Sign print bilingualism

How would the community feel if a section was added in the Bimodal bilingualism page about sign print bilingualism? While bimodal bilingualism is applied primarily to spoken language, literacy is an additional aspect of the bilingual condition that is poorly accounted for in Wikipedia and is a growing topic of research amongst signed language linguists (such as Chamberlain and Mayberry). If consensus is that bimodal bilingualism is not the appropriate forum for sign print bilingualism, what does the community feel is? Vanberg (talk) 20:27, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I only just saw that this was here. I also see that you've added the section to the article - very nice work! If you are interested in contributing more in these areas, could I persuade you to take a look at the Applied Linguistics Task Force, or at WikiProject Deaf? We could definitely do with more knowledgeable contributors. All the best — Mr. Stradivarius 11:36, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why is "Deaf" consistently capitalized as if it were a proper noun? Is this political? It certainly isn't standard.69.244.155.82 (talk) 00:40, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
