See the second request.

Discussion verification final decision This proposal has been closed as part of a reform of the request process. This request has not necessarily been rejected, and new requests are welcome. This decision was taken by the language committee in accordance with the Language proposal policy. The closing committee member provided the following comment: This discussion was created before the implementation of the Language proposal policy, and it is incompatible with the policy. Please open a new proposal in the format this page has been converted to (see the instructions). Do not copy discussion wholesale, although you are free to link to it or summarise it (feel free to copy your own comments over). —{admin} Pathoschild 02:18, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oppose

1. OpposeWhile I support a Gagauz Wikipedia, I think we must wait until there are native speakers to support it. --Node ue 18:45, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

   And this is just the question I tried to ask in tatar language below, "where are the authors?" --Yaroslav Zolotaryov 00:45, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

   OpposeGagauz Wikipedia? You must be kidding. --Fratele lui Bonaparte, il cunosti? 19:24, 25 August 2006 (UTC) indefinitely blocked user —Pill δ 16:44, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

2. Oppose I agree with Node ue here. With only 150.000 speakers, it is very important that have strong support from a few native speakers. Jeroenvrp 16:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
3. A) No users that are willing to work --> b) No native speakers -- Raghav 15:09, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comments

Sample text (Universal Declaration of Human Rights; Article 1) latin: Insannar hepsi duuêrlar serbest hem birtakım kendi kıymetindä hem haklarında. Onnara verilmiş akıl hem üz da läazım biri-birinä davransınnar kardaşlık ruhuna uygun. /cyrillic: Инсаннар хепси дууэрлар сербест хем биртакым кенди кыйметиндӓ хем хакларында. Оннара верилмиш акыл хем ӱз да лӓазым бири-биринӓ даврансыннар кардашлык рухуна уйгун.

Язучылар бармы? Кем алар? --Yaroslav Zolotaryov 01:48, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

The language code is gag and not tut. I have created a portal for the Gagauz language. NB Gagauz is the third language in Moldova; Bulgarian is the third according to Ethnologue. GerardM 15:00, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
