Hi,
Any objection to marking Tigre (ISO 639: tig) as eligible? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Tigre
The language is living and has a little under one million speakers. It's distinct, too—though related to Tigrinya and more remotely to Amharic, I haven't seen anyone saying that it's "the same" as Tigrinya.
It has been very active in translatewiki recently, and quite active in the Incubator, too.
