Having heard no comments on the proposals with respect to Egyptian and Homshetsma over the last seven days, I will close both as rejected, as described in my original message.

Amir: Someone has written a response to your email to LangCom at the bottom of the discussion page on Meta.
Gerard: You don't get asked all that often here to spend a lot of time on an involved, complicated decision. If I thought I could easily digest it and feed it to you I would. But I don't. I'm not asking you for a lot of time; rather, the community you serve needs you to spend the appropriate amount of time to see the latest evidence and decide what you think.

Subject: [Langcom] Four more Wikipedia requests dating to the summer

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"Wikipedia Egyptian (https://eur01.safelinks.
Here are four more requests dating back to 2010 that I'd like to dispose of:
protection.outlook.com/?url= ): Propose to reject. SIL marks as an ancient language; it's a predecessor of Coptic. Writing is hieroglyphics. There is no test project underway at Incubator, and the original proposer has not been active in over five years.https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia. org%2Fwiki%2FRequests_for_new_ languages%2FWikipedia_ Egyptian&data=02%7C01%7C% 7Cb132479a4ebe4740554308d55cd8 cd68% 7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaa aaaa%7C1%7C0% 7C636517008594733253&sdata=% 2BrODi9KQti4q37oqlUNtLv68UUvl5 IHCpK%2FG%2Fp5Bfw4%3D& reserved=0
Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Nigerian Pidgin (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url= ): Marking as eligible. Ethnologue gives a figure (dating to 2005) of 30 million speakers; though not all are native, it's a widely used pidgin. Ethnologue says there isn't really a written standard, but as of 2016 there is a BBC service in the pidgin, so we can probably steer people in that direction to some extent.https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia. org%2Fwiki%2FRequests_for_new_ languages%2FWikipedia_ Nigerian_Pidgin&data=02%7C01% 7C% 7Cb132479a4ebe4740554308d55cd8 cd68% 7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaa aaaa%7C1%7C0% 7C636517008594733253&sdata= s0udxN8jheX7fbc37aZbExOwaoZ3pk s2Alaeqr5AMRU%3D&reserved=0
Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Pipil (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url= )https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia. org%2Fwiki%2FRequests_for_new_ languages%2FWikipedia_Pipil& data=02%7C01%7C% 7Cb132479a4ebe4740554308d55cd8 cd68% 7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaa aaaa%7C1%7C0% 7C636517008594733253&sdata= UPsCIDgHLDNmWa5hvaHJ5q4j7vKJp% 2BJkFIZK24s249k%3D&reserved=0 : Marking as eligible. Central American language classified by Glottolog as an Eastern Nahuatl language. Pipil is near extinction, and test project hasn't been all that active recently. But there's a decent amount of content there, and if it's valid content, then this is probably a project that should be encouraged. No objections were noted on the RFL page.
Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Homshetsma (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url= ): Propose to reject. See https://eur01.safelinks.https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia. org%2Fwiki%2FRequests_for_new_ languages%2FWikipedia_ Homshetsma&data=02%7C01%7C% 7Cb132479a4ebe4740554308d55cd8 cd68% 7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaa aaaa%7C1%7C0% 7C636517008594733253&sdata= 3M5X3ioExyMGt7RFFfeMsxI3Fg% 2F0JYynTVv3QGqnp6k%3D& reserved=0 protection.outlook.com/?url= Western Armenian dialect not fully intelligible with Armenian. It has no ISO code, and a small number of L1 speakers. The proposal dates to the (northern hemisphere) summer of 2010, and there has been no material discussion there since then. If it ever gets a code, we could revisit; if Western Armenian gets a code, it could possibly be included there.http%3A%2F%2Fglottolog.org% 2Fresource%2Flanguoid%2Fid% 2Fhoms1234&data=02%7C01%7C% 7Cb132479a4ebe4740554308d55cd8 cd68% 7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaa aaaa%7C1%7C0% 7C636517008594733253&sdata= hfLYK5yCqF4H6jLbT3jNo7hVKv% 2FT7AdcVI0o5JKeuP0%3D& reserved=0:
