On a single day in November 2012, someone opened requests for five projects in Riograndenser Hunsrückisch Germanhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riograndenser_Hunsr%C3%BCckisch_German: Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikibooks, Wikinews, Wikiquote. In case you're not familiar with it, it's a fascinating language, and I encourage you to have a look at the article.
Ethnologue lists over three million speakers (though how much of that is really L1 at this point is certainly open to debate). The Wikipedia test has about 135 pages, and there's no reason not to mark it as eligible. The other tests were never created, so I am going to close the other requests as stale.
I plan to contact the person who created the requests by email—the user is only around sporadically at this point, probably in part because LangCom wasn't very responsive—and invite him to reactivate the test Wikipedia.
(Note: these were the only pending 2012 requests for Wikibooks and Wikinews.)

Hoi, The language has its ISO-639-3 code so it is clearly eligible. Thanks, GerardM
