Discussion for the creation of a Norman wikipedia has been held and approved
unanimously (10 in favour).  A link containing the discussion may be found
here:

Request was originally for the creation of a Jèrriais Wikipedia, but it has
been agreed upon to create a pan-Norman wiki, instead, using Jèrriais as the
de facto standard.  There is currently a thriving test-wiki in Norman
(though at least 95% of the articles are in Jèrriais).  I am requesting that
the Wikipedia be created at nor.wikipedia.org, or, if there is a problem
with this owing to nor's designation as the ISO code for Norwegian (though
there likely would be no wikipedia conflict; norwegian already has a
2-letter domain code), nrm.wikipedia.org would also work.

Thank you for your time,
Miché-Forêt
