Hoi,
How many original Wikivoyage projects exist that have not been
automagically exported exist ?? With Portuguese as the example, it would
make sense to have it started in its own wiki. The language committee has
made an exception for existing projects. The Portuguese project exists and
as such it can start there is nothing about what has been technically
possible to export/import in this.
The only thing we expect is a previously existing project. It will be nice
to have a list of languages that fit this bill.
Thanks,
Gerard

One of the biggest
projects?????? This is true?? 2000 articles, importing by hand???
Hi Rodrigo,
we were only able to import languages from Wikivoyage where dumps were
prepared and pre-processed by the Wikivoyage-folks (who are, BTW, all
volunteers and have done amazing work on this). So all the languages
from
wikivoyage-old.org were imported. We can't support additional
case-by-case dump imports and pre-processing because the process is
pretty complex and error-prone. Additional near-term tech effort we
spend on Wikivoyage will be focused on fixing remaining site issues,
of which there are quite a few.
So yeah, articles would have to be manually copied and attributed via
template. :( But perhaps LangCom would make an exception to quickly
approve blank wikis for languages where it seems likely that there's a
viable community, so at least the incubator step could be skipped.
Erik
