[Wikipedia-l] Setting up a Scots Wikipedia

I'd like to request that a Scots language Wikipedia be set up.  There are estimated to be around 1.6 million Scots speakers together with at least another 2 million Scots who passively understand the language to some extent.  This must make it one of the largest European languages for which we do not have a Wiki. The 3 letter language code for Scots is sco so the URL should be http://sco.wikipedia.org/ since there is no two letter code. I am a native speaker and am more than willing to start the necessary translation and configuration work once the initial site has been created.
 
Cheers
