If you would like a wiki to be created on the beta, request it. I don't know why peter thought it was a good idea to create Wikipedias in every language, that wasn't the initial plan. It even says right on the front page:
"The list of all projects now available can be listed below, in case you want to set up another wmf wiki, please request it here"
Instead of complaining, ask first. Is it that hard?

Dear all,
I was the [[:m:User:555]], mainly active on the last years of my volunteers actions on Wikimedia Commons and Wikisource. I've left the Wikimedia projects mainly because the lack of energy from my side to keep trying to get free time to work in projects fully neglected by the Wikimedia staff, developers team and some volunteers in the core of the Foundaction acts.
A friend told me about the http://labs.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/ . I've checked http://labs.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:SiteMatrixand. .. surprise! no Wikisource wikis with blue color links! I asked myself random things about the [[bug:21653]] lasted for 26 months until gets PARTIALLY fixed and decided to check some 'Recent changes' pages and found this:
http://pt.wikisource.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=233269
Come on guys! What is the point to run a bot spamming on all wikis if the tests are only to the Wikipedias? Attempt of a 'politically correct' action to these worse guys from others projects get's 'socially included'? Like in the real life, those worse guys aren't in need of assistencialism [1] actions...
Well, I don't expect any change on the Wikipediocentric actions in short, medium or long time (in fact the Foundation and some local chapters are trying to make things for the Wikimedia Commons project, but only because that project is the central media source for Wikipedias), this was only a mutter.
Despite my apparently hatred on this message, I really hope that the 3-4 extensions only enabled on Wikisources wikis don't get's any aditional bugs than the current ones in the new version of MediaWiki in the same intensity that your guys hopes that focusing in a project that only describes the knowledge in an encyclopedic way fully meets the http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Mission_statement
[1] - wow, a concept from social sciences yet not defined neither on en.wikpedia or en.wiktionary? O_O
As on all of my previous messages, sorry for my limited English skills. Best regards,
