Yes, we should not repeat the mistake of creating three Wikipedias in essentially the same content language (hr / bs / sh). It's desirable to merge these Wikipedias, and theoretically it's even possible, but practically, it probably won't happen soon.
(Comment 1: As I mentioned in another email, I do think that Cyrillic Serbian should be separate, *given the current state of the language converter software*, which is quite good at showing different scripts to the readers, but doesn't allow storing different scripts in the database, which creates inconvenience for editors. Ideally, it should be possible to *edit* in whatever script that is convenient to the editor, but it will require a lot of work.) (Comment 2: All varieties should be allowed as different *user interface* languages, but it's a separate question anyway.) -- Amir Elisha Aharoni · אָמִיר אֱלִישָׁע אַהֲרוֹנִי http://aharoni.wordpress.com “We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace.” – T.
