it was very unfair pace to remove Belarusian Wikipedia to the domain
be-x-old, because
1) it is the result of 3yrs volunteers work. it would be hard task to
change interwikis, to renew medias
2) Belarusian Wikipedia isn't written in old grammar. both grammars are
allowed to use in that variant of wikipedia.
the difference between grammars is less than between American and British
English
3) creators of wikipedia only in official belarusian grammar have insisted
on getting three-letters ISO-code domain bel.wp.org, leaving two-letters
ISO-code for Belarusian wikipedia. Belarusian language is one.
so, i strongly reccomend:
- to move Belarusian Wikipedia back to be.wikipedia.org
- to give for belarusian wikipedia in official grammar domain
bel.wikipedia.org and move it there
waiting for your kind reply
