Convention on urwiki is to use Latin numerals, which is not possible with their favoured (phonetic) IME.
https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime/blob/HEAD/rules/ur/ur-phonetic.js is the definition with [ '1', '۱' ] rather than [ '1', '1' ].
(Reported in person by @hindustanilanguage.)
We have the issue again coming up at Wiki Conference India, 2016. Will sending in a patch, replacing all patterns in https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime/blob/HEAD/rules/ur/ur-phonetic.js#L13 to look like:
[ '1', '1' ], [ '2', '2' ], .... etc
would just work ? I can maybe send in - if I get some pointers here!
This should work. Please submit pull request to upstream at, https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime
Still we are getting same set of numbers (۱۲۳) and **not (123)** -- which we would like to see as output.
A little more patience, @hindustanilanguage. It's being resolved, but isn't deployed on the wiki just yet.
The change is now merged upstream. https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime/pull/451 should be fixed after they update the production server to master.
Change 304990 had a related patch set uploaded (by Nikerabbit):
Update jquery.ime to 10ae4c0
Change 305007 had a related patch set uploaded (by KartikMistry):
Update jquery.ime to 10ae4c0
This is now rolling out to early production sites today, and will be on Wikipedias as of Thursday. Thanks all!
