If Anonby thinks that it's a shame Lurish must use more old Lurish verbs that new driven from Persian verbs, then we should start speaking in Old English. btw Mohammad Mogoei (Mogoeilor) is native Northeren Luri from capital of Lurestan province and he knows all dialects of Luri language including Southern and Bakhtiari.

I. We still haven't formally said yet that Northern Luri is an eligible language, but it seems like there is no issue with it.

II. Activity: Most-used msgs are complete [1] & contributions on Incubator are steady since >12 months (thousands of small edits always by Mogoeilor, who should use preview more often, but also contributions from other users), though so far in this month only 2 users over the 10-edit-threshold [2].

III. About Erik Anonby's response, I wonder how "welcoming" the peculiarities noted by him would be to other speakers of the language who do not use this particular dialect. Should we maybe ask him or Mehdi Moshkriz for their opinion on that?

Have we passed step #1 yet? i.e. has Northern Luri fulfilled the requirements for leaving the incubator?
If yes, is the aforementioned Erik Anonby an acceptable reference? I've actually met him several years ago at a linguistics conference, so if we all agree that we've concluded step #1, I'd be happy to contact him to see whether he himself could verify Northern Luri or whether he could recommend someone else to do so for us.

Fwiw,
Oliver

Thanks, that sounds perfectly reasonable. Is there an owner to the process, e.g. a committee secretary, to ensure that in case of silence after asking #2, there is actual progress toward #3, so that it doesn't fall between the cracks?

We obviously discuss

1. whether at this stage we need to verify the content at all

2. if yes, whether someone knows an expert already

3. if no, whom to contact.

Then we contact people.

I'm not clear on the committee's process: Is it the expectation of this committee that nothing will happen until Someone<tm> produces expert testimony confirming that the content currently in the Northern Luri Wikipedia is in fact Northern Luri? Or is the committee taking any steps to secure such testimony?

Here's the article I found titled "Update on Luri: How many languages?" by Erik John Anonby: original link, you can see on the figure #2, said "Luri-Lurestani-khorramabadi" is the main dialect and "Luri-Borujerdi" is the other dialect of Northern Luri (lrc), and on the figure #3 shown west of current Iran's map, said "Lurestani" is the main area of Northern Luri (lrc), lower on these dialects is "Laki" on the figure #2 sands for Laki language (lki) , and "Laki" area on the figure #3. On the figure #2 upper of Northern Luri (lrc) dialects you can see the "Bakhtiari" (bqi) dialects and "Kohkiloyeh" and "Bouyerahmad" (Southern Luri [luz]) as well. On pages #186 to #197 you can compares the example differences between these languages.

As I mentioned also concerning Western Balochi, we need an outside scholar / linguist / language expert for verification purposes. Any useful bona-fide contacts?

This is the list of top articles was provided by Mogoeilor, even he named the language of this wikipedia, Northern Luri on their main page, and I didn't see that.

Hoi,
A longstanding requirement for any and all languages is that they have to have an ISO-639-3 code and, that they are a language not a macro language.

There is no such thing as they are a resources of world's languages, people are the resources and they only maintainer code, the unified codes that the world uses. Is there any confirmation of Luri Wikipedia yet?

Hoi,
Ethnologue is the maintainer of the ISO-639-3. As such they are an authority.

You're right, I can't trust a self verification too, but what do you expect me do to?, you can probably find a lot of trustable resources on the Internet, I my self can't even trust ethnologue, because I found unuseful information on it and I don't know where they come from, at least in Wikipedia, we have resources, I didn't expect that from you.

Wikipedia is in this not an authority. It has never been. Again, self certification does not work for me.. We have been hurt by that before.

Alright then, that's Northern Luri, fair enough, I didn't have any knowledge that there is a southern dialect of it and people of Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmadi, and Yasuj speak that, I only knew Lorestan, but per English wikipedia, they're dialects of Northern Luri which this wiki is written in.

Hoi,

Check this out ... http://www.ethnologue.com/subgroups/luri-0

It rather complicates things... By the way self certification is not a good idea.

Yes. 100%, as I live Iran and I know some parts of this language, it is definitely Luri. Mohammad Mogoei (User:Mogoeilor) the most active user of this project is from Lorestan so definitely he speaks in this language every day. In Iran it's called Luri, some people call it Lurish as the translation for English, per this the language should be called Northern Luri, but none of it dialects are called Luri, so I call it Luri too. I have also submitted and now accepted a ticket to CLDR to support this language. Other proposal of dialects of this language like Bakhtiari failed because of being a part of this language. Also they list of article I've just provided are the best of them as you can see there are no Persian words in them.

Do we have confirmation that it is indeed Luri ?

Hi,

I ask langcom members for approval of Luri Wikipedia,

here are some top articles I could list, but there are more of them

استیو جابز (Steve Jobs)

آلورت انیشتین (Albert Einstein)

کلمبیا (Colombia)

شهید چمران (Mostafa Chamran)

شایا عیلامی (List of rulers of Elam)

کارلوس فوئنتس (Carlos Fuentes)

Analysis shows that this project has enough users and most of mediawiki message has been translated.
