Requests for new languages/Wiktionary Madurese
| 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 | mad (SIL, Glottolog) | A valid ISO 639-1 or 639-3 language code, like "fr", "de", "nso", ... |
| Language name | Madurese | Language name in English |
| Language name | Bhâsa Madhurâ | 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 | Q36213 - 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 | mad.wiktionary.org | langcode.wikiproject.org |
| Settings | ||
|---|---|---|
| Project name | Wikioca' | "Wiktionary" in your language |
| Project namespace | Wikioca' | usually the same as the project name |
| Project talk namespace | Parembhâghân_Wikioca' | "Wiktionary 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 | Asia/Jakarta | "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]
Madurese is a language in the Austronesian Malayo-Polynesian language family. It is spoken by approximately 15 million people in Indonesia, mainly on Madura Island, with considerable speakers in East Java Island[1].
H. N. Kiliaan, a Dutch colonial government civil servant in 1898, first attempted to compile a Dutch-Madurese lexicon[2]. He then published the first Madurese-Dutch Dictionary (in two volumes) in 1904 and 1905 [3][4]. In the steps of Kiliaan's works, Stokmans & Marinissen and Penninga & Hendriks compiled a shorter version of Dutch-Madurese dictionaries in the following years, the first being in 1922 and the latter in 1936[5][6]. In the Indonesia's post-independence period, Safioedin (1977) published a Madurese-Indonesian Dictionary with adaptations to Indonesian spelling[7]. Henceforth, the development of the Madurese lexicographical activity stagnated until, in 2008, Pawitra compiled the Complete Madurese-Indonesian Dictionary, derived from the works of Kiliaan[8]. Pawitra's dictionary is widely used and recognized as the standard lexicon for Madurese-Indonesian translation since its adaptations of the Madurese orthography system.
Unfortunately, Pawitra's dictionary is no longer in reprint. For us, Madurese native speakers and learners, this could lead to the loss of crucial lexicographical documentation about the Madurese language, containing words and phrases that are rarely used or still frequently used in colloquial scenes. Therefore, the Wikimedia Madurese Contributors propose adding entries from this dictionary to be available in the Madurese Language Wiktionary. Hence, the Madurese Lexicon is freely accessible to everyone.

Discussion[edit]
- Support The Madurese language is widely spoken in Madura Island and part of East Java province. However, similar to many languages in Indonesia, little documentation, such as a dictionary, has survived. The Madurese community began to grow Madurese Wikipedia, and since then, their activities have been thriving. They have regular meetups and edit-a-thons to attract newcomers to become contributors, which includes edit-a-thons in this Incubator. I recommend the Language Committee approve this project.
