--- Comment #5 from Gion-Andri Cantieni <[email protected]> 2009-12-28 14:51:18 UTC --- I'll try to explain what's the issue. In Romansh, we have 5 “idioms” (written dialects); Sursilvan, Sutsilvan, Surmiran, Puter and Vallader. Since 1984, there is an unified Romansh, the Rumantsch Grischun. The problem is, that we can't and won't make six different wikipedias. So I decided to translate the interface of wikipedia into Rumantsch Grischun. But a big part of Romanish-people can't write Rumantsch Grischun active. So there are articles in many different idioms. First, we discussed the problem in the “pinta”, our general discussion page: http://rm.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_pinta/Archiv/2008#Problem_idioms There we decided to certainly accept articles in all the idioms, but to introduce a system to tag them. The I've summarized the results of the discussion in this article: http://rm.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Artitgel The article describes some minimal conditions for articles in the Romansh Wikipedia, a paragraph that asks to indicate the sources and to respect the copyrights and the system we want to use to organize all the articles in the different idioms: All the articles are placed under the lemma in Rumantsch Grischun. Artichles in Idioms are placed such as: LemmaInRumantschGrischun/Sursilvan. If the article in Rumantsch Grischu doesn't have any content, it will redirect to the biggest article in a idiom. The lemma in the idiom will also be redirected to LemmaInRumantschGrischun/Sursilvan. This is the reason why we want to change the title of a page and introduce subpages in the Main Namespace. (AFAIK the allemanic wikipedia uses a similar System). As you can see, there are not more than 5-6 users regular active on our wikipedia. And the regular active people (like Rubadur, Gion, Andreas, pne and some other) discussed all on the pages indicated and are agreed with this system. I hope this is what you needed.
