I can speak Hebrew pretty fluently and I have already contributed to many localization projects

Hello, I'm User:Khalid Mahmood and I would like to request translation priviledges for the Western Panjabi language. It is also stated that the local Shahmukhi name for "Western Punjabi" is "Punjabi" too. Thanks. --Khalid Mahmood 09:16, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Please create a user page first as requested. Siebrand 09:23, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The Punjabi I am talking about is not the Indian Punjabi as it is written in Gurmukhi script but the Pakistani Punjabi (Western Punjabi) is written in Shahmukhi script. It is currently in wikipedia incubator, its Main page can be viewed at http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/pnb. Please allow for that. I am trying to create a user page as you said but the language I am trying to translate is not available:Shahmukhi or Western Punjabi.--Khalid Mahmood 14:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * OK. Thank you for the clarification. Two questions that need answering:
 * What is the localised name for this language?
 * Is there a language that currently has some localisation that could serve as a fall back language for Western Punjabi?
 * ✅ Siebrand 11:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * The localised name for this language is Punjabi.
 * There is no other language to fall back. However Gurmukhi or eastern Punjabi is the nearest to it but the script is the problem.--Khalid Mahmood 15:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The localised name cannot be "Punjabi", because you indicated above that the language is written in Shahmukhi script, not in Latin. So I need the localised name in the Shahmukhi script. It may be "پنجابی", but I need some verification. Siebrand 16:04, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Gentleman if German is written in Arabic script instead of Latin it will remain German. Interestingly you have written Punjabi in Arabic script later. That is ok. "Punjabi" and "پنجابی" are 100% same and equal but the script is different.--Khalid Mahmood 16:48, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Then let me be more clear: I need to know how "Punjabi" is written in Shahmukhi script. Siebrand 18:20, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * It will be my pleasure Sierbrand to show you how Punjabi is written in Shahmukhi. It is written from right to left and alphabets are almost same like Arabic, Persian Pashtu etc. You have already given above a specimen of it in one word form: "پنجابی". I have started an article about a french painter Marie Vigee Lebrun in this script. Please see it in the following connection:

Hello I'd like to ask for translator privileges for the Aymara language, I noticed that its translation is going a little bit slow so I'd love to help. Besides I'd like to clarify one thing about the localised name, "aymar" as it is currently written is grammatically incorrect, the correct form is either "aymar aru" which can be translated as the "language of the Aymara" and it's the way languages are named, for example "Kastilla aru" means Spanish because it's the language from Castilla, Spain; or if there is a rule in Wikipedia about using only one word it should be "aymara". The Aymara language has a grammar rule which states that if a word has 3 or more syllables and the next word starts with a vocal, the last vocal of the first word disappears, but if there is no "aru" after the word it should be written "aymara", I'm not sure if this is the right place to correct that but since above there was a discussion about other language I thought that I should also point that out; thanks in advance. --Erebedhel 13:00, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Kaingang language is a important indigenous language in Southern Brazil, and a great number of native speakers of it are very interested in use their language in web. I want to cooperate with Betawiki and other digital means for more visibility of Kaingang language, and for the strengthening of it. In fact, I will coordinate a group os native speakers in a constitution process nowadays, and we would like to be authorized to translate for Kaingang. Wilmardeangelis 10:23, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * ✅ Interesting. As it is a small language, you will probably have a big challenge pulling this off. I wish you the best though, and hope that Betawiki can help. Cheers! Siebrand 20:08, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

The Veps language (vep) (not listed in Betawiki) needs some basic translations (e. g. here).

Budelberger 03:47, 13 December 2008 (UTC).
 * You appear to be a non-speaker. We normally wait until a (near-)native speaker comes to request translator rights. I see no reason to deviate from that now. Siebrand 11:23, 14 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I « appear » ?… (« Was once vep-3 ; now, I'm vep-0. »…) You must be a native speaker to translate « January »… and « Monday »… (what is called « basic translations ») ? Yes, I think too. --Budelberger 18:35, 14 December 2008 (UTC) ([[Image:Flag of France.svg|15px]]). (P.-S. : Veps has – horresco referens – now – despite of languages Unlovers – its own request on Meta ; but the title of this section is still « [vep] vep – vep ».)
 * I have decided to not give you translator rights for now. Siebrand 19:36, 14 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Et vous faites bien, non mais. Et vous devriez même, comme vos petits camarades, me couper mon compte. --Budelberger 21:58, 14 December 2008 (UTC) ([[Image:Flag of France.svg|15px]]).
