Hoi Jan-Bart
When a new language is deemed "eligible" we, the language committee, inform the chair of the board because he or she has a week to indicate that the board does not agree with our recommendation. When the chair of the board does not reply a bug in bugzilla will be asking for the new language.
At this time I ask formal permission for Ottoman Turkish to be *exclusively*used for Wikidata and its applications. Ottoman Turkish is a historic language but with information in this language we will be able to include the original name of something in an info-box in any Wikipedia.
Jan-Bart we are likely to make requests like this for many living languages in the near future as well because it is expected that in 6 months time development starts of integrating Wikidata to Commons. This will make it possible to optimally search for pictures in the native language of the children of this world. To a large extend this is already possible for the "big"languages like Dutch. (It only requires a relatively easy hack for this to happen.... Interested? )
Thanks, Gerard
