Talk:Ajax Poll:Do you prefer Arabic Stars or Asterisks?/@comment-24258073-20190529102447

I admit that Asterisks (*) are more useful because they are commonly used as bullet points on wikifarm sites. Arabic Stars (٭) cannot be used as bullet points unless you create a template that automatically produces a * and name it Template:٭

Also Arabic Stars can be quite problematic when trying to publish text when the character coming directly after an Arabic Star is a number, which causes the number to automatically be published before the Arabic Star.

In spite of this, I prefer Arabic Stars because they are less common, and are not found on the keyboard. Therefore I find them to be a more interesting symbol than Asterisks are.
