By far, the oldest remaining unaddressed Requests for new languages on the Meta 
RFL page are those of Wikipedia Balochi [macrolanguage] and Wikipedia Eastern 
Balochi, both of which date to the summer of 2010.  In addition to those two 
requests, there is an RFL for Southern Balochi, marked "eligible" by Gerard in 
2008, and an RFL for Western Balochi, open and unaddressed since 2014.

At some point, Satdeep was looking into these. But I think the first question 
is this:

  *   Are these languages mutually intelligible? In particular, are they 
mutually intelligible in writing?

Can someone at least help me get an answer to that question? I have the sense 
from the English Wikipedia article Balochi 
language<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balochi_language>—the one article covers 
all—that they are. But that's just a sense; it's not proof.  The answer to that 
question will dictate the next steps to take.
