- The text presents a comprehensive list of emoji proposals that were formally submitted to the Unicode Consortium but ultimately rejected.
- It details criteria for inclusion: only formal proposals for emoji usage are considered, excluding informal requests or overview documents.
- The list categorizes rejected emoji into sections such as Faces, Hand Signs, Food, Animals and Plants, People, Body Parts, Activities, Religious and Cultural Symbols, Transport, Nature and Places, Other Objects, Other Symbols, Flags, Modifiers, and Unsorted.
- Each entry includes details like sample image, name, author, date, document reference, and decision status, with notes on withdrawn proposals or private decisions.
- Additional sections cover emoji accepted as symbols (added to Unicode but without emoji status) and mention unpublished proposals not forwarded to the Unicode Technical Committee.
- Notes provide context, such as recommended alternatives for some rejected emoji and clarifications on character names or replacements.
