[edit] Arguments in favour
Support. Japanese Wikipedia stands so lonely in its language family :( And also the Okinawan test wiki looks so good! --ɴõɴəχүsƚ 12:35, 1 November 2010 (UTC)- Weak support I think Okinawan deserves a Wikipedia, but some native speakers should come. Kanzler31 01:42, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Arguments against
- Contra, for now. Although I am a big supporter of Ryukyuan languages, the incubator might as well be empty and there are no native speakers assisting this project. --Node ue 09:31, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Other discussion
- The request for project is eligible. Please create Incubator project and go to the FirstSteps page at Translatewiki to start with localization. --Millosh 03:26, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
