Thank you for this thankless clerical work, Antony.

OK, thanks. While we're about it, there are several other pending requests for Wikisources that I would like to take care of:
Old Norwegian [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Old_Norwegian] should be rejected. It has no code and is just a dialect of Old Norse. Texts could be listed either at Norwegian Wikisource or in the Old Norse section of Multilingual Wikisource [wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page/Norr%C5%93nt]
Kurdish [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Kurdish] is surely eligible.
Neapolitan [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Neapolitan] should be eligible. The only argument against it is that Italian Wikisource already hosts pages in Neapolitan [it.wikisource.org/wiki/Categoria:Testi_in_napoletano]; but the Neapolitan section of Multilingual Wikisource [wikisource.org/wiki/Category:Napulitano] has more texts, and the discussion suggests that Neapolitan editors would prefer their own Wikisource rather than contributing to Italian Wikisource.
Burmese (Myanmar) [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Myanmar] is surely eligible.
Zazaki [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Zazaki] is surely eligible; it has its own Wikipedia already [diq.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pela_Seri]
Lojban [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Lojban] is surely eligible; it has its own Wikipedia already [jbo.wikipedia.org/wiki/uikipedi'as:ralju].
Manchu [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Manchu] seems to be eligible (the native speaker requirement being waived for Wikisources), though I'm not sure if we're technically able to host a Wikisource in a vertically written language yet.
Uzbek [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Uzbek] is surely eligible.
Western Panjabi [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Western_Punjabi] is surely eligible; it has its own Wikipedia already [pnb.wikipedia.org/wiki/پہلا_صفہ].
Pashto [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Pashto] is surely eligible.
Are there any objections to my rejecting Old Norwegian and marking eligible all of the others mentioned above, as well as Livvi-Karelian?

Yes. The language is a valid one.

We've had a request for a Wikisource in Livvi-Karelian [meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikisource_Livvi-Karelian]. Since there is already a Wikipedia in that language [olo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piäsivu] it's automatically eligible, isn't it?
