Stopgap for the lack of rotation

Great fan of this! I've been using it with great enthusiasm on wiktionary.

I'm very much looking forward to the implementation of rotation, however, because right now it is impossible to depict the determinative

Y1

rotated 90degrees anticlockwise, which is probably its most common orientation.

As Y1 is among the most common determinatives (It's used to indicate abstract concepts), this is a bit of an issue. I was wondering whether it might be possible to insert a pre-rotated version of Y1 into the code (as Y99, say), at least until rotation is up and running?
Once again, my esteem for this system is enormously high - Egyptian would be impossible on wiktionary without it.

Y1 rotated by 90 degrees is available as Y1V.

Ah, I gave up on that. It's "Y1a" in Gardiner, so could support for that code be added? Kwamikagami (talk) 20:43, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

I added a note about this to Help:WikiHiero syntax on WP-en.
