Now that my attention has been drawn to that section, I wonder if that explains why the academic projects were not welcome and their contributions are being vandalized, almost systematically, at the Brazilian Wikipedia.
If you refer to any Brazilian native language edition of Wikipedia, may you specify?
If you refer to Brazilian Portuguese Wikipedia, Language committee still doesn't allow BCP 47 language tags. We are allowing just ISO 639-1 alpha-2 and ISO 639-3 alpha-3 language tags, which shouldn't be confused with ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes for countries.
If that's true, that means that someone has opened new project without following regular procedure. That's serious problem. May you, please, point to the project, so we could know if it is about abusing technical permissions or about some other, more serious issue?
If that's true, I would like to thank you to pointing to very serious problem inside of Wikimedia. I would also like to thank you for pointing how harmful is not following the rules in the sense of opening new projects.

Milos,
There not such thing as "brazilian Wikipédia". The wikipédia he is talking abut is pt.wikipedia.org. Why he call it "Brazilian" is better ask him. _____ *Béria Lima* http://wikimedia.pt/ (351) 925 171 484
