I'd like to hear from Étienne first but if nothing otherwise suggests an issue. I think we should proceed with SWAT on Monday.
I'll talk to MJL tonight about whether they want CaptialLinkOverrides.
Thanks, Samuel

Hi,
I would like to point your attention to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T247172 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T247172. To me, this seems like a bypassing of the LangCom.
What do you all think?

I think I agree with letting them have the namespace absent any technical barrier that would make this disruptive to the Wikipedia project itself.
In favour:
- I don't think we should be creating new projects only to find
they're abandoned few months after creation, leaving the bulk of maintenance to global sysops and stewards; because LangCom won't close them afterwards (inactivity is no longer a valid reason to lock a project). We already have enough of those in that shape.
- It's also easier to monitor one wiki rather than two, and if
sco.wiktionary is not and has not been able to get out of the Incubator (the Meta-Wiki request dates from 2007) due to lack of continuous activity or some other criterion there's no point in creating a separate project as it'll likely become abandoned or inactive.
- Nothing makes me think at this stage that the communities of
sco.wikipedia and sco.wiktionary would be different either, as such I'm not sure we should be splitting them in two different sites.
- We also have the precedent of als.* and mo.* getting merged not so
long ago <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T169450 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T169450>.
- I also think we can set `$wgCapitalLinkOverrides` as true just for
the Define namespace right?
On the other hand and unless I am mistaken, they won't be able to add interwikis via Wikidata to words in the Define namespace. You can't add an interwiki to the Wiktionary section of a Wikidata item if the page is not hosted on a Wiktionary. That said, I think that'd be a minor inconvenience.
Just my two cents.
Best regards.
