By far, the oldest remaining unaddressed Requests for new languages on the Meta RFL page are those of Wikipedia Balochi [macrolanguage] and Wikipedia Eastern Balochi, both of which date to the summer of 2010. In addition to those two requests, there is an RFL for Southern Balochi, marked "eligible" by Gerard in 2008, and an RFL for Western Balochi, open and unaddressed since 2014.
At some point, Satdeep was looking into these. But I think the first question is this:
* Are these languages mutually intelligible? In particular, are they mutually intelligible in writing?
Can someone at least help me get an answer to that question? I have the sense from the English Wikipedia article Balochi languagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balochi_language—the one article covers all—that they are. But that's just a sense; it's not proof. The answer to that question will dictate the next steps to take.
