All that I could find with any official status at all were Devanagari (nationally for Hindi and some states for other languages), Gujarati, and Meitei. I basically checked every Indian state's official language legislation. I removed the infobox because it's about about 85% nonsense. I'd actually prefer to remove the article entirely, but an AFD got no consensus, so I settled for removing all of the downright nonsense.

| I noticed you've been doing some great work recently cleaning up some fluff and nonsense having to do with various topics, most of them South Asian—great job by the way—but I think some of the content you removed from ] can conceivably be merged into an article titled ] or even ] (or similar). A page titled ] exists but only as a redirect to ]; this is not correct, as many scripts used presently (e.g. Nastaliq, Latin) and historically (]) do not belong to the Brahmic family of languages. Overall I think you're correct that the article ] is poorly conceived, but in investigating the coverage of it and related topics during the AfD discussion, I realized there is surprisingly not really any article that talks about writing in South Asia as a whole, independent from a script/language (family) (e.g. ], ]) or a historical or modern-day culture or polity (e.g. ] itself). Thus, as I imagine it, the article would serve to house not just a list of languages ordered by script family, but also a section on the history of writing in South Asia—surprisingly, as best as I can tell, there's no Misplaced Pages article that really covers this as distinct from other topics (please correct me if I'm wrong)— or other topics that take a broad view of writing on the subcontinent (e.g. sociocultural or religious dimensions). | |||
| There is ample precedent for such an article, e.g. ], ], ]. | |||
| Similarly, the template {{tl|Officially used writing systems in India}} could be reworked in a similar way into {{tl|South Asian scripts}} or something (although IMO the case for the template isn't as strong as for the article, since {{tl|Infobox Writing system}} arguably serves; to be discussed). | |||

Mizo language
Hi, could you have a look at Mizo language article? Apparently needs some cleanup, also the article is subject to POV push by some users. Thanks. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 14:15, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
- Oh, sure... it doesn't look as messy as some of the ones I've been looking at, but I'm sure it can be tightened and polished a bit. Now, where did I put my hip waders...? PepperBeast (talk) 14:32, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
