Brackets? edit

The use of brackets in the examples is confusing and seems inconsistent. In the first example, the brackets don't seem to make a difference. In the second, the bracketed (or) seems to be excluded from the deciphered message. Am I missing something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.150.115.215 (talk) 21:58, 19 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Square brackets (like in example 1) are commonly used to mark modifications of the original quote. In example 2, regular brackets were used, in this case to mark "ignore this while deciphering". Sobsz (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 13:23, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Examples? edit

Since Null ciphers are often poking fun at, criticizing, and/or using bad language against famous (and often political) figures, which is against Wikipedia's policies, I have had trouble finding good examples of double Null ciphers and Acrostics. If you come across any (or any other type of Null cipher), please let me know. 73.143.98.242 (talk) 15:14, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
