--- Comment #13 from Huji <[email protected]> 2011-09-18 22:03:23 UTC --- Having the [Arabic] block listed before the Persian-specific letters is the reason letters will not be sorted correctly according to Persian alphabet. For latin languages, this has been solved by introducing more than one collation in the latin1 family (i.e. latin1_german_ci, latin1_swedish_ci, ...). Using utf8_general_ci is also not an option: it works for Arabic, but not for Persian (for the above mentioned reason). The Persian community is also underrepresented in many of the online collaborations so I think it is very unlikely that MySQL or other responsibly authorities introduce a new collation (something along the lines of utf8_persian_ci) just for that purpose. In the light of above explanation, what is a pragmatic solution to this problem? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
