Current status: this task is blocked on dev and ops.
Once DNS change is merged, this task should be moved to ''Blocked on development''. When that one + MediaWiki support for the language will be ready, move to ''Config - to process''.

@MF-Warburg Wikimedia language engineering isn't currently happy with translation progress: they would like 100 more messages translated, as requested here last year.
Concretely, it means the kbp code can't currently be added to MediaWiki, and so we can't have an UI in Kabye.
Shouldn't this be created despite the issue that may be at Translatewiki?
If the project met the requirements of WMF, it seems odd that they be asked to fulfill other requirements on Translatewiki later, especially if these keep changing.
According to our tool, it's ok: https://tools.wmflabs.org/robin/?tool=codelookup&code=kbp
Change 344562 had a related patch set uploaded (by Odder):
[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Create logo for the Kabiye Wikipedia
I've contacted the contributors again to make this happen.
The tool does not show whether TWN started to export this language's messages, which is an independent (though related) threshold from the criterion for approval.
@Nemo_bis Togo official language is French, and a translator asked on TranslateWiki how to print French translation too, as English isn't always understood. That's why the link contains uselang=fr.
how to print French translation too, as English isn't always understood
The answer is to enable French as assistant language in their preferences.
Change 343584 abandoned by Dereckson:
RESTBase: add kbp. and khw.wikipedia
Reason:
One wiki declined, one wiki stalled on language.
I just want to make sure, because this doesn't seem clear anywhere else: fallback language for this wiki will be French, right? Since it looks like this wiki will launch with de minimis message translation, that's important.
If all goes well, wmf4 will reach Wikipedia tomorrow. In such case, we will be able to create this wiki.

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Create logo for the Kabiye Wikipedia
When logo is official, add property logo image on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q28971705
When wiki is installed, add current date to property "inception" on the same page above.
We can create tables for the wiki this Thursday evening 21:00 UTC after MediaWiki train and before SWAT.

I updated the sites table for the new wiki (and to add it to the sites table for existing wikis). Interwiki links should work ok now
Asked on-wiki at Discussion:Talɩ ɖeu (Talk:Main Page). Very little activity on the wiki, so may not get any eyeballs. We'll see…
