Hi everybody!
As most of you probably know there are quite a few requests for Wikipedias in new languages to be created. Many of them are still discussed controversially. Others are not but are unequivocally welcomed. Nevertheless, no new Wikipedias have been set up for about three months now and we might lose potential new contributors if we leave them on stand-by for too long.
The most clear-cut case seems to be the Neapolitan Wikipedia. Matter of fact, a large number of Wikipedians are supporting the idea, noboby opposes it and several native speakers are willing to contribute and waiting to get under way.
I know you guys are extremely busy. Could someone please find the time to take of this and install a new wiki for Neapolitan? I'd love to do this myself but unfortunatly can't.

Regards,
Arbeo

Is the doc on http://wp.wikidev.net/Add_a_language still correct ?
There is also request for two more languages on meta: * Waray-Waray (Samar-Leyte Visayan) * Ladino
Maybe request for language creation should be sent to noc@wikimedia.org or on bugzilla ? I am not sure what is the new way to do stuff (kate?)
