[edit] Arguments in favour
- It is time to give Baloch people Opportunity to use open contents in their language. -Mostafadaneshvar 23:33, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- Native speakers of Baluchi are willing to contribute to this project in the long-term, hence this project has the potential to flourish like the other Northwestern Iranian language Wikipedia editions such as Gilaki, Mazanderani etc. Therefore the Baluchi language ought to be given the opportunity and priviledge to have its own language edition of Wikipedia. --Jose77 08:03, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- I agree to create Balouchi wikipedia. - Mehdi.taajer 10:29, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- I suppose other Balochi can contribute in this project as well. I mean Baloch from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Oman and U.A.E.Mostafadaneshvar 21:49, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- As the language is Southern Balouchi, people can contribute as long as they contribute in Southern Balouchi. GerardM 18:41, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

- Strong Support Yes, After waiting for about 3 years, Now i hope that we can have this great language of our cousins in wikipedia, Another sister in the cool family of northwestern iranian languages, It would be at least a great source of writen materials in this language for my linguistic friends in germany and sweden, In iran however linguistics think about persian, Unfortunately. --Ali 10:30, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Strong Support I am a sysop at the Zazaki Wikipediya. Beluchi is spoken by over 5 million people, so I am confident that they will create a successful Wikipedia. --Maviulke12 06:07, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Strong Support. Balochi is a nothernwest Iranian language. --Asmen 12:16, 16 June 2008 (CET)

[edit] Arguments against
[edit] Other discussion
The language policy allows for only one language code for Baluchi... given that bcc is chosen, do you agree that you want to have a project for Southern Baluchi ? 08:25, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, we agree. First I suggested "bal" code for starting localizing but it is generic code so we decided to work on "bcc".Mostafa 08:48, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- I was going to comment on that. Maybe it could be labelled as just Baluchi to avoid being restrictive, as a dialect code is basically imposed by a quirk in the ISO code anyway? I'm not familiar enough with the issue to tell whether these are legitimately dialects or languages, though. Circeus 20:20, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
- There is an explicit need to be restrictive in this. GerardM 10:48, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Localisation update
- Currently 100.00% of the most used MediaWiki messages have been localised. Localisation of these messages is a requirement before your request is finally assessed. This is the recent localisation activity for your language. Thanks, GerardM 12:55, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Observable information
- There are currently not enough articles.. The articles that I have seen are of a nice size. Thanks, GerardM 12:58, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- There is also not enough activity. GerardM 12:58, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
