[[ - "encoded as Unicode" gives me the impression that Unicode can be considered an encoding. Whereas for the most part the article emphasizes that - quote: "Unicode is a universal character set". Would it not be better to say "encoded _in_a_Unicode_encoding_"? (In line with the heading "Consider using a Unicode encoding".) 2) W.r.t. the heading "Consider using a Unicode encoding": - would it not be ideal if the text under that heading listed or linked to the [relevant] Unicode encodings? Currently the Unicode encodings are listed under the heading "One character set, multiple encodings", which says: "The encoding forms that can be used with Unicode are called UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32." -- leif halvard silli
