I am passing through the requests and the first one is the request for Wikipedia in Assyrian Neo-Aramaic [1].

The situation is a kind of complex, but I see no reason not to verify the language itself [2] as eligible, as it should be done with possible request for Chaldean Neo-Aramaic [3].

Syriac language [4] -- and we have a Wikipedia in that language [5], encoded as the group of Aramaic languages [6] -- has been split around 1st century AD, meaning that the differences between them are likely to be comparable with the difference between Romance languages. It also includes the languages that are not Assyrian nor Chaldean Neo-Aramaic.

Anyway, this is just eligibility verification, not the approval of the project. If there is a real interest in creation of a separate Wikipedia, we will be able to decide about practical implications at that point of time.
