I've verified as eligible the request for Eastern Punjabi Wikisource
[1]. Although the situation is not totally clear, I've been following
previous (2013) verification of the request for Wikiquote in Punjabi
[2].
At least in Wikimedia projects, ISO 639-1 code "pa" is used for
Eastern Punjabi and, in general, requests for unmarked Punjabi
projects are treated as requests for Eastern Punjabi.
I suppose we should send this note to the IETF Task Force for
languages to have the rules synchronized (although I suppose they are
synchronized anyway).

Hi Langcom,
First of all thank you very much for response.
I know some writers, journalists and social workers, which are belonging
to Doteli community. I am in touch with Doteli language scholars also. So,
i can keep them in this thread.
Thanks
Best

Hoi,
For languages with an ISO-639-3 code it is OK to have Wikidata support
them. For French and in particular Canadian French the same rationale does
not exist.
What is our opinion about including Canadian French as a Wikidata only
language? In my opinion it is only through the same way as it is done for
British English that this is fine.
Thanks,
GerardM

Hi,
Danny B., a veteran Czech Wikimedia volunteer, asked me about joining the
Langcom.
He is already very experienced with the Incubator, and he can help with
cleaning up the long requests backlog, so I support this.
