Arguments in favor

• I support it :) and wait for speakers.--Tamara Ustinova 10:07, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
• I think it will be intresting, mainly for people that live in Croatia.--U.Steele 18:27, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

Arguments against

• Oppose Oppose Changing my vote. The project is only written in English, not Istriot. And there are no articles. Kanzler31 03:45, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
  • • Your vote make me laugh... Just see it.--Tamara Ustinova 10:07, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
• The test-wiki sems to contain some articles, but they are mostly written in Friulian, not in Istriot. E.g. this seems to have been created by copy-pasting fur:Friûl-Vignesie_Julie. I think there is no need for a fork of Friulian wikipedia under a wrong name. Furthermore, the articles seem to have been copied by user:Reder without mentioning his source, so they are copyright violations and should therefore be deleted. -- 141.20.6.94 22:31, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
