Former good article nomineeMorse code was a Language and literature good articles nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

The "Development and history" section mentions:

  • code adopted by the Deutsch-Österreichischer Telegraphenverein in 1851
  • Steinheil's code
  • original code by Morse in 1838

Shouldn't they also be presented in the table?

The Steinheil code is completely independent of Morse as far as I know. It is not part of the history of Morse code so does not really belong in that chart. Steinheil's code is included in the chart in the Telegraph code article comparing dot-dash codes which is a more appropriate place to discuss it. It's possible that Morse was influenced by Steinheil's work, but we would need a source for that before it could go in the article. Morse himself would never have admitted to such a thing (or that any of his ideas came from anyone else).
The difference between the Austrian Telegraph Union code and the International Code is only the addition of accented characters according to your chart. Not really a significant enough change to include in the article chart imo. However, it would be interesting to know why German umlauts were dropped and French accents added (according to your chart) at the same time. That could possibly reflect political rivalries at the time. SpinningSpark 11:34, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
