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). 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.

"Wikisource talk" (the discussion namespace of the project namespace)
Enable uploads
yes
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.

I have been working on the Bishnupriya Manipuri Wikipedia project since it started, and I am an admin. Now we have 25000+ articles. We are interested to extend our work to the Wikisource project. Wikisource project for Bishnupriya Manipuri language is most important because
Bishnupriya Manipuri language is an endangered language. If we can use the Wikisource project, it will be a wonderful way to keep historical documents for our future generation.
A good way to attract Bishnupriya Manipuri readers to learn about Bishnupriya Manipuri literature and history.
I believe it is time to start Bishnupriya Manipuri Wikisource. Usingha (talk) 22:01, 2 September 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
