Hoi,
For the record I am all in favour of more Wikipedias of a flavour of Arabic.
Thanks,

The "booklet" runs in the same vein as the
website
https://sites.google.com/site/stundardtunsi/ which we looked at last year
(it bears the same logo "STUNdard"). I herewith repeat the review of an
independent Tunisian Arabic scholar which I elicited last year:
"[...] it looks, despite the claims made on the website ("this project is
not against any language"), to be an almost anti-Arabic project, out of
tune with the wider population in choice of script, and even then showing
both inconsistencies in writing, and writing allophones according to how
the sound would be written in French. Even the style of Latin script is not
how Tunisians write when doing so in Latin script - there seems to be a nod
to Maltese, and I, even with an awareness of how Maltese works, had
difficulty in reading it in places. Also they seem to prefer technical
terms from French than (even commonly used) ones from Standard Arabic.
Chances of any of this being adopted... low. But thanks for the link!"
Consequently, I'm with Amir in rejecting Latin script for Tunisian Arabic.
Fwiw,
Oliver

Again, the question of writing system is the first one that we need to
tackle.

Hoi,
At the time we asked for approval for eligibility. It was denied.

Nobody spoke about the Board yet.
First there's the question of writing system, on which the Langcom has
to agree.
I cannot support Latin until I see convincing sources that it's useful
to the speakers of this language.

Hoi,
In the past we accepted Egyptian Arabic. After
that we were told that
Arabic will not be accepted.. So yes, we can read this article but as long
as the board does not accept all the projects WE approve...
Thanks,
GerardM
