Dear Mr.,
I thank you for your answer. Of course, all the Arabic dialects have semantic
distinctive features. That is why we would like them to be supported by
Wikidata. Our idea is to add labels in all Arabic dialects to Wikidata entities
and then use the final output in the Natural Language Processing of the Arabic
dialects. We will use for that existing resources and the datasets we built.
Yours Sincerely,
Houcemeddine Turki

Hoi,
At the time when the Egyptian Arabic Wikipedia was created, there was a lot of
blowback because "there is only one Arabic". There is not, it is why these are
considered languages by linguists and not dialects.
In my personal opinion, all the Arabic languages may have their Wikipedia, they
may certainly have recognition in Wikidata.
Thanks,
GerardM

How many of those are supported by MediaWiki? Can you help find
translators for the missing ones?
