I know, I know. That's the difference between Dinka which has a language
association which is actively behind efforts to produce wikipedia
content, and Wolaytta which *also* has a language development
association who, by contrast, does not seem to know about wikipedia. I
have contacted them on FB ... will see what happens ...

Hoi,
There is no problem with eligibility. It is the other stuff that is
needed to get us to the phase for a new Wikipedia.

I've made the request [1] for a wikipedia in Wolaytta [2]
eligible. It's an Omotic language spoken by 1.7 million people in
Ethiopia [3]. Unfortunately, the request was made anonymously, and
there only is a single article presumably written in the language
on incubator, almost five years ago [4].
