I promised I was going to keep old project requests moving along after the new 
year. So here are four:


Wikipedia 
Swabian<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Swabian>:
 Propose to reject. Although it has a language code, Swabian is already 
included within Alemannic Wikipedia.  Starting initial seven-day clock on this 
now.

Wikipedia 
Manchu<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Manchu_2>
 (on hold since March 2010, waiting for native speakers): Marking eligible. 
This project has been fairly active on Incubator recently, and the tool to 
allow the vertical Manchu script is working very nicely.

Wikipedia 
Kutchi<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Kutchi>:
 Marking eligible. Has a language code, and about 875,000 speakers in India and 
Pakistan.

Wikipedia 
Kumaoni<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Kumaoni>:
 Marking as "on hold". In principle, should be eligible. But there is no test 
project on Incubator, and most speakers are bilingual in Hindi. (It's not that 
these are mutually intelligible languages, just that Hindi is a lingua franca 
in the area.) So I'd like to place this on hold until someone comes who is 
interested in starting the project.
