Hi all,
I would like to propose the approval of the Dagbani Wikipedia. The activity
[1] is really good and stable, and the most used messages have all been
translated [2] (this was finished today actually – there were some 40ish
untranslated messages a couple of days ago, so I prodded Sadik Shahadu, one
of the main contributors, to complete them, and he responded very swiftly).
The community is really active not only on the Incubator, but in various
other areas of Wikimedia as well – as some of you may have heard, it was
selected as one of the focus languages for the Abstract Wikipedia project
[3]. In addition, they also have an active Wikimedia User Group [4], which
I believe is the only language-based user group for a language that's still
in the Incubator.
As for external validation, I am not sure that is necessary in this case,
but according to Amir, who has been helping them out with some things, it
should be rather easy to obtain if any of the committee members deem it
necessary.

For the record: Per the inactivity policy we decided on in 2017 [1], I have
removed three members from the language committee today (it was discussed
beforehand on the private mailing list), due to inactivity. Thank you very
much to SPQRobin, Millosh and Klbroome for all their efforts through the
years!

I'd like to propose the approval of these two projects (Tachelhit has
recently already been a topic here because of the script question).
That said, I'm sorry for writing such a lazy mail, because both need
verification of the content. I was planning on looking for it but currently
I just don't find the time to do it. Maybe this can motivate someone to use
their contacts? :D
