• What script(s) is/are used for the language and how is the language written ? GerardM 20:25, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Of the two Iranian languages of the Caucasus, Tati came here from the south. It had no written documents until the 20s of the 20th century when a Latin-based script was created for it (changed for Cyrillic in 1938). Today there is a thriving literature in Russia and Azerbaijan written in Tati.[7]Zandweb 09:16, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Does this mean that Cyrillic will be the script for this Wiki ? GerardM 12:44, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
