Article evaluations
[edit]Letter (alphabet) is missing citations and sources for various sections of the article. The "History" section skipped over large chunks of time. There is some irrelevant information in the "A classical definition" section. There is also no section on letter-words. There is no definition of abjads in the article. Most of the information that is there is good, but is lacking citations.
I plan to try and cite the unsourced information and update the "History" section. I will also remove the irrelevant information and to define abjads.
