Steven, thanks - that's brilliant! We need such overviews - otherwise, there's always this thought in the back of my mind that some project might be ready without us knowing. Thanks for keeping tabs on incubator! (and many other things as well ...)

Oliver, your last summary suggests to me that I should let everyone know in a broader sense what's going on at Incubator right now.


I did a thorough review of Incubator inJuly 2017.  At that point in time:


  * There were approximately 1,000 tests having at least one page of
    content.
  * Of those, about 550 were either "substantial" (at least 25
    mainspace pages) or "active" (had at least one mainspace page
    created on or after January 2016) or both. (Those are pretty
    generous definitions, I think.) The other 450 met neither standard.
  * Exactly ten (10) test had fully met the activity requirements for
    approval:
      o Two were actually already approved, but had not yet been
        deleted from Incubator (Dinka Wikipedia and Dutch Wikinews)
      o Three have subsequently been approved and created (Bashkir
        Wikibooks, Hindi Wikivoyage, Fiji Hindi Wiktionary)
      o Two have been cleared for final language review (Ingush
        Wikipedia, Gorontalo Wikipedia)
      o One has met all requirements, but still requires discussion
        (Lingua Franca Nova Wikipedia)
      o The last two are not quite ready for approval yet on other
        grounds (Algerian Arabic Wikipedia, Atayal Wikipedia)
  * I made notes on another 18 or so tests (as comments in the
    templates feeding Incubator:Wikis
    <https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incubator:Wikis>) that are
    "close to ready". These either (a) had periods in the past that
    were active enough, (b) were just shy of active enough recently,
    or (c) have a lot of content, but too few contributors.


I plan to do a similar review about twice a year, if I can manage the time. I try to keep a close eye on the 20 or so tests that are "close" in between.
