Wikidatans,It's exciting that the Hungarian Wikipedia folks will be first to deploy in Wikidata - congratulations!World University and School also plans to deploy in Wikidata, and in all 3,000-8,000 languages, each a wiki, subject page / school, to begin. WUaS bases this range on "The Ethnologue" - http://www.ethnologue.com/ - which now says they have 6,909 languages, whereas Wikipedia says they have 7,358 languages - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnologue. WUaS also plans to facilitate the development of an universal translator - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Universal_Translator - building on Google Translate and others.Wikipedia is now in 285 languages, as of August 2012 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Wikipedia.Hungarian Wikipedia rocks!Cheers,ScottOn Wed, Jul 25, 2012 at 4:51 AM, Lydia Pintscher <lydia.pintscher@wikimedia.de> wrote:
Heya folks
This hasn't made it to this list yet sorry. The Hungarian Wikipedia
community has stepped up to be the first one to use Wikidata in
production once we're ready to deploy the code. They rock :D
We're keeping track of the deployment plans here:

Result: after some explanations we have 26 supporters in addition to 3
initiators/starters, and no opposers. (22 of them in the first 24 hours.)
As I wrote earlier, this is an enthusiastic community. So huwiki is looking
forward to test Wikidata. :-) Let's do it!
