ISO DIS 24229, CODES FOR WRITTEN LANGUAGE CONVERSION SYSTEMS
Voted APPROVE with comments on ISO/DIS 24229, Codes for written language conversion systems
Question:
Do you approve of the technical content of ISO/DIS 24229?
Description:
The codes are devised for usage in any application requiring the expression of written language conversion systems, including transliteration and romanization systems, in coded format.
Comment:
The example given included “Varia systems” with “The Wade-Giles Chinese transcription system from A Chinese-English Dictionary” from 1912. This is fine, but maybe there could be another example for the “Pinyin” which has replaced Wade-Giles system by majority of the name authorities and subject headings in the world for years.
