All Wikipedias, including the English language Wikipedia, use Unicode as it is Wikimedia Foundation policy. See discussion on Unicode usage in Wikipedia. The Unicode Standard is the most well-known encoding scheme to support the largest number of scripts/languages in a single page of code. Carefully designed by experts of the field around the world, this international standard is supported by virtually all the latest platforms-not only in major operating systems like Windows, Mac, and Linux but also in OSes of mobile phones and many electronic devices. Almost every script in the world, including Burmese, is defined in the Unicode Standard. Unicode is a standard that defines how text should be saved into data and how it is read and written.
