Proposed Merger of Menksoft Mongolian IME with Menksoft IMEs
Latebird has proposed merging Menksoft Mongolian IME into Menksoft IMEs.


 * Support. The articles are confusing and overlapping, and at the very least need to by wikified into a single article. I would go further, and say that both articles should be proposed for deletion as self-promoting commercial spam, with only marginal relevance to Wikipedia users.

 * Oppose There're MenkCMS and Mongolian WPS 2002, too. --虞海 (Yú Hǎi) (talk) 05:46, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Menksoft Mongolian IME contains information on a very widespread and important program for writing Mongolian, and the infos appear to be accurate. (As for Menksoft Mongolian IME, I can confirm most of that.) The perspective on the infos might be less than ideal sometimes, but that doesn't undo their usefulness. Then, Mengsoft IMEs has already been redirected to Mengsoft, thus the merger proposal mentioned above is a bit confusing. It would be possible to put everything into the article on Mengsoft, of course, but then it should be taken care of that no infos are lost. G Purevdorj (talk) 07:39, 22 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Menksoft IMEs has already been merged into Menksoft - so I have merged Menksoft Mongolian IME into Menksoft. I tried to organise it a little better, so that there were not so many sections, and repeated language lists, but it really needs someone who knows this subject to tidy this up. It may make sense to those who already know the topic (and so therefore don't need the article), but for the general reader coming here to find out more about Menksoft and its products, I think they will end up rather confused.

 * I temporarily reverted your merge, but I don't think your merge is unreasonable, and I don't deny that the readabilities of these 2 articles don't reach the Wikipedia standard. However, I don't think such an edit improved the readability quite well. There're 3 issues with this merge: many contents in one article; incompact article structure; the most common IME/product not being prominent from other products. In my view, we should discuss and find a better, compositive way to change these 2 article. Thank you for your effort to improve these articles. --虞海 (Yú Hǎi) (talk) 07:55, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Please progress forward. See Reverting. Discussion is helpful, and that discussion should take place on the version as currently stands. If you have any particular problem with the version as it stands that you feel you cannot progress through regular editing, then please get in touch with me.

What is missing
This article is quite positive (one might say enthusiastic) about Menksoft. However, it fails to make two very important things clear:

1. Menksoft is not Unicode compliant. 2. Menksoft is not Mac compatible.

Despite its popularity, these are rather important issues that need to be spelt out properly in the article. Otherwise the article really runs the risk of degenerating into propaganda.

 * The editor who created this and similar articles is not active anymore, so you'd be very welcome to proceed and make some edits yourself. I've heard rumour that Mengsoft has incorporated Unicode in its most recent version (2012 or so), but I don't have any reliable information. G Purevdorj (talk) 13:29, 3 September 2013 (UTC)


 * This bunch of articles is very frustrating. They seem to be linked together in a maze with English that looks good enough until you try to follow it.
 * I'm in Inner Mongolia right now trying to install the Menksoft IME because I want to learn traditional Mongolian script and apparently everybody uses Menksoft and not Unicode. But I cannot figure out how to install the thing on an English edition of Windows. I don't read Chinese. &mdash; Hippietrail (talk) 13:53, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
