I am cleaning Requests for new languages [1] at Meta. Some of the requests are clearly out of the Language committee scope, and they need wider discussion for concluding them.
One of such requests is for multilingual Wikinews [2]. Please, discuss here (at foundation-l; I am sending this message to wikinews-l to poke those who are not at foundation-l) or on wiki at the page [2].

The request has been rejected as invalid. The explanation for rejection is below:
According to the Language proposal policy, Language committee may approve just a project which intends to be written in one language. Thus, this proposal is invalid. If you want to create multilingual Wikinews, please create a page Multilingual Wikinews and start discussion about the idea at wikinews-l. --Millosh 06:16, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
