◆ Requester:
  — Add as many lines as necessary in the preceding table. Be careful not to mix faces with different characteristics on the same line (for example if a font bundle includes a serif font with a regular and bold face, and a sans-serif font with regular, bold, italic and bold-italic faces, use two different lines).
  — Use ✘s to indicate a common feature is present.

◆ Packager: take care of those items and remove them from the page once they've been dealt with.

◆ Requester: replace existing categories with « Category:Font wishlist »
◆ Packager: replace the « Category:Font wishlist » by
  — « Category:In-progress fonts » for a font being worked on, but not available in Fedora yet. Typically in packaging review stage.
  — « Category:Packaged fonts » for a packaged font, available in Fedora.
  — « Category:Rejected and retired fonts » for a font we decided not to package after review, or removed from current Fedora repositories for some other reason.
◆ Requester and packager: you may additionally tag your page with one of the following categories:
  — « Category:Decorative fonts » for a font used in titles and other short runs of text, typically requested by the Artwork team
  — « Category:International fonts » for a font with unusual unicode coverage, typically requested by the I18N or L10N teams
  — « Category:Technical fonts » for a font with coverage of technical unicode blocks (math, engineering, music and other non-text blocks).
