iso639-3:juc is currently classified this language as Extinct, therefore having an Incubator test project violates LPP, as the Jurchen people (if even having elders) are nowadays shifted to speak Manchu (even though have low numbers of native speakers), I don't see why such finger-counted pages are having benefits here. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 02:28, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
- After reading Liuxinyu970226's request for deletion, I endorse the opinion of this user. Although Jurchen Wikipedia was created by myself, I think it's useless to maintain a Wiki project on an extinct language. My views on deleting Jurchen Wikipedia are as follows.
- First and foremost, just as Liuxinyu970226 mentioned above, Jurchen is an extinct language whose speakers have shifted to Manchu. Jurchen script was created in early Jin dynasty (金朝, 1115-1234) by Wanyan Xiyin (完颜希尹) according to Chinese character and Nurhachi's grandfather Wang Gao (王杲, 1529-1575), who lived during the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) is thought to be one of the last person who can write Jurchen script. Moreover, The Jurchen characters I entered on the Jurchen Wikipedia are not included in Unicode, so they cannot be displayed correctly and are displayed as rectangles which are unrecognizable. The script used in Jurchen Wikipedia can only be displayed by the font called “CCAMC Jurchen & Khitan Std”. Afterwards, Jurchen script has not been completely deciphered, and there are still some characters that have not been figured out. Hence, from my perspective, we should focus on editing Manchu Wikipedia rather than the Jurchen one. So it's reasonable to delete the Jurchen Wikipedia. --MiiCii (talk) 04:36, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- As this request has been dead since 2023, I'll delete the Wp/juc wiki based on it being an extinct language and the arguments here presented by MiiCii. Iohanen (Garcez) (talk) 03:08, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- Done. Wp/juc was made into a redirect to Wp/mnc since it is considered historical by SIL. Iohanen (Garcez) (talk) 03:22, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

This project is following in the footsteps of the Ter Saami wp in that it is one word in the language followed by its equivalent in Russian and a pic. This project also has the equivalent in English for some reason. For example, this page on sheep, which also includes the Avar word for the animal. Main page is in Russian, except for the pagename, which is in English. Seems to mainly be the work of a non-native speaker. No request at Meta. Yupik (talk) 19:59, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- Move to Wt/akv. Таёжный лес (talk) 20:49, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Таёжный лес That would only be possible if Wt/akv can however be maintained by true native speakers of Akhvakh, while per Ethnologue, a 2020 census said that it has 5020 speakers, I'm still having doubts on Wt/akv quality. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 02:10, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete, except Wp/akv itself, this project shall be re-created from scratch, current project isn't useful et al. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 22:36, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
@Yupik If you don't oppose, then I will also nominate Wt/akv for the same reason. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 04:26, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

Turkish pages on Wp/atv
All these pages were created by an anonymous user from Turkey in 2009 and are written in Latin, unlike the Cyrillic alphabet used in Northern Altai.
All of them are not written in Northern Altai, but in Turkish and contain only a few images from Wikimedia Commons. Таёжный лес (talk) 18:32, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Problem has been fixed now Σιδέρης10 (talk) 20:05, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- Not done. Project has been considered eligible by LangCom, therefore according to the Closure or deletion policy, it can't be deleted. Pages not in the Cyrillic alphabet (most have no content too) are going to be deleted. Iohanen (Garcez) (talk) 18:29, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- Note: I've deleted every non-Cyrillic page that contained nothing more than an image. I left three pages that seemed legitimate (contained some text). Iohanen (Garcez) (talk) 18:40, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Like the previous Wp/ota one (see archive), this language is already Historical for several centuries, and hence violate LPP. With regards to several look-like useful contents, it's preferred to merge this test project into Turkish Wiktionary, or else move to Incubator Plus. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 23:50, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
- If there's an Incubator Plus or a domain of the Turkish Wikipedia where people interested in the language can make a case for it, these may be good solutions. WhisperToMe (talk) 02:32, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- Done. Iohanen (Garcez) (talk) 01:02, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
