Jay, unfortunately chances are there will be no Ladino or Chinook Jargon Wikipedias until such time as they reach a level of support similar to that enjoyed by the Scots Wikipedia proposal or the Cebuano Wikipedia proposal.

I have been asked to advocate for the creation of a Zlatiborian Wikipedia.
[...] Pronunciation of words is different (different stresses, accent, etc.), but so is between people from Belgrade and people from Novi Sad, or New York and San Francisco (when I first went to New York, I couldn't understand anything, but they still spoke English and after a few hours, I got a hold of it).[...]
Hi Dejan et al., It seems that the differences in dialects is even more minor than that between Castillian and Mexican varieties of Spanish, and yet http://es.wikipedia.org isn't divided into different spellings. I guess what would do it for me would be if the language were given it's own ISO tag. For example, Ladino is recognized as a separate language from Castilian Spanish even though it derives from it, but Andalusian is not, even though the accent and pronunciation differs from Standard (Castilian) Spanish. Ladino has its own ISO tag but Andalusian does not.
BTW it's time we set up the sub-domains for Ladino isn't it ;-) hint, hint!
