetics fonts in some of sections of the book.
Include Arabic type with fathäh, kasräh, etc. So that the Arabic text is adequate enough to figure out the pronunciation. This probably requires the next proposal to be implemented.
Show Arabic type as a picture so it is viewable on all computers. This is necessary to show the vowelizing symbols (a.k.a. "tashkiil") (fathäh, kasräh, etc.) properly.
Make transliteration optional to view.
Allow the user to choose to see vowelized or unvowelized texts, when viewing a page.
These are to be discussed on the talk page.
Anything agreed upon goes below for future authors.
