I'd like to see him create some content, too. But you don't need to ask permission
to mark living languages with a reasonable number of speakers as "eligible"; you
can just do it.

Hi,
At the Wikimedia Hackathon last week, I spoke to a speaker of Fon, a
language of Benin. He added a request for a new Fon Wikipedia and started
translating the interface.
The language has a code and is living and spoken by several millions of
people (statistics differ, between 2–4 million). Any objections to marking
as eligible?
