There is a proposal [1] for Wikipedia in Bandjalang [2]. It is a
Pama–Nyungan language [3], an indigenous languages of Australia.

The problem with indigenous languages of Australia is that they are
used by very small number of speakers. The rule is that there are just
few dozen of speakers.

According to Ethnologue, the language is "shifting" [4], meaning that
it is not likely that there are young speakers.

Usual action in the situations like this one is to put the proposal
"on hold" and wait for native speakers. However, I think that WM AU
could do something here. And that's why I've added Gideon Digby into
communication.
