TASK DESCRIPTION In Wikidata, the following scripts are currently supported to represent Sumerian cuneiform: sux-latn as one representation of Sumerian in the Latin script sux-xsux as the representation of Sumerian in Unicode cuneiform However, for the representation sux-latn, there are different conventions that Assyriologists use, and we could break them down into about three variants. For example: "dešum" (abundant) may be written as "deszum" or "deshum" and some variants use diacritics or subscript numbers to differentiate between different cuneiform sign variants As I understand: I could add these variants as mis-x-[QID of my variant], but is there any chance of defining "subvariants" of scripts, e.g. sux-latn-dia for diacritics, as long as the different representations in the latin alphabet are sufficiently defined, accepted and used by a specific community?
