This reads like a joke :-) I don't know whether people will take this proposal seriously. Besides Betawi or Batavian Malay is a Malay dialect which is very similar to Indonesian. Every speaker of Betawi is also able to understand standard Malay. Imagine reading/writing an article in Cockney English. Meursault2004 16:44, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Meursault2004. Besides, Betawinese is nearer to spoken (informal) language rather than written one. As I know, we should write wikipedia article in formal language, shouldn't we? Formal Betawinese almost the same as Indonesian. It sounds ridiculous to read my own informal language for this. Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia is enough.

I actually disagree this. I ,as a native speaker of Batavian, find that the real Batavian language is very different to Indonesian both the Jakartan Indonesian dialect and Standard Malay/Indonesian. This is why I am currently starting to edit some posts which have grammatical errors and mistaken word-choice. I think that it is quite unsuite if you compare Batavian with Malay/Indonesian and when you compare Cockney English with Standard English. Here, I am ready to be a volunteer to be an editor or writer in Batavian Wikipedia articles. I will try to check the grammatical mistakes and word-choice.

Simple version of Indonesian Wikipedia[edit source]

I think it will be like a Simple English Wikipedia, but of course with informal Indonesia language. Victoriano (talk) 21:49, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
