Here's the newest iteration of the request <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Middle…
which I take it is obviously getting rejected.
At this opportunity, I wonder whether we should implement some limitation
(e.g. via Titleblacklist) against creating request no. 2, 3, 4, 5 without
discussing it with Langcom first. It's a bit pointless to reject requests
over and over again, just because people don't accept the policy and create
a new one. Meanwhile, if for example a language was previously rejected but
has now been recognized in ISO 639-3, that can be easily signalled and a
new request created.
