If he has been contributing to the Northern Luri Wikipedia, he would not be our preferred person to go to for verification. Verification should be done by someone not connected to wikipedia, i.e. an outsider who could look at the wiki articles through an unbiased lens. And anyway, before we can take the step towards verification, we first have to agree that Northern Luri Wikipedia has fulfilled all requirements prior to the step of verification. I would hope that one of the LangCom members could summarise Northern Luri's progress again for computationally challenged folks like me.

Thanks,
Oliver

After I researched, I found a lot of articles around the Internet only written in Persian by a person named Gholamreza Mehramooz (Persian: غلامرضا مهرآموز, pronounced: [ɣolɒːmɾezɒː mehɾɒːmuːz <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_Persian>) about Luri languages. After I contacted Mohammad Mogoei (User:Mogoeilor), it seems like Mr. Mehramooz actually is a university professor and he has PhD, and he has been contributing to Northern Luri Wikipedia under user name User:‏Mehramooz, please contact him for the verification.

Have we passed step #1 yet? i.e. has Northern Luri fulfilled the requirements for leaving the incubator? If yes, is the aforementioned Erik Anonby an acceptable reference? I've actually met him several years ago at a linguistics conference, so if we all agree that we've concluded step #1, I'd be happy to contact him to see whether he himself could verify Northern Luri or whether he could recommend someone else to do so for us.

Fwiw,

Thanks, that sounds perfectly reasonable. Is there an owner to the process, e.g. a committee secretary, to ensure that in case of silence after asking #2, there is actual progress toward #3, so that it doesn't fall between the cracks?

                you can see on the figure #2, said
                "Luri-Lurestani-khorramabadi" is the main dialect
                and "Luri-Borujerdi" is the other dialect of
                Northern Luri (lrc), and on the figure #3 shown
                west of current Iran's map, said "Lurestani" is the
                main area of Northern Luri (lrc), lower on these
                dialects is "Laki" on the figure #2 sands for Laki
                language (lki) , and "Laki" area on the figure #3.
                On the figure #2 upper of Northern Luri (lrc)
                dialects you can see the "Bakhtiari" (bqi) dialects
                and "Kohkiloyeh" and "Bouyerahmad" (Southern Luri
                [luz]) as well. On pages #186 to #197 you can
                compares the example differences between these
                languages.
