Requests for new languages/Wikisource Burmese
| submitted | verification | final decision |

|
This proposal has been approved. The Board of Trustees and language committee have deemed that there is sufficient grounds and community to create the new language project. A committee member provided the following comment: Until a separate Wikisource is created, please add texts at oldwikisource:Main Page/မြန်မာဘာသာ. Antony D. Green (talk) 22:24, 21 April 2017 (UTC) Approved on 2024-03-27, phabricator:T361085. --MF-W 09:16, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

- The community needs to develop an active test project; it must remain active until approval (automated statistics). It is generally considered active if the analysis lists at least three active, not-grayed-out editors listed in the sections for the previous few months.
- The community needs to complete required MediaWiki interface translations in that language (about localization, translatewiki, check completion).
- The community needs to discuss and complete the settings table below:
| What | Value | Example / Explanation |
|---|
| Proposal | ||
|---|---|---|
| Language code | my (SIL, Glottolog) | A valid ISO 639-1 or 639-3 language code, like "fr", "de", "nso", ... |
| Language name | Burmese | Language name in English |
| Language name | မြန်မာဘာသာ | Language name in your language. This will appear in the language list on Special:Preferences, in the interwiki sidebar on other wikis, ... |
| Language Wikidata item | Q9228 - item has currently the following values:
|
Item about the language at Wikidata. It would normally include the Wikimedia language code, name of the language, etc. Please complete at Wikidata if needed. |
| Directionality | LTR | Is the language written from left to right (LTR) or from right to left (RTL)? |
| Site URL | my.wikisource.org | langcode.wikiproject.org |
| Settings | ||
|---|---|---|
| Project name | ဝီကီရင်းမြစ် | "Wikisource" in your language |
| Project namespace | ဝီကီရင်းမြစ် | usually the same as the project name |
| Project talk namespace | ဝီကီရင်းမြစ်_ဆွေးနွေးချက် | "Wikisource talk" (the discussion namespace of the project namespace) |
| Enable uploads | no | Default is "no". Preferably, files should be uploaded to Commons. If you want, you can enable local file uploading, either by any user ("yes") or by administrators only ("admin").
Notes: (1) This setting can be changed afterwards. The setting can only be "yes" or "admin" at approval if the test creates an Exemption Doctrine Policy (EDP) first. (2) Files on Commons can be used on all Wikis. (3) Uploading fair-use images is not allowed on Commons (more info). (4) Localisation to your language may be insufficient on Commons. |
| Optional settings | ||
| Project logo | File:Wikisource-logo-my.svg | This needs to be an SVG image (instructions for logo creation). |
| Default project timezone | Asia/Yangon | "Continent/City", e.g. "Europe/Brussels" or "America/Mexico City" (see list of valid timezones) |
| Additional namespaces | "စာရေးသူ" (Author), "စာရေးသူ ဆွေးနွေးချက်" (Author talk), "စာမျက်နှာ" (Page), "စာမျက်နှာ ဆွေးနွေးချက်" (Page talk), "အညွှန်း" (Index), "အညွှန်း ဆွေးနွေးချက်" (Index talk), "မုခ်ဝ" (Portal), "မုခ်ဝ ဆွေးနွေးချက်" (Portal talk), "ဘာသာပြန်" (Translation), "ဘာသာပြန် ဆွေးနွေးချက်" (Translation talk) | For example, a Wikisource would need "Page", "Page talk", "Index", "Index talk", "Author", "Author talk". |
| Additional settings | Anything else that should be set | |
| Once settings are finalized, a committee member will submit a Phabricator task requesting creation of the wiki. (This will include everything automatically, except the additional namespaces/settings.) After the task is created, it should be linked to in a comment under "final decision" above. | ||
Proposal
[edit]Discussion
[edit]Hello. "Enable uploads = admin" has been chosen. Could you indicate where the Exemption Doctrine policy is to be found (see the table for more information)? --MF-W 13:45, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Tejinda, Ninjastrikers and Team.blizzard any ideas on this question which affects the local uploading function? Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 00:36, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Liuxinyu970226, @MF-Warburg; The local upload can be disable since we are not prepare EDP for Wikisource yet. We will discuss it later. Thanks! Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 14:32, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- User:Ninjastrikers, thank you for your response. I have now requested the creation of the wiki :) --MF-W 09:19, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- @MF-Warburg By the way, there's a question after 3 months of my.wikisource launched: s:my:ဆွေးနွေးချက်:ဗဟိုစာမျက်နှာ Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 01:32, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- @MF-Warburg, The import process is not started yet after five months of creation. Is there any issue? Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 04:10, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- There is no issue except that this has somehow been forgotten. --MF-W 19:47, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- User:Ninjastrikers: I am happy to report that the pages have finally been imported. The list of pages exported and imported is at oldwikisource:User:MF-Warburg#pages_exported_to_my.wikisource (if you look closely at the import log, summary "59/86" is missing, but the pages wrongly got the summary 58/86). I also imported some templates from www.wikisource, but more might be needed. Please let me know if you want anything else imported. The imported main page is still at s:my:Main Page/မြန်မာဘာသာ and needs sorting out. --MF-W 18:09, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- @MF-Warburg: Thank you for the update! I appreciate your hard work in importing the pages and templates. If I have any other import requests, I'll be sure to let you know. For the main page, should I move s:my:Main Page/မြန်မာဘာသာ to s:my:ဗဟိုစာမျက်နှာ? And can we start editing at new site? Thanks again for your efforts in managing this transition. Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 03:04, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Ninjastrikers, yes, you can start editing. You can move the main page in the way described, or adjust the name of the page considered to be the mainpage via s:my:MediaWiki:mainpage. -- MF-W 11:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- @MF-Warburg: Please hold the deletion of pages from oldwikisource. Some of the pages from "Page:" namespace are still missing as they are not categorized in oldwikisource:Category:မြန်မာဘာသာ. (like pages from oldwikisource:Index:နန္ဒီသေနပျို့.pdf, oldwikisource:Index:ရွှေဘုံနိဒါန်း.pdf, oldwikisource:Index:မဟာဂီတပေါင်းချုပ်ကြီး.pdf, etc.) Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 08:39, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Ninjastrikers I am not deleting any pages on OldWS (I am not an administrator there), and I have also not yet requested any deletions. Can you give me a list of the missing pages? --MF-W 13:44, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- @MF-Warburg: I add the missing pages to oldwikisource:Category:To import to mywikisource. Please import all the pages within the category. Thank you! Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 05:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Ninjastrikers done! MF-W 22:06, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
