Northern Sami language is a language with ca 20,000 speakers in a very computer-denstiy area, I think is a very good idea at starting a Northern Sami Wiktionary.

Arguments in favour

• strong support. Northern Saami is one of the official languages in northern parts of Norway, Sweden and Finland. In Finland Research Institute for the Languages of Finland (here in Northern Saami) looks after its development. – Artomo 22:26, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
