Character Encodings/To do

''Feel free to add your suggestions to this list of improvements. If you complete one of the tasks, please place strike through the comment using tags.''

This book is at infant, nay perhaps newborn stage, so todo's are at broad level. Further To Dos may be added when the author guidelines are completed.

I would suggest anyone continuing with this project consider using levering wikidata with some sort of custom module.

While these "Don't do's" are the author's preference if he is able to continue with the project the author may be feeling he is unable to to continue with the process. Because of that these "Don't do's" can be reasonably disrespected for anyone which to try to continue with the project etc.
