Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Spanish Visual Impairment
| submitted | verification | final decision |

|
This proposal has been rejected. This decision was taken by the language committee in accordance with the Language proposal policy based on the discussion on this page. A committee member provided the following comment: Making Wikipedia more accessible to visually-impaired users by adding audio articles or other aids is a good thing. However, doing this doesn't require creating a whole new site. Audio files can be added to the already-existing Wikipedia in Spanish, and in any other language. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amire80 (talk) 2024-11-06 (UTC)

- The community needs to develop an active test project; it must remain active until approval (automated statistics, recent changes). It is generally considered active if the analysis lists at least three active, not-grayed-out editors listed in the sections for the previous few months.
- The community needs to complete required MediaWiki interface translations in that language (about localization, translatewiki, check completion).
- The community needs to discuss and complete the settings table below:
| What | Value | Example / Explanation |
|---|
| Proposal | ||
|---|---|---|
| Language code | (SIL, Glottolog) | A valid ISO 639-1 or 639-3 language code, like "fr", "de", "nso", ... |
| Language name | Spanish Visual Impairment | Language name in English |
| Language name | Discapacidad Visual español | Language name in your language. This will appear in the language list on Special:Preferences, in the interwiki sidebar on other wikis, ... |
| Language Wikidata item | Q116744054 - item has currently the following values:
|
Item about the language at Wikidata. It would normally include the Wikimedia language code, name of the language, etc. Please complete at Wikidata if needed. |
| Directionality | LTR | Is the language written from left to right (LTR) or from right to left (RTL)? |
| Site URL | .wikipedia.org | langcode.wikiproject.org |
| Settings | ||
|---|---|---|
| Project name | Wikipédia | "Wikipedia" in your language |
| Project namespace | usually the same as the project name | |
| Project talk namespace | "Wikipedia talk" (the discussion namespace of the project namespace) | |
| Enable uploads | yes | Default is "no". Preferably, files should be uploaded to Commons. If you want, you can enable local file uploading, either by any user ("yes") or by administrators only ("admin").
Notes: (1) This setting can be changed afterwards. The setting can only be "yes" or "admin" at approval if the test creates an Exemption Doctrine Policy (EDP) first. (2) Files on Commons can be used on all Wikis. (3) Uploading fair-use images is not allowed on Commons (more info). (4) Localisation to your language may be insufficient on Commons. |
| Optional settings | ||
| Project logo | [[: |
This needs to be an SVG image (instructions for logo creation). |
| Default project timezone | America/Guadalajara | "Continent/City", e.g. "Europe/Brussels" or "America/Mexico City" (see list of valid timezones) |
| Additional namespaces | -龙2000 | For example, a Wikisource would need "Page", "Page talk", "Index", "Index talk", "Author", "Author talk". |
| Additional settings | Anything else that should be set | |

What is visual impairment? Visual impairment is a condition that directly affects the perception of images in whole or in part. Sight is a global sense that allows us to identify at a distance and at the same time objects already known or that are presented to us for the first time.
Discussion
edit- Oppose See LPP: If there is no valid ISO 639 code, you must try to obtain one. The Wikimedia Foundation does not seek to develop new linguistic entities; there must be an extensive body of works in that language. The information that distinguishes this language from another must ordinarily be sufficient to convince standards organizations to create an ISO 639 code. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 01:32, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
