  2. Support at least those are the least controversial of the bunch. -- Liliana 00:12, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
  3. Support, though I don't think we need a VOTE for just fourteen redirects; I think an RFM would have been enough. —RuakhTALK 00:50, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
  4. Support Bequw τ 06:49, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
  5. Support not only for these specific pages, but as resolution for any page titles that have these digraphs. DAVilla 07:25, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
    I hope someone can use JavaScript to make (say) džoker redirect to džoker. --Daniel 08:11, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
    Given that there are only fourteen — yes, that would be pretty easy. Especially since we'd want that redirect to happen even if džoker didn't already have an entry. —RuakhTALK 11:34, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

  2. Abstain Equinox 21:41, 17 July 2011 (UTC) I just don't understand enough about it. I thought the difference between the two ijs was significant in Dutch, at least for sorting and processing purposes...? Perhaps nothing that affects dictionary words. Equinox 21:41, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
    I don't think anyone online ever uses the single-character form <ij>, so any difference is mostly theoretical. At ], for example, it doesn't appear once, whereas the two-character form <ij> occurs more than seven hundred times. (If we were distinguishing the two versions, then all but a few of those would use the one-character form.) Our entry and the Wikipedia article both state that dictionaries collate <ij> like the two letters I-J; some other works (we mention phone books, Wikipedia mentions encyclopedias) do differently — but I seem to recall that Britannica collates "Mc-" names under "Mac-", and we never use a digraph for that, so . . . —RuakhTALK 23:47, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
  3. Incidentally, I agree that RFM suffices for fourteen entries.​—msh210 (talk) 15:40, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
