I greatly appreciate that the Uyghur language has been added to Discourse. The Uyghur language uses Arabic letters and is written from right to left, similar to Arabic and Hebrew. I found a bug in the HTML: the text direction should be set to right to left. Could you fix this bug?
Thanks.

I’m assuming the language code is `ug`
