Hello Gerard,
I don't really understand what you are implying.
But I can repeat why we ask for the deletion of mo.wikipedia (all of these are already proven in previous messages):
1. There is no community. Nobody on wikipedia is both interested in having it and able to contribute.
2. All content is copied from ro.wikipedia and transliterated. There are better, already tested ways of changing script, if someone wants it.
3. In the current status, mo.wikipedia is in fact a heaven for trolls of all sorts.
Of course, deletion needs not be permanent. As soon as the condition 1 becomes false (as soon as a community forms), the moldovan wikipedia can be re-created.
Yours, Jacky

The content that is currently on mo.wikipedia is
written in a language that
is not used any more in the Republic of Moldova.
It could be argued that
Moldovan is used by a minority in the territory of
Moldova (in private and
personal matters), and by a part of population
(mainly Moldovan schools) in
Transnistria. Please note that Cyrillic Moldovan
is not used on a large
scale (that is, generally speaking, you won't
encounter Moldovan Cyrillic
anywhere in Moldova). At least for Moldova, I can
assure you, as I am a
native Moldovan. As far as Transnistria is
concerned, I really doubt it.
Even the official presidential website http://www.president-pmr.org/doesn't contain any Cyrillic Moldovan content. ...
Hoi, Either the information is correct, and given that it is said to be information from the Romanian language Wikipedia it should be both correct and NPOV. If it is not correct or NPOV, /both/ the Romanian and the Moldovian language Wikipedia are to be considered problematic. All the rest is very much politics, posturing and intransigence.
I am sure that this continued existence is best ignored. Consider you are either a party to this dispute or you could not care less. When the argument is that the mo wikipedia is occupied by trolls, remember they thrive by getting attention.
