Dear all,
Tulu Wikipedia (tcy) is now on incubator. What are the issues that are obstacles in making it live. I would be speaking to some of the active Tulu Wikipedians today. I will convey your responses there.
Thank you,
Hi!
In translatewiki.net the translation of the most-used messages is nearly complete: https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translate?filter=!translated&acti...
It should take just five minutes to make it 100%.
The activity in the incubator is not bad: https://tools.wmflabs.org/meta/catanalysis/index.php?cat=0&title=Wp/tcy&...
It went down a bit in the last couple of months, and it looks like there's one user who is down the bulk of the work, and it should it be distributed over more people.
I also went over a sample of current incubator pages, and they seem to be OK—not one-line stubs, but rather complete articles.
That said, was there ever a check of the incubator texts by a third-party expert? I am not aware of one.
So the action item for the volunteers is to continue writing MORE in the incubator, and the action item for the Language committee is to get an expert evaluation (unless one was done already and I forgot it).

Yes, It seems there is a good activity. I wanted to remind that this is Tulu written in Kannada script. The Tulu script is not encoded to Unicode yet. I am aware of the draft encoding proposal by Michael Everson - www.evertype.com/standards/iso10646/pdf/tulu.pdf
My understanding is, the community want it in Kannada script, since Tulu script is uncommon in usage. There are also a few comments about this at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Tulu
So there need to be discussion about the language code.
Hi,
There was a discussion on Tulu Wikipedia's village pump on what script to be used, Kannada has got all the votes : Link to discussion here https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/tcy/%E0%B2%B5%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%95%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AA%E0%B3%80%E0%B2%A1%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AF:%E0%B2%9A%E0%B2%BE%E0%B2%B5%E0%B2%A1%E0%B2%BF#.E0.B2.A4.E0.B3.81.E0.B2.B3.E0.B3.81_.E0.B2.B5.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.95.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.AA.E0.B3.80.E0.B2.A1.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.AF.E0.B3.8A.E0.B2.97.E0.B3.8D_.E0.B2.95.E0.B2.A8.E0.B3.8D.E0.B2.A8.E0.B2.A1_.E0.B2.B2.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.AA.E0.B2.BF Also, the discussion to have tcy.wikipedia.org as the url and was voted with 21 positive votes and no negative vote. Please check here. https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/tcy/%E0%B2%B5%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%95%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AA%E0%B3%80%E0%B2%A1%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AF:%E0%B2%9A%E0%B2%BE%E0%B2%B5%E0%B2%A1%E0%B2%BF#.E0.B2.A4.E0.B3.81.E0.B2.B3.E0.B3.81_.E0.B2.B5.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.95.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.AA.E0.B3.80.E0.B2.A1.E0.B2.BF.E0.B2.AF.E0.B3.8A.E0.B2.97.E0.B3.81_.E0.B2.95.E0.B3.8B.E0.B2.A1.E0.B3.8D
Now what remains is probably an expert check.
Any more areas of improvement?
