I am an admin on en:, but I hardly ever read this mailing list, and only subscribed today. The reason I subscribed is because I am really quite upset and fed up about the ridiculous treatment Holopedia@Wikipedia received -- the free encyclopedia in the Taiwanese language "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwanese_%28linguistics%29".
I came up with the idea of Holopedia "http://weblog.holopedia.org/archives/holopedia.jpg".
The Most Serene Fellows Pektiong and Henry "http://www.digitas.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/wiki/ken/ThoanKhe" submitted an application to create Holopedia@Wikipedia. The intention was to prevent forking -- we could easily have run MediaWiki somewhere else (and indeed we did, as a means of testing -- but to prevent forking, I will not let you know where we ran it).
We requested the hostname 'zh-min-nan', per RFC 3066 "http://www.iana.org/assignments/lang-tags/zh-min-nan". I registered the tag, so I should know. Some silly person did not honour our request, but created a syncretic monster 'zh-cfr' without consulting the community (to prevent forking (and to prevent giving it any authority), I will not let you know where the letters CFR came from). Then, some (other) silly person dictated 'minnan'. Then, yet some other person suggested the meaningless 'poj'.
Please honour our original, simple request and give us "http://zh-min-nan.wikipedia.org/". We are holding back from editing at the moment because we still want to prevent forking. All the silly manoeuvre described above only works against the non-forking -- a fundamental value of Wikipedia. Please, CHANGE IT NOW to zh-min-nan! CHANGE IT NOW! CHANGE IT NOW! Let's waste no more time. Thank you very much.
CHANGE IT NOW! CHANGE IT NOW! CHANGE IT NOW to zh-min-nan! Have you changed it?
(Sorry for crossposting, but I found soon after sending to mediawiki-l@Wikimedia.org that I should have sent it here.)
