I'd love to do an article on Digital extinction of language, but unfortunately I'm over-extended and about to be away anyway. This is a topic that is definitely receiving attention. My early take on it is that it has two senses: minority languages that don't have a presence on the web, but are not immediately threatened otherwise; i.e., they are spoken/written, and the "extinction" refers only to lack of a digital presence. There is also another sense, I think, in which even if the language is relatively okay now, pressure from competing languages which do have a web presence (even other minority languages, even if smaller/more threatened) will eventually cause pressure on the ones that don't, and could contribute to their actual extinction, not just from the web. There are good articles from plenty of reliable sources.
Hopefully, someone will take this up. I have the (red-linked) title watchlisted; if you end up choosing a different title, please ping me to its talk page. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 20:09, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

I need a private-use language tag for the Anatolian family of languages to use in Template:lang. However, I am having trouble coming up with something that fits the format used for these tags. Some help would be appreciated. Antiquistik (talk) 17:31, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
I seem to have waded into a minefield by restoring six example sentences at Franglais. They were deleted last year and again after I restored them as "unsourced" and "original research". I don't think they're research at all, and don't require sources as simple examples of something that's just been defined and cited to reliable sources. But another editor is equally certain that they are, and do. What we need now is other editors to weigh in and give opinions as to whether usage examples need to be cited to anything, or constitute "original research". This seemed like a reasonable place to ask. P Aculeius (talk) 23:31, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, there's a move discussion at Talk:Ivory Coast#Requested move 27 June 2024 about moving to Cote d'Ivoire per it overtaking Ivory Coast on ngrams, but there are questions whether it can be considered an WP:ENGLISHTITLE.
