It seems wrong, to me, that two different letters are transcribed equally in janga system.

қ  ق       Q q     Kh kh
Х х     ح       X x     Kh kh

I suppose the first one is wrong, as Kh as a transliteration of X is the usual.

Kazakh uses Cyrillic Small Letter Byelorussian-Ukrainian I (U+0456), but and why the uppercase corresponds to Turkish Latin letter I with dot above (U+0130) ? (kk:Қазақ кирилл әліпбиі uses Cyrillic Capital Letter Byelorussian-Ukrainian I (U+0406).) Can anyone confirm it?

You are right. Fixed. Also is removed unofficial proprietary scripts.--AlefZet 16:30, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please translate

There is lots of interesting history of the Kazakh alphabet and its bizarre journey through the arabic, latin, and cyrillic scripts. I'm no expert in this, but the Russian article (featured!) seems to have lots of this info (I don't read Russian well). Can somebody do at least a rough translation?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sotsijaldy qazaqstan.jpg

Image:Sotsijaldy qazaqstan.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
