Feedback Request: Proposed Approval and Participation in Incubation Experiment

edit

Hello,

As part of an experiment proposed by the WMF Language and Product Localization team, which you can read about here, we have requested the Language Committee to consider your language project and assist in graduating it from the Incubator.

Through this experiment, we aim to understand the impact of modern wiki features on the editing activity of users compared to when they were in the Wikimedia Incubator. Read the hypothesis statement here. There are no specific expectations for participation from editors of the approved language other than to gather any concerns your community may have about being part of this experiment, about receiving approval at this stage, and whether you are open to continuing your community activities as usual over the next 3-4 months. Are there any concerns we should be aware of?

We would appreciate your response by September 30th. If we do not receive a response by this date, the wiki will not be considered for approval by the Language Committee. Please note that we are reaching out to other suitable wikis as well, and preference will be given to early responders. The ultimate decision regarding the inclusion of the project in the experiment will be made by the Language Committee. SSethi (WMF) (talk) 21:32, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Just to avoid any misunderstandings, if the wiki will not participate in this experiment, the Language Committee will of course be able to consider the approval of the wiki when the usual conditions are fulfilled. --MF-W {a, b} 19:22, 24 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I have been contributing for this project(wp/rki) almost 3 years. So far, I has helped edit more than five thousand. According to my opinion, the total number of articles so far (1,600) is already over. There are four to five editors who come in every month. This indicates that are in a ready state for approval for this project. I have been waiting for approval for a long time. Thank you very much for the opportunity to participate in this project(wp/rki). YaThaWinTha (talk) 06:10, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your support and interest in participating in the experiment! We aimed to include a wide range of languages in our pool, and after careful review, we decided not to select the Arkanese language for the experiment as it didn't fully meet our criteria compared to other languages. However, the good news is that the Language Committee is still considering proceeding with the approval process, as they find the language eligible. The committee will take the next steps, including content verification, and will follow up with you if additional information is needed. Please keep an eye on this page for any discussions and updates from the Language Committee. SSethi (WMF) (talk) 23:01, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
