Hi,
Such a project started already. It's in the "incubator" stage. See
https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/arq
Several things need to happen for this project to acquire its own domain,
probably
arq.wikipedia.org , but the most important thing is that this
project needs to have active writers. The current writing activity is low:
see
https://tools.wmflabs.org/meta/catanalysis/index.php?cat=0&title=Wp/arq…
If you write there more, it will be eventually approved.
For more information, see:

Hello,
We are a group of Algerians contributors to Wikipedia, we would like to
create a new Wikipedia portal for the widely local spoken language in north
Africa "Derija" which is driven from various languages like Arabic, French,
Amazight, Spanish ... ( see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algerian_Arabic
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darija )
The project is not influence by any political motivation, we would like to
ease the understanding of information for the people who does't speak
Arabic, French nor English in the region.
It would be interesting to point out that a similar experience has been
launched in 2008 in Egypt by creating a Wikipedia portal for the Egyptian
language with is similar to Arabic (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_Arabic and
https://arz.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%AF%D…
)
the experiment is having a lot of success in Egypt, and we would
like exactly to copy the Egyptian model but our goal is to reach the
population of 5 countries "Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Libya and
Mauritania".
We would like to know if it respects the terms of the Wikifondation, and
the process to follow to create the portal.
Best regards
Walid Zenad
