Very confusing
editThis topic of the article is curious, but the current revision is very confusing, and possibly misleading.
- What does it mean that the script is "doubtful"?
- How are "Chữ khoa đẩu" and the "Tadpole script" related? The sentence about it is very obscure.
- What is the article actually trying to say about the usage for the Muong language? That the same script was possibly used for both Vietnamese and Muong? Or that these were different scripts? Or something else entirely? It would also be a nice thing to clarify.
Perhaps the answers to my questions are hiding in the cited sources, but unfortunately they are written in Vietnamese, so I cannot read them. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 22:56, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
The article Chữ khoa đẩu has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
pseudo-scientific original research by Đỗ Văn Xuyền, what he calls ancient Viet script is actually Tai Dam script, this is known as a hoax. The hoax is actually explained in the 4th source.

- @Sgnpkd: I don't really have time to deal with this now, as the sun is shining and Vietnam/China issues about Vietnam's early history are fraught with nationalism. But if something is a hoax does not mean it is not notable. If it is a nationalistic myth then the issue here is notability. Are there enough sources discussing this hoax for it to pass WP:GNG?

Maybe a bio of the scholar a better option?

- curprev 13:20, 30 April 2020 Graeme Bartlett talk contribs 4,255 bytes −282 prod challenged by Greenknight dv at WP:REFUND stating:"Chữ khoa đẩu" version by Xuyền is certainly a hoax, but this hoax is still circulating among many Vietnamese fundamentalist nationalists. This is exactly why there should be an article about it, including the arguments refuting it, in the first place. Beside that, there are some other speculations, though still debatable, about what chữ khoa đẩu mentioned in ancient documents really was. We just do not delete an article about a hoax jus undothank
- If the article should exist, as similar to Jindai moji then it should be renamed as "khoa đẩu" is the Vietnamese name of the Tadpole script, the script mentioned in "ancient document". I still think this does not deserve an article because of its poor content, nothing can be expanded anymore except stating it's a hoax. Furthermore, the hoax has not gained enough attention even in Vietnam, and since a long time, nothing is heard about this or from Mr Xuyền anymore. Any speculation, or hoax about pre-Sinitic script of the Vietnamese language should be merged into the Vietnamese language entry. Sgnpkd (talk) 17:33, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
