Requests for new languages/Wikivoyage Fulfulde
Appearance
| submitted | verification | final decision |
| 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. |
- 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.
- The community needs to complete required MediaWiki interface translations in that language (about localization, translatewiki, check completion).
- The community needs to discuss and complete the settings table below:
| What | Value | Example / Explanation |
|---|
| Proposal | ||
|---|---|---|
| Language code | ff (SIL, Glottolog) | A valid ISO 639-1 or 639-3 language code, like "fr", "de", "nso", ... |
| Language name | Fulah | Language name in English |
| Language name | Fulfulde | Language name in your language. This will appear in the language list on Special:Preferences, in the interwiki sidebar on other wikis, ... |
| Language Wikidata item | Q33454 - item has currently the following values:
|
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. |
| Directionality | LTR | Is the language written from left to right (LTR) or from right to left (RTL)? |
| Site URL | ff.wikivoyage.org | langcode.wikiproject.org |
| Settings | ||
|---|---|---|
| Project name | Wikivoyage | "Wikivoyage" in your language |
| Project namespace | usually the same as the project name | |
| Project talk namespace | "Wikivoyage 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. |
| Optional settings | ||
| Project logo | File:... | This needs to be an SVG image (instructions for logo creation). |
| Default project timezone | Africa/Nigeria | "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 | |
Proposal
[edit]Fulfulde has more than 24 millions speakers. The Fulfulde Wikipedia community is rapidly growing. Now Fulfulde Wikipedia has over 11,000 articles. if Fulfulde Wikivoyage has own domain, it will be growing up like the Fulfulde Wikipedia -- DE-INVINCIBLE talk 06:14, 27 September 2025 (UTC)
- @De-Invincible In your request table, you entered "yes" for the Enable uploads setting, can you please explain why on setting so? And did you try to discuss this thing with other contributors, or even tried to establish such an EDP policy within the test project? --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 13:08, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
- @Liuxinyu970226 Thank you for the feedback, sir. The “yes” in the Enable uploads setting was included by mistake. We plan to use Wikimedia Commons for all media files, and we don’t need local uploads. Also, we have not yet discussed or established an EDP within the test project, but if needed in the future, we will start that discussion with contributors and follow the Wikimedia Foundation’s standard guidelines. Please, treat “Enable uploads” as No or if you allowed me I can simply change it. Thank you for your understanding and support. DE-INVINCIBLE talk 22:04, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
- Okay, I've boldly changed it under your suggestion. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 00:39, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
