This discussion was created before the implementation of the Language proposal policy, and it is incompatible with the policy. Please open a new proposal in the format this page has been converted to (see the instructions).

Oppose[edit]

What exactly do you meen by commonly spoken languages!!?! Is Serbian language and culture not important and rich enough, or tens of millions of people who speak or understand Serbian are not numberous (important?!) enough? On second tought, I do agree with you. Furthermore, on the next meeting of Serbian Wikimedia local chapter, I (since I'm vicepresident) will demand that Serbian chapter be disbanded. Such a nerve we Serbs have.. to organize local chapter FIFTH in the world, even before all the important countries organized their chapters. -- Obradovic Goran 19:48, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose It's too much too soon. Serbian Wikipedia is pretty much the only living project in Serbian, let's get that one straight and then perhaps dictionary and books and only then, maybe, time could be right for 'versity --Dzordzm 03:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
