Please read the handbook for requesters for help using this template correctly. |
Gujarati is widely spoken language of Indo-aryan origin, with people spread all around the world. Gujarati wikipedia is developing fast with active participation of some regular contributors as well as some anonymous contributions. Same applies to Wikisource, there is a wide range of literature (falk songs, stories, literature in PD, etc.) which is being contributed on wikisource. Currently the users contributing there faces a problem of inability to type in Gujarati script, and hence copy/paste material, which is non-searchable due to language support. Hence we request to create subdomain for Gujarati language.
Arguments in favour
- I strongly support to above request, because GUJARATI is spoken language in my state. We get our education also in GUJARATI language. We have very rich collection in our GUJARATI language. By approving this request we can easily work in WIKISOURSE. સતિષચંદ્ર 04:18, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

- Gujarati language, doubtlessly deserves a domain to maintain its solitary legacy of great poets, writers, historic people and culture. I firmly support the request! મહર્ષિં --Maharshi675 11:01, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- let the whole world be benefited with the rich literatue of Gujarati language. I support the same. --Sushant savla 05:12, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
- I support above request as a gujju reader of wiki--Dkgohil 07:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC).
Arguments against
- There are only 127 pages in oldwikisource:Category:Gujarati. oldwikisource:WS:LANG shows that this is the 12th largest collection in the incubator (Russian is already moved to a separate project; संस्कृत is Sanskrit), so it needs to grow more before it is ready to move to a separate project.
