The Internationalisation WG wants to publish an article How to make list
markers stand upright in vertical text.
<https://w3c.github.io/i18n-drafts/questions/qa-upright-counters-in-vertical.html>
It is currently out for wide review. We are looking for *comments by
Friday 29 April*.
In Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Mongolian vertically-set text it is
normal for list counters to sit upright above the start of the list.
Until recently this was problematic, because browsers would only show
the numbers lying on their side. This article describes how to make them
stand upright, and the currently remaining issues to make this look perfect.
