Wikisource Wawa https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia.org%2Fwiki%2FRequests_for_new_languages%2FWikisource_Wawa&data=02%7C01%7C%7Ceb8df8bcfbd447a8071b08d57d56daef%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636552734343621087&sdata=vMQNB098106mvCn0Rzb0bZAqUcHmABVUFwjQZfVSq2k%3D&reserved=0: I'd actually like some advice on this one. (I suspect that this request was created because of the language's "unique" langcode—www—though at the time Milos proposed that it would be encoded with its proposed ISO 639–6 code, "wxwa", for technical reasons.)
There is no evidence that anyone ever added any content for this in multilingual Wikisource, and the request page expresses doubt that there are many published, public-domain works in Wawa to publish here. On the other hand, this request is for Wikisource, and there's no reason that if someone has even one eligible work, it can't live on multilingual Wikisource forever anyway. Thoughts: Mark eligible? Close as stale? I just don't really want to leave it as "on hold" because it is so old.
Stale.
