I just want to expand upon the (mostly) revert that I performed earlier before someone reverts the revert. I noticed that all of the external links were deleted along with other informative text on the article.
The Quikscript community is rather small and those links (especially the "Quikscript Outpost" and the groups.io one) are really important for those who want to easily seek out and expand their knowledge of the Quikscript alphabet. I have no idea when Wikipedia decided that all .xyz websites were considered bad but I've visited FriedOrange's site before and it was legit back when I visited it. I've cut that website out of the revert simply because I wasn't allowed to put it back in. However, I tried finding the version of this article that was most informative and gives first-time viewers a comprehensive synopsis of the alphabet.

I must ask why this article is entitled "Quickscript" when the alphabet's name is clearly displayed in the original pamphlet to be spelt "Quikscript"? Perhaps this article should be re-spelt correctly, with a redirect from "Quickscript"? -- 84.12.152.78 14:06, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
I've cleaned this up. I'll need to change the title with a redirect as well but.

Name change, cleanup done, double redirects checked for!

There is 1-2 official publications (ie. books) of this. The official manual, I think, is about 28 pgs, which was Kingsley's own manual for it. It has been referred to here as an external link, but anyone think it would be worth copying the whole lot to Wikibooks?? (A word of warning though: the PDF document has all the text as graphics-- ie.. you cannot actually search for words, so if it's going to be moved, you'll need either very good OCR, or lots of time!!) If it's been published 40 years ago, now free online, hardly anyone's going to object to copywright, or anything I think. martianlostinspace 10:35, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
If you dispute this, go ahead, but I can't see anything wrong with it. martianlostinspace 14:56, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Quikscriptmanual.pdf is unavailable due to 404. Please check other links as well.-- 89.218.21.13 ( talk) 06:29, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
