Request to enable Ho language for translation

Will you take care of suggesting an update to Ethnologue?

I did it. Here is what I wrote:


Hello,

The page currently says "Warang Citi script [Wara], no longer in use."

"Wara" is a link to http://scriptsource.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=script_detail&key=Wara . That page lists several articles, which suggest that the script is in current use, and this contradicts what the Ethnologue page says.

For your convenience, here is a direct link to the Zide article (it's a bit hard to find on the Scriptsource page): http://sealang.net/sala/archives/pdf8/zide1999three.pdf

And here is another document that supports the fact that Warang Citi is in current use: https://www.swarthmore.edu/SocSci/langhotspots/Ho/alphabet/Ho_Unicode_review.pdf

Can you please update your page accordingly?

Thank you!


If there are no objections, I will add "hoc" to translatewiki.net.

And Ethnologue people replied and said they'll fix it!

I love it when Wikipedia changes sources :)
