Hoi,
There are a couple of things that are a requirement before a new language
gets its first project:
- The language has to have an ISO-639-3 code and it has to be a natural
language; this it is
- A request has to be made on Meta
- An incubator project has to be started and it needs a few hundred
articles of sufficient size that allow an expert to appreciate that it is
indeed the language it is said to be
- A request for a new language has to be made at at translatewiki.net
- The most used MediaWiki messages need to be localised at
translatewiki.net
What will make a big practical difference is when technical expertise is
provided for the creation of an applicable keyboard mapping or WebFonts.
Marathi and Nepali both use Devanagari but the rules for combining things
is different from for instance Hindi. The best place for this is by
creating a language support team for Ahirani.
Thanks,
Gerard
