|
Discuss the creation of this language project on this page. Votes will be ignored when judging the proposal. Please provide arguments or reasons and be prepared to defend them (see the Language proposal policy).
The language committee needs to verify the language is eligible to be approved.
- Check that the project does not already exist (see list).
- Obtain an ISO 639 code
- Ensure the requested language is sufficiently unique that it could not exist on a more general wiki.
- Ensure that there are a sufficient number of native editors of that language to merit an edition in that language.

[edit] Proposal
We are in the process of developing an active community on the incubator at this point. I'm starting this procedure to seek eligibility for the language before investing efforts in the incubator if the language is not eligible for a Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amqui (talk • contribs) 06:22, 28.

[edit] Discussion
- Mik'mac is a language that is not used as much anymore, like acadian french (from the same region). ~~EBE123~~ talkContribs 16:00, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
- [Most of] The pages in the test-wiki are without context; just the name, an image with the page name, and the word in english and french. ~~EBE123~~ talkContribs 16:00, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
- Those pages already bears an informative and educational content as they are and can easily and will be developed. Amqui (talk) 20:18, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
- Les pages comme ça sont sans information qui va satisfaire personne. P.-S. Pourquoi avoir ce nouveau « namespace » Apoqonmati? ~~EBE123~~ talkContribs 16:07, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
- Je suis d'avis que le simple fait d'avoir le mot "orignal" à côté d'une photo d'original a une valeur éducative en soit et les pages sont destinées à être améliorées. Apoqonmati est le micmac pour Help. Amqui (talk) 20:40, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
