[edit] Arguments in favour

  • I am in, don't put this language into extinction --Andri.h 04:42, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Arguments against

  • In the past 9 months, since this proposal was made, there appears to have been no progress. No support, no effort for content creation in Incubator, no effort to add basic localisation. Dead as a doornail so to speak (unfortunately, because a Wikipedia in this language would certainly have a potential audience). Siebrand 11:35, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] General discussion

none.

[edit] Localisation effort

There is no observable localisation effort. GerardM 06:39, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
