I remember talking to WM Australia reps in Berlin about Nyungar but to
my knowledge, allowing nys:wp to be written in English was not part of
that discussion. Actually, I remember trying to make clear that the
involvement of native speakers is a sine-qua-non for any new anguage
wikipedia. Maybe, it wasn't understood that this also implied writing in
the particular language in question, i.e. here Nyungar.
Otherwise, I support Gerard's suggestion of making this a special wiki
project instead of a wikipedia.
Fwiw,
Oliver

I don't remember such a discussion either.

Hoi,
A lot may have been discussed in Berlin but this was not
communicated afterwards .. So no.
Thanks,

Jon Harald, I think I was told at one point that this was
discussed in Berlin, and would be acceptable for the purpose
of helping to support this project in an Australian aboriginal
language. But as I was not in Berlin, I'd like some LangCom
member who was there to confirm this.
Gnangarra, other than with respect to that question, it looks
like things are ready by the numbers: decent number of pages,
not mostly stubs, "most used" translation complete, sufficient
activity. Here was my main concern: In my random check of
pages, I found some BLP pages that I was not
entirely comfortable with. Now, I can appreciate that there
may be personalities you want to highlight in this project
that are mostly notable within the context of the community,
rather than at large. But there are still good reasons that
BLP requires reliable sourcing, and I thought some of the BLP
pages I saw were kind of shaky in that regard. I don't think
I'd withhold project approval for that, but between now and
project creation, and then in the first year of the new wiki,
I'd really want to see some of that tightened up.
