Incubator:Requests for starting a test
If you are unsure whether your language is valid to be hosted here or have its own subdomain, you can ask here for advice.
Instructions [view]
- Be sure you have a user account here at Incubator.
- How to request? Just say which language and which project (Wikipedia, Wiktionary, ...) and give a link to a Wikipedia article or another webpage with some information.
- We need this to know the ISO 639 language code. If you already know the language code, please provide it.
- If that language doesn't already have an existing wiki in another Wikimedia project, please provide a translation for the phrase "Main Page" in that language.
- Add a new request
- And then? Someone will say whether you are allowed to start a test, and if so, he will give a link where you need to start your test.
- People who are either administrators and/or familiar with Incubator/LangCom policies may handle requests.

your reason here. --ori (talk) 22:15, 12 April 2025 (UTC) I will like to start a test language in Idoma Language Wikipedia. Idoma Language is one of the many languages in Nigeria with little or no online presence, I will like to revitalize idoma Language on Wikipedia to avoid it from going into extinction in the coming years. we have group of volunteers that are ready to keep it active from its Incubator time till when it's finally approved
- It seems there is no problem with your request. I'd recommend you create a userpage with a Babel language proficiency template (check mine for an example). If you don't have any proficiency in the language you shouldn't proceed further, but if you do, you can go to the Manual to start your test-wiki. Do not forget to issue a request for a new language if you want your wiki to have its own independent website!
Good luck and best regards — Garcez (talk) 20:30, 13 April 2025 (UTC)
