Article about a unicode character. Taking away the "supposed" backwards text effect (which I know of, but it isn't, and is unlikely to be, cited), there's nothing that distinguishes it from any other unicode character Will ^(talk) 13:53, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete unless reliable sources are found. Can't really imagine, say, the New York Times covering this. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Comment It would be a shame if a reliable source can't be found, then, as because of this AfD, I learned something both interesting and useful, and that precisely is the purpose of an encyclopedia. —Quasirandom (talk) 14:36, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• I'm perfectly aware of WP:USEFUL -- that's why I didn't !vote to keep on that basis, but only commented. —Quasirandom (talk) 02:21, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete Should the article be kept, and it probably shouldn't, it needs to be moved to a different title. This is a combining character, and is never meant to stand on its own. --Ptcamn (talk) 14:49, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep This symbol is of genuine notability as it is part of the unicode set and has unique - if strange - functionality. That the article doesn't have good referencing is not a reason to delete it but rather to improve it. I have had occasion to wonder what on earth that symbol is and WP is the best location to find the answer. Witty Lama 15:13, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Again, please read WP:USEFUL. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 15:20, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Besides, the article pretty well explains that it *doesn't* have that "unique strange functionaliy" you think it does. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:34, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• If cool were a category for inclusion, this would fly. Alas it isn't, so Delete TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 17:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete: It's a character, and not even a letter. It has no effect on the world. Utgard Loki (talk) 17:53, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect to List of Unicode characters no evidence that the subject is notable through significant coverage by reliable, independent sources. Guest9999 (talk) 18:37, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep, it's not just a unicode character; people seem to be missing the point that it's part of the Cyrillic alphabet. --Dhartung | Talk 21:10, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep, if reliable sources are not found, then it should be redirected to the Cryllic numerals page (or is it a character of the Cryllic alphabet?).--Porsche997SBS (talk) 22:45, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Comment does this character have an actual "name" I can't even get to this article in firefox and regardless of the outcome of this AfD it would probably be a good idea to make a redirect to this article with an english (or other latin alphabet-based) name.--Torchwood Who?

• Keep, you should keep this, because I registered here so you don't delete it. Long live ‫‬‭‮‪‫‬‭҉! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Episdn (talk • contribs) 23:38, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
