I'm in favor, in principle, just like for any other language that is otherwise valid according to the usual policy. Political challenges must not get in the way. There are practical challenges, such as the yet-unresolved question of the Tunisian orthography - Latin or Arabic. There will probably be questions of this kind again, which will be hard for us to resolve, but that's a different issue. -- Amir Elisha Aharoni · אָמִיר אֱלִישָׁע אַהֲרוֹנִי http://aharoni.wordpress.com ‪“We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace.” – T.

Hoi, At the time we accepted Egyptian, there was quite some ruckus because it was considered politically incorrect to accept this. Now that we have a request for "Algerian Arabic", it is prudent to ask what our position is. I am all in favour by the way..

Hoi, No it cannot because you cannot convert Arabic into the La script. Thanks, GerardM On 31 July 2015 at 13:36, gfb hjjhjh <c933103(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Can't it use something like the one currently used by Serbocroatian wikipedia? 2015年7月31日下午7:20於 "Amir E. Aharoni" <amir.aharoni(a)mail.huji.ac.xn--il>:-p36m4800b

I agree that Algerian Arabic is eligible, whatever technical difficulties it may have. Antony Am 2015-07-31 um 13:20 schrieb Amir E. Aharoni:
