If we're talking about Patois (ISO code jam), then it's definitely a valid language. I vote for accepting it.
Looking at the analysis of its wikipedia pages on the incubator [1], the last three months have seen 3+ editors with tons of activity. The most used core messages have all been translated. [2]
I'm contacting a good friend of mine whose mother is a Patois speaker, just to see whether he can recommend a scholar for verifying content being actually written in Patois.
So, I hope that jam.wikipedia.org - which currently still gives an error message - will be a reality soon!
Best, Oliver

Hoi, So we can at least move forward and accept it as a valid language? How about moving on from that?? Thanks, GerardM
