Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs is a Unicode block containing meteorological and astronomical symbols, emoji characters [3] largely for compatibility with Japanese telephone carriers' implementations of Shift JIS, and characters originally from the Wingdings and Webdings fonts found in Microsoft Windows.

Contents

Emoji

The block contains 637 emoji [4] [5] and has 312 standardized variants defined to specify emoji-style (U+FE0F VS16) or text presentation (U+FE0E VS15) for 156 base characters. [6]

Emoji modifiers

The Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs contains a set of "Emoji modifiers" which are modifier characters intended to represent skin colour based on the Fitzpatrick scale (but conflating the two lightest skin types into one category): [5] [7]

U+1F3FB🏻EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-1-2
U+1F3FC🏼EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-3
U+1F3FD🏽EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-4
U+1F3FE🏾EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-5
U+1F3FF🏿EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-6

These emoji modifiers can be used on emojis that represent people or body parts including the 55 human emojis in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictograph block. [5]

In August 2014, Peter Edberg of Apple Inc. and Mark Davis of Google proposed implementing these "emoji modifiers" to provide better representation of "human diversity" in emoji characters. [8] [9] and, in June 2015, the proposal was adopted in Unicode version 8.0. [10] This was the result of lobbying by Katrina Parrott, whose daughter came up with the idea after being unable to send emojis that looked like her. [11]

To modify an emoji representing a human or body part, the emoji modifier must be placed immediately after that emoji. [12] When the emoji modifier is applied to an emoji, the emoji-style variant selectior (U+FE0F) should be omitted because the emoji modifier automatically implies emoji-style presentation. [12]

Table of emoji with modifiers

The following table shows the full combinations of each of the five modifiers with all the "human emoji" characters in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs block. Each character should show in each of the five skin tones provided a suitable font is installed on the system and the rendering software is capable of handling modifier characters. Platforms without emoji modifier support may show as boxes.

This proposal attempts to address several issues related to emoji-like characters in Unicode: • Concerns about the lack of diversity in the representation of the people and body part emoji. • Concerns about apparent bias in the selection of encoded characters, and/or notable gaps in the current set. • Popular requests for emoji additions.
  9. ↑ Peter Edberg; Mark Davis (27 August 2014). "L2/14-173r Variation selectors for Emoji skin tone" (PDF). Unicode.org. p. 1. We propose 5 characters [...] The tones are based on the Fitzpatrick scale [...] The default representation of these alone is as a color swatch. However, if one of these characters follows a character for one or more persons (WOMAN, KISS) or a character for a hand position or a body part (VICTORY HAND, NOSE), then the desired representation is to show the sequence as a single glyph corresponding to the image for the person(s) or body part with the specified skin tone [...]
