I think that a language spoken by more than 400 000 persons, which has its own literature, which is spoken by intellectuals, which is recognized by people all over its country (France), should have its Wikipedia.
[edit] Arguments in favour

- Oppose a Wikipedia needs nothing more than users. This one has none listed.--Prosfilaes 01:41, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Please, clarify request. --Millosh 05:58, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- Read this mail I have received from ISO 639-3 registration community :
"In short, the Registration Authority recognizes that Guadeloupean Creole French and Martiniquean Creole French should be considered separate, and that the variety of Martinique should be more closely aligned with [acf] (known in the standard as St Lucia Creole French, but called by other names in neighboring island nations). This is not reflected in the current Ethnologue 16th edition record. The change request comment explicitly recommends that the Ethnologue should make this correction. To be very explicit in designating all these language varieties, we recommend using both the ISO 639-3 language identifier and the appropriate Country identifier from ISO 3166, according to the scheme recommended in RFC 5646 (documentation may be found at http://www.rfc-archive.org/getrfc.php?rfc=5646 see especially page 13) Specifically, and with no further request or application to any standards body, the following language tags may be used: Guadeloupean Creole French (in Guadeloupe) gcf_GP, Martiniquean Creole French acf_MQ, Saint Lucian Creole French (in Saint Lucia) acf_LC, Dominican Creole French acf_DM, Grenadian Creole French acf_GD, Trinidadian Creole French acf_TT. I hope this is sufficient to make clear the distinctions required for the language varieties of concern. Best regards, Joan Spanne SIL International, ISO 639-3 Registration Authority" Thanks - Mixeur 12:43, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
