In the translations section of the English Wiktionary page about "flag", the Arabic word for flag, "راية | "raiẗ", is misspelled as "رایة", using instead of the regular Arabic "ي|i" the similar Farsi-only letter "ی|ẏ" — which looks either like an Arabic "i" or like an Arabic "alef maksura" ("ى|y"). It looks the same, but it is wrong. (I’m warning, in case you wonder, as I did.)
