This language has been verified as eligible. The language is eligible for a project, which means that the subdomain can be created once there is an active community and a localized interface, as described in the language proposal policy. You can discuss the creation of this language project on this page.
Once the criteria are met, the language committee can proceed with the approval.
If you think the criteria are met, but the project is still waiting for approval, feel free to notify the committee and ask them to consider its approval.
The community needs to develop an active test project; it must remain active until approval (automated statistics, recent changes). It is generally considered active if the analysis lists at least three active, not-grayed-out editors listed in the sections for the previous few months.
Item about the language at Wikidata. It would normally include the Wikimedia language code, name of the language, etc. Please complete at Wikidata if needed.
"Wikibooks talk" (the discussion namespace of the project namespace)
Enable uploads
no
Default is "no". Preferably, files should be uploaded to Commons.
If you want, you can enable local file uploading, either by any user ("yes") or by administrators only ("admin"). Notes: (1) This setting can be changed afterwards. The setting can only be "yes" or "admin" at approval if the test creates an Exemption Doctrine Policy (EDP) first. (2) Files on Commons can be used on all Wikis. (3) Uploading fair-use images is not allowed on Commons (more info). (4) Localisation to your language may be insufficient on Commons.
"Continent/City", e.g. "Europe/Brussels" or "America/Mexico City" (see list of valid timezones)
Additional namespaces
For example, a Wikisource would need "Page", "Page talk", "Index", "Index talk", "Author", "Author talk".
Additional settings
Anything else that should be set
submit Phabricator task. It will include everything automatically, except additional namespaces/settings. After creating the task, add a link to the comment.
Number of speakers: 80–100 million total (including second language speakers)
SupportSupport This language has a rich written history spanning from 804 AD and many, many native speakers. Therefore this language deserves a wikibooks domain. Meursault2004 08:10, 19 September 2006 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please see Shanels comment above: If the community is still interested, please edit the test project. If not already done so, please translate the necessary localization files. It is not active. --OosWesThoesBes 05:47, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
If you're asking about Javanese-Banyumasan, the contributors of that project feels that their language differs from the standard Javanese. It needs a proper linguist to really tell the difference and assign them a separate language code, but as for now, they don't have their own language code yet, so they use "map-bms". There are some intricacies with Javanese language, and I'm planning to talk about it in Wikimania HK 2013. ✒Bennylin 14:28, 18 January 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
The localisation of Javanese is one of the requirement for approval. Currently the statistics show 35.08% 0.35% 18.79% 0.10%. The first three should be at 100%. GerardM 20:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]
