I asked Biyanto Rebin from Wikimedia Indonesia, and he writes:
Dear Jon,
Yes. It is definitely Balinese language. I know the community very well
and since last year, they have held a lot of meetups and editathon events,
that is why they are very active.
Best wishes,
I also asked Revi Soekatno (User:Meursault2004) on Facebook, and he writes:
Yes it unmistakenly Balinese and some articles are very nice
That should be enough confirmation, no? If not we could reach out to
BASABali like Eddie suggested.
