Hoi,<br>The request for new projects asks at this time for a Wikipedia in American Sign Language and a Wikipedia in Danish Sign Language. The incubator at the SignWriting Foundation allows for articles written in SignWriting in any sign language. <br>
<br>For your information, SignWriting is the only script used for both casual and not so casual writing. It is a script to write in the language not a script to describe the use of the language.<br>Thanks,<br> GerardM<br>

So what language deviate would the sign language be in? American Sign<br>
Language? Australian Sign Language? British Sign Language?<br>
<br>
What picture sets would be used (I know for example Australia has<br>
about 4 depending on the situation where they are being used)?<br>
