Good day James, This is a good initiative ! For the templates, they need to be created on the Incubator for that Wiki, with the title Template:Wp/language_code/Template_name. After that you can use it as any other templates on other Wikis, but you need to remember to include the prefix "Wp/language_code". I guess by your question about dari being recognized as an official language, you mean the creation of the Wikipedia in Dari with its own subdomain? If it is the case, you need to go on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages . Note that two of the requirements for approval for the creation is to have an "active" community on the project in the Incubator and that most of the main MediaWiki messages need to be translated on Translatewiki. If you have further question, I guess you could ask the Language Committee. JP Beland 2012/10/5, James Heilman <jmh649(a)gmail.com>om>:
