Hi all,
I would like to propose the approval of the Sylheti Wikipedia (Wp/syl) [1]. The project has had satisfactory activity since at least December 2022, and notably one of the main contributors has stayed active since August 2018 (that's five years!) [2]. The localization is also good, with the most important messages having been translated as well as ongoing translation of the rest of MediaWiki core [3].
Since this will be the first Wikimedia project in this language, we will need verification for it.

Hello Jon,
I have checked the syl Wikipedia incubator project but the letters do not appear at all (formatting issue probably, I see only small squares). I do not know if it is only for me but if other colleagues have the same issue, then maybe it has to be solved before moving forward with the approval. Can anyone confirm?
Best regards,
Anass

Hello Jon and thank you for the clarification,
I will download the fonts and retest (I am sure it will work). But my question is: Do we expect that every person who will open this wiki needs to download the font? It does not seem sustainable. Or maybe some technical solution is done after the Wiki is approved?
Best regards,
Anass

The Universal Language Selector (ULS) can provide web fonts for it, so users don't have to download them. It is also common for wikis in poorly-supported scripts to have a notice either on the main page or in the sitenotice about how and where to get fonts for that language (indeed they already do that on top of the main page for the Sylheti Wikipedia).
