Dear Community members,

FYI I have sent the mail below on 24 Jan to the language committee for the approval of Odia WikiQuote. The test project approval criteria is fine. But the reason of the project being hold is: Based on interaction of some employee of Redhat Wikimedia foundation Language committee has heard that the spelling of Wikipedia (ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ) is incorrect. Because of that the incubator project is not being approved. Language committee has not replied back my or informed the community the reason of this. So, I request you all to give your suggestion with regard to this. According to Wikipedia policy suggestions regarding any major changes are never taken from a non-Wikipedian. In this case a group linguist can only give a view and t your info the person who has informed the language committee about the spelling error is not one. So, as a community member I would request you to discuss it here in this thread and take this to further approval.

I don't see any problem with  Wikipedia (ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ). This is the most suitable spelling we have in Odia. And this is a English name which we are writing in Odia. So there should not be any issue. Who is saying wrong spelling and why Language committee is nurturing I don't understand ??

[...]

While I am certainly no Oriya pandita, personally, I would spell it as ୱିକିପିଡିଆ . I understand from others who are more well-versed in Oriya than me that the current spelling, ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ is acceptable. To me, ଉଇ instead of ୱି seems fine, but ଡ଼ instead of ଡ seems strange: That is not how it is pronounced in English.

As a fun experiment, I did a quick lookup on a similar word ("wicket") in three common Odia news papers :) Two of them, Samaja [0] and Sambada [1] write it as ୱିକେଟ while Dharitri [2] writes it as ଉଇକେଟ. ୱିକି seems to be the right counterpart for "wiki" in sense of pronunciation.

Thanks, Arun -- [0] http://samajaepaper.com/epaper/pdf/2012/01/23/20120123a_015101003.jpg or http://samajaepaper.com/epaper/pdf/2012/01/23/20120123a_015101003.pdf [1] http://sambadepaper.com/Details.aspx?id=15985&boxid=7313718 [2] http://www.dharitri.com/epaper/230112/p20.htm

ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ ବନାନରେ ମୋର ସମ୍ମତି ।

Language committee has not replied back my or informed the community the reason of this.

Even though language committee did not respond officially on this, Myself and Gerard had talked to Subhashish. If the Odia community is very sure about the orthography used, I don't see any issue. But during our Red Hat visit we came to know that it is not just one word, but there are some other words also in question. Subhashish explained me the issue in detail(he said he explained this to Gerard too), as I learned it is something debatable, but wiki community has no conflict on this. But langcomm wanted a third opinion and langcom usually get opinion on these issues from academic experts. I myself tried to get in touch with 3-4 people by email, but failed to get any reply. Subhashish also suggested some contacts, but they also did not respond so far. As a langcom policy we cannot reveal to whom we are trying to contact for academic opinion(language being very sensitive).

I will talk to langcom members again on this.
