Requests for new languages/Wikivoyage Kurdish

Kurdish WikivoyageEdit

Request for a new language edition: Wikivoyage Kurdish

submitted	verification	final decision

	This proposal has been rejected. While this request has technically been rejected, in reality this is a request that has been sitting open or on hold for a long time with little evidence of a community coming together to build a project. If a community comes together in the future and makes a new request, LangCom would consider that new request without prejudice. A committee member provided the following comment: Only one mainspace page in Incubator, created in 2016. Please ask again when you are really ready to create content.

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	ku (SIL, Glottolog)	A valid ISO 639-1 or 639-3 language code, like "fr", "de", "nso", ...
Language name	Kurdish	Language name in English
Language name	kurdî	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	Q36368 - item has currently the following values: en label = Kurdish native label (P1705) = Zimanê Kurdî, زمانی کوردی, Kurdî, کوردی instance/subclass (P31/P279) = language, macrolanguage, modern language / Northwestern Iranian Wikimedia language code (P424) = ku writing system (P282) = Latin script, Arabic alphabet, Cyrillic number of speakers (P1098) = 31,000,000±1,000,000	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	no indication	Is the language written from left to right (LTR) or from right to left (RTL)?
Links		Links to previous requests, or references to external websites or documents.
Site URL	ku.wikivoyage.org	langcode.wikiproject.org

Settings
Project name		"Wikivoyage" in your language
Project namespace		usually the same as the project name
Project talk namespace		"Wikivoyage talk" (the discussion namespace of the project namespace)
Enable uploads	no	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	File:...	This needs to be an SVG image (instructions for logo creation).
Default project timezone	Continent/City	"Continent/City", e.g. "Europe/Brussels" or "America/Mexico City" (see list of valid timezones)
Additional namespaces		For example, a Wikisource would need "Page", "Page talk", "Index", "Index talk", "Author", "Author talk".
Additional settings		Anything else that should be set
submit phabricator task (includes everything automatically, except additional namespaces/settings)
