Hi all,
I have just sent a request to a linguist contact of mine at Helsinki University in the hope that we might get an expert on Votic through her. Watch this space.
Otherwise, I'm fine with approving Votic.
Cheers,
Oliver

Hi all, I propose to approve Votic Wikipedia (vot).
Meta request: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Votic
Test wiki: https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/vot
Activity: http://toolserver.org/~pathoschild/catanalysis/?cat=0 http://toolserver.org/~pathoschild/catanalysis/?cat=0&title=Wp/vot&wiki=inc ubatorwiki_p#distribution_201309 &title=Wp/vot&wiki=incubatorwiki_p#distribution_201309 (always at least 3 users with >10 edits since 5 months, and also previous such activity in 2012).
Translation of the most-used messages is complete (<http://toolserver.org/~robin/?tool=codelookup http://toolserver.org/~robin/?tool=codelookup&code=vot &code=vot>).
As this would be the first project in Votic, we also would need an expert to verify the content.
(By the way, verification for Livonian is still pending - my attempts to contact people were unsuccesful).
Best regards, MF-Warburg
