Hi all,
The first Indic language request I saw today was a request for Wikipedia Dorgi.[1]
Dogri is one of the 22 scheduled languages of India.[2] The Wikipedia article mentions that Dogri is written in both Devanagari and Perso-Arabic scripts. I personally have known Dogri to be written in Devanagari and certain books published by the Government of India have also used Devanagari script.[3]
The person who proposed the project has also used Devanagari script while writing the language name in the language.
Hence, I suggest marking this proposal eligible for a Dogri Wikipedia in Devanagari Language.

I agree, but may you give us your opinion in relation to the fact that Dogri has been split in Ethnologue [1] into "Dogri proper" [2] and Kangri [3]?
I think we should go with the "dgo" code, unless there is a strong reason to keep it under the "macrolanguage" code. (It is also quite possible that SIL/Ethnologue didn't have the best clue when approving the codes.)
BTW, that's why I've omitted Dogri during the first pass.

I agee, the code should be "dgo".

It should be Devanagari script, not language.
