You mean you want to have all these in the same wikipedia? That would not be useful because very few people can read all these.

I have an idea: Let's just make a zh-whatever: for all the different things relating to Chinese that people want. They can mix Cantonese with Wu with Mandarin, some romanized, some using characters, they can add classical chinese, even jiaguwenzi (tortoise shell ancient characters), as well as zhuyin fuhao, and dungan (ie sichuan mandarin writtne in cyrillic basically), and we can also mix in English and Russian and Portuguese and Korean.
So what do you think?

Asia, it seems that the language which is the backbone of these

should also have a place.
So would this be created before or after a Cantonese wikipedia?
