There was a heading called "In American Sign Language" where it was also the first instance of American Sign Language in the article and so someone made the American Sign Language part of the heading into a link. I find headings that are also links a bit confusing or at least visually unsettlling so I moved the link to the first line of text in the sentence under the heading. I think that is less confusing than having headings double as links where it can be avoided. Qaz
...has the alphabet completely out of order. For people who use ASL, this won't be a problem, but for native English speakers, the image might mislead them into thinking that "J" was in fact "D" by reading the image left to right and top to bottom.
Anyone know where we can find an images that uses English alphabetical order? Jfulbright 15:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

I changed the caption of this photo titling the American Manual Alphabet as "The American 'fingerspelled' Alphabet" because the manual alphabet is not only used for fingerspelling, but also for initilizing and for handshapes in Americian Sign Language. Furthermore, this is the proper linguistic term for this alphabet. Thank you. 165.138.95.59 ( talk) 14:34, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello!!
I made a quick edit in regards to the section of fingerspelling in sign language. I removed the clause "suggesting that the use of fingerspelling has diminished over time" because there was no source at the end, and we cannot jump to that conclusion unless data is given that says as such. Thank you!!
