< Hence, I suggest marking this proposal eligible for a Dogri Wikipedia in Devanagari Language.>

It should be Devanagari script, not language.

Subject: [Langcom] Proposal for eligibility of [Wikipedia in] Dogri

Hi all,

The first Indic language request I saw today was a request for Wikipedia Dorgi.[1]

Dogri is one of the 22 scheduled languages of India.[2] The Wikipedia article mentions that Dogri is written in both Devanagari and Perso-Arabic scripts. I personally have known Dogri to be written in Devanagari and certain books published by the Government of India have also used Devanagari script.[3]

The person who proposed the project has also used Devanagari script while writing the language name in the language.

Hence, I suggest marking this proposal eligible for a Dogri Wikipedia in Devanagari Language.
