Unfortunately it does not look like their is an active editing community at Dari and thus it would not be eligible. Hopefully one day.
Hoi, What you CAN do is make the request. The notion of a sufficiently large editing community is not part of the decision to consider eligibility. Eligibility indicates if it is worth to put effort in an incubator project. When a "language"is not considered to be eligible it will not gain a project. Thanks, Gerard

There is already an incubator project. Just wondering what it would take for it to become a full Wikipedia. For that I read that an active community was needed.

Hoi, My point is, without the eligibility there is no certainty that a project will eventually be accepted. I indicated earlier that Dari will need consideration. Consequently just making the request brings clarity. Thanks, Gerard

James, What he means, if I may add, is that you can put the request in to seek 'eligibility' before the project is ready to have its own Wikipedia, it is this mean to know if it's worth putting the effort in the Incubator or not. Like that you will know the language is different enough from another to justify having its own Wikipedia for example, which is the point which may require clarification for Dari.
The 'rules' to create a project in the Incubator are less restrictive, basically all it needs is for the language to be real, so having its own ISO code is mainly only what it takes. However, that doesn't mean it is 'eligible' for its own sub domain.
Hopefully, that brings you the pieces you were missing, JP

Ah thanks JP. Will need to try to figure out this process. Has anyone here gone through it and able to give me a hand?

I have not necessarily been through it as a requestor, but I have accompanied quite some requests being a Langcom member ;-)
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language_committee/Handbook_%28requesters%29... be fairly self-explanatory on how to create the request page. Creating a request is not really a dramatic thing, I have now created the Dari request (with only the basic info) on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Dari_Pe...)
