I have therefore proposed a vote on Wiktionary to loosen the citation requirement for endangered languages (<a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Votes/2012-04/Languages_with_limited_documentation">http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Votes/2012-04/Languages_with_limited_documentation</a>).*<div><div><br></div><div><div>Part of the proposal is to include languages not listed in the UNESCO Language Atlas (<a href="http://www.unesco.org/culture/languages-atlas/">http://www.unesco.org/culture/languages-atlas/</a>) as endangered but that still lack a strong oral history. The only language I have come up with so far is Tok Pisin. Can anyone provide other languages that would qualify for this? I would like to add them to the proposal (or rewrite to include them). Please respond off-list.</div><div><div><br></div><div>* My previous proposal failed, but I have taken many of the objections into consideration and think this has a good chance of passing. The actual vote should start in about a week; the voting requirement is basically a Wiktionary account with at least 50 edits at least one week in advance of the vote (<a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Votes/2010-04/Voting_policy">http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Votes/2010-04/Voting_policy</a>).</div></div></div></div><div><br></div><div>Benjamin Barrett</div><div>Seattle, WA</div></body></html>
