Talk:Bengali (Unicode block)

Unicode Block name
A proposal was made this week to change the block header for Bengali in the code charts to "Bengali-Assamese" (WG2 N4999). This is at a very preliminary stage, and needs to undergo several rounds of ISO balloting by ISO member bodies before it is accepted for ISO/IEC 10646, and although members of the Unicode Technical Committee were party to the agreement, the proposal to change the block header has not yet even been discussed by the Unicode Technical Committee, so at the earliest the block header change will not be implemented until Unicode 12.0 next year. It is therefore way too premature for Wikipedia to change the contents of this article to use "Bengali-Assamese" as Axomiya deka did. I have therefore reverted their changes and their move of the article to Bengali-Assamese (Unicode block). Also, it should be noted that the official block name identifier "Bengali" is immutable, and cannot be changed; only the presentation name on the code charts is proposed to be changed.
