dancarkner,

Any #Wikipedia or language policy people from #Indonesia care to take a look at how the spelling systems/reform are covered on English Wikipedia?

Since a year ago the English article has been moved so many times, from Indonesian Spelling System to Enhanced Spelling System, Perfected Spelling (Indonesian), Revised Spelling (Indonesian), to its current Enhanced Spelling of the Indonesian Language.

#BahasaIndonesia #LanguageReform #EjaanYangDisempurnakan

dancarkner,

It's not up to me of course, and I'm hesitant to do what was suggested to me when I asked about it (to launch a Requested Move process that would most likely be examined and decided by all Westerners). But clearly it being edit warred over is not good either.

There is actually a second article which is in a sense on the same topic:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Rumi_Spelling
(It gets confusing because the 1972 orthographic reform is named differently in Indonesia and #Malaysia )

#Wikipedia #Indonesia

dancarkner,

Because the constant article moves revolve around people's preferred translation of "Disempurnakan" (perfected, improved, revised, enhanced) I almost think it'd be better to just have the article titled "Indonesian orthography" which is very common eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Indo-European_Latin-script_orthographies

And then have a clearly titled article about the joint 1972 language reforms which has the same name #EYD in #Indonesian but is actually a separate historical topic at this point
#Malaysia #Wikipedia

dancarkner,

The #Indonesian #Wikipedia has separate articles for each form of #orthography, which makes sense
