Hoi,
The first requirement is to ask for a language that is recognised by the ISO-639-3. The code lus is indeed used by the Mizo language, you then make an entry at the Meta page request for new languages. As long as there is no request made, the Language Committee is not aware of people wanting to start a project for a language..

I checked and there is a request for the Lushai language with the lus code.. According to the documentation at Ethnologue this is a synonym for Mizo. I checked and it is possible to localise for this language at translatewiki.net.

To see all the latest messages at the incubator, you currently have to wait until the MediaWiki software is updated. In order to have the messages available as soon as possible, it is advised to install the LocalisationUpdate extension. This extension will make all the recent localisations available and thereby improve the usability for a language when new localisations have been entered.
Thanks,

Hi,

I'm Lalchhuansanga Pachuau, from Mizoram State of India. I want to start
Mizo Wikipedia (http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/lus). Now, I and my
friends start working on Khampat .COM (http://www.khampat.com), the Mizo
web-portal and we are planning to host an wiki encyclopedia (we called it
Wikipatdia) and hosting on http://wiki.khampat.com.

But, now we found out that there is a chance that you can host(?) Mizo
Wikipedia. So, we are contacting you for how to start it.

And, we want to ask these:
1. How many articles you need for us to start Mizo Wikipedia?
2. Who will manage the front page (Main_Page)?
3. Can we/I have more/advanced access regarding the administration by
myself or my team?

We are waiting for your response.

N.B: We already have some knowledge on Mediawiki software, you can check
out at http://wiki.khampat.com


Thanking you,

Lalchhuansanga Pachuau

Khampat .COM
