Hi,
Every now and then there are proposals to add support for writing Minnan in
Chinese characters.
Currently, there is a Wikipedia in Minnan in Latin characters:
https://zh-min-nan.wikipedia.org . (Its domain should probably be renamed
to nan.wikipedia.org, but that is blocked for unfortunate technical reasons
and this is not what this email is about.)
However, there are proposals to allow that language in Chinese characters,
at least as a localization, for example:
*
https://en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:The_dog2&oldid=392840…
* https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T180771
I am not opposed to adding nan-hani or nan-hant or something like that for
MediaWiki localization (whether to make a whole wiki in that language is a
separate question, not for discussion in this thread). However, I know
almost nothing about these languages. Can anyone think of a reason not to
do it?
And if it's done, what should the code be? nan-hani, nan-hant, or something
else?

Hi,
Can anyone help find an expert to check the Awadhi Wikipedia Incubator?
The localization there is done, the activity looks pretty OK to me, and a
very informal check I did tells me that the language is probably OK. That
is, I asked some friends from India, and they told me that the it doesn't
look fake, although I'd still prefer to ask someone more formal.
