The 'Modern Normative Belarusian' Wikipedia (as written by the majority
of Belarusians) should be at
. The minority revision
should be at an alternate domain or merged.

Request for wikipedia in Modern Normative Belarusian
(proposed as "Belarusian (Orthography Revison of 1959) language (which is official in
Republic of Belarus) has been in "Request for new language" since July of 2006.
Since that time it collected more than 100 (108) voices for support and 35 voices for
oppose.
Since August of 2006 there is Test wikipedia in Normative Modern Belarusian language (
http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/be ) which now has more than 2500(!) articles in
it.
Recently the request collect enough voices (3/4) for support (including 15(!) native
speakers - actually there were more fluent speakers as many comments are written in modern
belarusian language to get moved to "Approved requests".
Can we, please, get a wikipedia now?
We requested domain
bel.wikipedia.org as it's official ISO 639-2,3 code for modern
belarusian language, and because
be.wikipedia.org is taken by alternative belarusian
language (unofficial s.c. "neo-tarashkevich" belarusian language that differs
much from Normative Modern Belarusian language).
Or, maybe, our team should contact a developer to get a wikipedia?
Thank you forward!
