Hallo,
Surprisingly, this just happened today: The be-x-old.wikipedia.org domain was renamed to be-tarask.wikipedia.org domain.
Be it known that renaming the domains of Wikimedia sites is not impossible any more!
There are some fallout bugs, but nothing disastrous, and everything should stabilize by the end of the week.
I hope to see the rest of the domains with the non-standard (or not-so-standard) codes to go away in the coming months - als -> gsw, zh-min-nan -> nan, and so on.
no -> nb might be a bit controversial with the community, but I do hope that it will be renamed as well.
FINALLY \o/

Please also request to rename az to azj.

Krenair and I are going to work on this over the next several months to resolve as many renamings as are still needed, and closing out any rejected requests. Basically, we just need to get in touch with each community on a case-by-case basis and make sure the consensus from so many years ago is still valid. The tricky part might be finding an English speaker in some of the non-Western languages, but I think we can figure it out. Next up is renaming WMEE's wiki et.wikimedia.org ~> ee.wikimedia.org . After that, we shall see.
Just today? I've seen the name change few days ago and edited english wikipedian article for be wikipedia accordingly.. 2015年9月9日 上午1:49於 "Amir E. Aharoni" amir.aharoni@mail.huji.ac.il寫道：
