:Who knows? It is all original research. As this article is explicitly about characters that are defined as Latin script in the Unicode Standard, and the list of letters by shape comprises Unicode characters with various Unicode script values, the tables are not appropriate for inclusion in this article, so I have moved them to [[List of Latin letters by shape]].

:: <s>{{ping|BabelStone}} Maybe it should be integrated into [[List of Latin letters]] as a separate section? [[User:1234qwer1234qwer4|1234qwer1234qwer4]] ([[User talk:1234qwer1234qwer4|talk]]) 21:09, 16 March 2020 (UTC)</s>

:: Actually, the table listed explicitly Latin letters in Unicode by shape; as you can see from the number of letters in the mentioned [[List of Latin letters]], it would be very different if it was listing “all” Latin letters. On the other hand, I'm not quite sure if such a list is needed. We already have a list of Latin letters by shap,e regardless if they are in Unicode or not, and a list of Unicode letters by codepoint. What do you think? [[User:1234qwer1234qwer4|1234qwer1234qwer4]] ([[User talk:1234qwer1234qwer4|talk]]) 21:14, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

:::In my opinion the list of letters by shape is not really suitable for Wikipedia, and I would have deleted them if not added by a very experienced editor. [[User:BabelStone|BabelStone]] ([[User talk:BabelStone|talk]]) 21:58, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

== Please put [[G with tilde]] character URGENTLY in Unicode! ==

Please put [[G with tilde]] character URGENTLY in Unicode! It is of great importance for obvious reasons! --[[User:Jaques O. Carvalho|Jaques O. Carvalho]] [[User talk:Jaques O. Carvalho|&#9756;]] 14:08, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

:You can [http://www.unicode.org/pending/proposals.html?utm_source=webtekno submit a character proposal] to Unicode but it's unlikely to be accepted because [[G with tilde]] is already supported, just not as a [[precomposed character]]. The Unicode page on proposals notes {{quote|The Unicode Consortium is interested in obtaining information on known glyphs, minor variants, precomposed characters (including ligatures, conjunct consonants, and accented characters) and other such "non-characters," mainly for cataloging and research purposes; however, they are generally not acceptable for character proposals.}} Search for "precomposed" at Unicode's "[https://www.unicode.org/alloc/nonapprovals.html Archive of Notices of Non-Approval] for various declined proposals "rejected by the UTC as a precomposed letter already represented by the sequence ...". I have no doubt a request for a precomposed G WITH TILDE will meet the same fate. [[User:Drmccreedy|DRMcCreedy]] ([[User talk:Drmccreedy|talk]]) 15:10, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
