In principle the language committee has given permission for monolingual
texts. This is NOT given for labels, descriptions and aliases. That
requires involvement of native speakers. It requires an agreement of the
language committee.What makes you think you can add labels and descriptions correctly?
Thanks,GerardM
I thank you for your answer. First, I used public domain dictionaries as references. These dictionaries are written more than 50 years ago by native or proficient speakers of Arabic languages and they are currently used as a reference in Arabic Linguistics. Second, as I participated to AICCSA 2017 conference, I convinced several scientists from all the Arab world to add their datasets to Wikidata under CC-0. These datasets are precise as they are made using NLP tools and verified by a panel of native speakers.
