Arguments in favour[edit]

  • Independent data storage will be useful for the Sakha culture preservation for the future generations.--HalanTul 01:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Free source texts on Sakha language should be available for everybody who is interested in development of Sakha nation. MaxiMaxiMax 06:09, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note that the interface for Sakha is localized and we hope that the final decision on Sakha Wp will be taken in a few days, the Wp project fulfils all the requirements.--Yaroslav Blanter 07:57, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • 'Support'Support Now there are 216 articles--Andrijko Z. 16:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • 1. There is almost three years.
  • 2. This is the second draft of the language (the first - Wikipedia). Translated Extensions used by Wikimedia - 85,94%, Extensions used by Wikimedia-Main = 99.72%
  • 3. There is a demand for texts in the language of the Sakha and the people who can place the text in the draft. --HalanTul 07:33, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Arguments against[edit]

  • There is no active test project. Please create a test project on the incubatorwiki and keep it active. --Thogo (talk) 08:29, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    That's actually the question. I believe there is not a single Wikisource project in the incubator, they all start at the Wikisource. Correct me if I am wrong.--Yaroslav Blanter 12:46, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    You need to create it at oldwikisource: --OosWesThoesBes 14:11, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    But it is created at oldwikisource: [2]!--Yaroslav Blanter 07:58, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, you've got 14 pages, but there's hardly any activity! last month week: 0 edits! It's still not an active project, unfortunately :( --OosWesThoesBes 16:02, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Around 70 pages at this time. Keep going! John Vandenberg 11:43, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    216 now--Andrijko Z. 16:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
