About RTL
I am researching RTL scripts. I met this:


 * &#x41;
 * 0xa9 --
 * is_rtl:
 * is_rtl:


 * &#x062B;
 * 0x062B --
 * is_rtl:
 * is_rtl:


 * &#x05E9;
 * 0x05E9 --
 * is_rtl:
 * is_rtl:


 * &#x07D6;
 * 0x07D6 --
 * is_rtl:
 * is_rtl:

I'd expect the Arab, Hebr, Nkoo characters to be rtl=true. Am I misunderstanding something? -DePiep (talk) 20:58, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The invocation  checks whether the literal characters   are right-to-left. To check the right-to-leftness of the Hebrew character, put in the literal character or a HTML character reference:   or  .   as well as   and   interpret their arguments as strings rather than code points in hexadecimal because the corresponding functions in the module take strings. (They could take hexadecimal arguments if someone edited the module to add another parameter to tell them to interpret their argument this way.) — Eru·tuon 01:02, 10 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks, will work for me. Great module! (Second code example is ). -DePiep (talk) 17:28, 10 January 2021 (UTC)


 * The four characters, is_rtl:
 * using &amp;#x...;
 * using &amp;#x...;
 * using &amp;#x...;
 * using &amp;#x...;

is_pagename


In the function is_pagename, does "pagename" stand for "blockname"? Or wider? -DePiep (talk) 05:17, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Resolved: refers to "valid WP pagename", related to WP:NCTR invalid title characters like "#". -DePiep (talk) 11:34, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Missing documentation: Hangul, Aliases
I am developing the documentation, especially in. To completify, can someone point out how or where the data /aliases and /Hangul can be retrieved (implementation)? DePiep (talk) 11:39, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

is_RTL check?
About :


 * &rarr;

I expect true (is_rtl), right? -DePiep (talk) 23:00, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Solved: enter the character &lt;ش >, not the U+hex:
 * &rarr;

Edit request 20 November 2023
Description of suggested change: the module code says "-- No image data modules on Wikipedia yet."

We have them now. Can this be enabled? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 05:37, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Can you sandbox the code? &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:46, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
 * MSGJ, I don't speak Lua.. I edited Module:Unicode data/sandbox to sync with the current version and I uncommented the block. returns  (File:) so I think this works? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 21:19, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ I'm not sure I agree with your importing of so many modules from other wikis, but in any event there was never any good reason to comment out that code as opposed to just letting uses of it fail. * Pppery * it has begun... 21:36, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Description of suggested change: Creation of  as a separate function
