I'm working with Distributed Proofreaders to produce some minimal

only appeared after that date? Can I assume that both the Pan-Turkic
Latin orthography and the Pan-Nigerian alphabet postdate that?
You are probably safe with the Pan-Turkic Latin alphabet. It seems that
this was adopted followng the First Turkology Congress, held in Baku in
1926, see
