FreeSerif looks good and we can use it instead of Faruma if the license is okay.

What font do we use then??? I can name many fonts which are good but don't know
whether they have proper licensing.

I've grabbed your files. I'll try

It looks like FreeSerif from https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/freefont

Hello. The fonts at Dhivehi Wikipedia and Wiktionary are not webfonts. If
possible could the fonts be changed to Faruma which can be downloaded from
here:

GerardM
These fonts seem to be packaged in a .deb-pack.

Nevermind, I didn't read the initial post of this thread (which had been
cut out). It sounds like you're looking for a font that can be
distributed with Mediawiki as a webfont, in which case it does need to
be free license.
