I wrote a quick explantation why it's almost impossible to make a new wiki now, in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210752#5167695
One problem is that this part of the codebase doesn't have a clear maintainer/owner. That needs to be fixed.

Hi,
The Hindi Wikisource is blocked by some technical problems with no resolution expected shortly. The last comment in the ticket is:
The issue still exists and it's impossible to make new wikis without lots of bandage and hacks. I'm doing this in volunteer capacity and I don't
have
time to do it anymore :(
The ticket was opened on March 13th. The community is actively waiting. Some workshops are planned, but postponed because of this issue. So this task should be given to some developer from WMF.
Based on the quoted comment and date, I'm guessing the task in question is https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T218155.
FYI: I don't know any details about new wiki creation, I'm just posting the task link in the hope it will help people who do to find your task.
