Someone needs to tell me WHY we should have a Wikipedia or Wikinews in these
kinds of languages.
Has no one heard of duplication of effort? Why put information in languages
that are only spoken or read out of curiosity?
I guess my opinion is that it would be an utterly pointless waste of time.
No one will go to the Latin Wikipedia. Why would they? They already have a
Wikipedia in their native tongue that is much better and much bigger.

Personally I am equal to found it or not but your argument may do
nothing but rage some people.

There are Old Greek speakers all over the world. But, there are no
native speakers of both; which is crucial for a new language edition
of a Wikimedia project. So, according to that, there will be no Latin
Wikinews nor Old Greek Wikipedia. (Or, if something is different,
someone from LangCom should say something.)
