A language spoken on the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia by 65,000 people. --OosWesThoesBes 08:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Arguments in favour
- Agreed with OosWesThoesBes comment below --Andri.h 04:39, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Es gibt noch keine Enzyklopädie in die Mentawei Sprache. Es wird sicherlich ein gutes Projekt werden. Päge bintën 09:44, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Arguments against
- Why this request ? There are thousands of other languages ... GerardM 20:00, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
- This is one of the few coded languages I speak well enough for a Wikipedia which hasn't got a Wikipedia yet. The other possibility was Karaim. --OosWesThoesBes 15:07, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Obviously there is no interested community. --Thogo (talk) 08:25, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Why not? I currently have got contact with native speakers and I will show them the advantages of a Wikipedia. They might be interested, and don't forget me :) --OosWesThoesBes 15:06, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
