Sorry for being late w.r.t the "deadline", but there are a lot of mails here recently! ;) A user wrote on the request page that "Sardinian Wikipedia invites the user to write in Campidanese dialect, it is just written in the section Iscrie in Sardu (Write in Sardinian). The new wiki is not really necessary." Maybe we should first find out how the situation on Sardinian Wikipedia (sc.wp) really is, especially since interest in contributing to a separate project has been very low: https://tools.wmflabs.org/meta/catanalysis/index.php?cat=0&title=wp/sro… 2017-01-20 14:09 GMT+01:00 Milos Rancic <millosh(a)gmail.com>om>: _______________________________________________ Langcom mailing list Langcom(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/langcom

Hey, Luca, may you (or somebody else from WM IT) find for us an Italian linguist specialized in Romance language and able to give us recommendations in relation to the Campidanese Sardinian (and other Italian languages)?

We obviously need the input of an expert here. And I am sure it shouldn't be hard to find an expert in romance languages (BTW, Sardinian is pretty mainstream in the sense that even de Saussure discusses it shortly). Any idea? The tricky issue with standard Romance languages of Italy is that they could be pretty different, no matter how close they are geographically.
