To have two different Wikipedias is a solution acceptable for all. NPOV is about content
of the articles and not the language.

Hoi,
By using terminology like "Soviet-orthography" you are part of the problem.
By excusing yourself in such a way you are not part of a solution. Having
two Belarusian Wikipedia is a blemish on both projects, how can you pretend
to have a NPOV resource when you are so much at each others throat ?
Thanks,
GerardM

The 2005 paper bases on pre-reformed orthography used in emigrant
communities and among intelligentsiya. It sums it up and standartises it.
Soviet-orthography wikipedians refused to compromise, so there will be two
Belarusian wikipedias :(

Hoi,
The names you suggest are not what I would consider good proposals. Given
that this orthography is based on a paper in 2005 it hardly qualifies as
classic.
Thanks,
Gerard

By the way, when will the wikipedia prefix for Classical Belarusian
changed to something reasonable from the temporary "be-x-old"? A good
proposal was "be-classic", "be-class" or similar.

Doing interwiki links to be-x-old: is now
possible; however, both
wikipedias now have "Беларуская" as the name for the language. I think
there should be an extra specification to distinguish the two, just
like nb: does not have 'Norsk' any more, but is called 'Norsk
(bokmål)'.
Does anyone who knows Belarus have good idea for the separate names?
My own guess does not get further than a translation of "Belarussian
(official)" for be:
be-x-old should be named like "Беларуская (тарашкевіца)"
