SPQRobin is already working on a extension that will point
xxx.wikipedia.org to the right place on Incubator. The first version
is already deployed and he showed me the new version on WikiMania.
I'm not sure how long it will take, when wmf staff will help him out
it will take less time. But a beter version is being worked on.

Maybe a new system of "incubation" would be
helpful. For example, one
could start the requested wikis on their future domain
(
xxx.wikipedia.org /
xxx.wiktionary.org etc.pp.) right from the
request, with at least two voluntary experienced supervisors on each
(one can supervise more than one of these of course) who get sysop and
crat rights and stay there as long as it takes to get the approval of
LangCom for an independent wiki (that is, after translating the most
important parts of the MW software and that stuff). With email
notification, the community of the test project can easily reach the
supervisors and they of course should be in the wiki on a daily basis
to look that everything is ok there. In the best case, they could try
to attract more native speakers of the language to work there. Then a
closing request for a wiki that became inactive would just be a
request for supervision of that wiki. That means, the wiki stays where
it is, but gets two supervisors who take on the administrative tasks
and start some promotion maybe. Well, it's just an idea.
