Discuss the creation of this language project on this page. Votes will be ignored when judging the proposal. Please provide arguments or reasons and be prepared to defend them (see the Language proposal policy).
The language committee needs to verify the language is eligible to be approved.
Check that the project does not already exist (see list).
Ensure the requested language is sufficiently unique that it could not exist on a more general wiki.
Ensure that there are a sufficient number of native editors of that language to merit an edition in that language.
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.
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.
"Wikiversity 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.
I an administrator in Hausa Wikipedia, I'm requesting for this new project language to boost free language knowledge sharing in the entire Wikimedia Movement towards 2023, as Hausa Community is rapidly growing with much participants both online and offline, we have more than three active editors to contribute in the project.AnasskokoTalk 18:17, 1 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support Although the Wikiversity content model is harder to develop, there is clearly enough potential of growth with the number of speakers of Hausa, and there could be benefitial for their community to create, develop and spread good open educational resources (OER) made by themselves with their needs in mind. It would be necessary to offer good help pages to assist potential contributors how to create good courses, tutorials or lectures that actually can be used to self learning. --Onwa (talk) 14:57, 9 May 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
