Mailing List Archive: Language Requests at Wikimedia Incubator

Wikimedia Incubator is there for testing new languages and new project
ideas. To this end we feel that it would make sense to move the
existing Meta page (Requests for new languages, Proposed projects
etc.) to Incubator.

We've had a couple of ideas about how to do this (specifically for the new
language requests).

1.
New requests are made at Incubator, old requests finish as they
would at Meta until the Meta page is empty.
2. All the current requests are moved to the Incubator and continued
there.
3. All the current requests are finished without consensus, and left
to start again at Incubator.

What do you lot think? Similar things could happen with new project
proposals, although it is more complicated (because of project description
pages etc.).

Thanks, Daniel.

Hello

I did not notice any comment on your email, so here is mine

I'd say moving requests for new languages over there makes sense.

However, I'd say that request for new projects should stay on meta. New
languages only need opinions collected on one page. projects requires
description, discussion, vote etc... taht's meta stuff
