Proposal talk:Canadian French Wikipedia

This would be useless. The French language is regulated by the Académie Française. The Office québécois de la langue française reflects pretty much the same rules of the Académie. The spelling is the same, only the pronunciation is different. Thus Québécois is a dialect of French. Moreover, it is mostly a different evolution from old, pre-Revolution royal French. All Québécois understand standard French, especially in written form. There is thus no need for another encyclopedia project. It would be a waste of resources. fr:User:Bidouleroux 67.204.55.24 04:42, 14 August 2009 (UTC) <--Un québécois!Reply

Well I wish I could change my vote now.... 99.25.114.234 18:35, 14 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I don’t recall that anyone on the French-language Wikipedia even emitted the idea of a separate Canadian French Wikipedia. —Cépey 18:34, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

See also fr:Débat sur la norme du français québécois. Note also that Quebec French is not the only variety of French in Canada : see en:template:French dialects by continent (acadien, français de Terre-Neuve, etc...). In my opinion, a Quebec French Wikipedia is not more urgent than an American English Wikipedia. A Cajun Wikipedia might make sense though, if you can find a community to maintain it.

Language conversion system

Please, take a look at the talk about a Language conversion system mentioned on wikitech list. The use of that system is more acceptable than the creation of a new wiki just because of variants of some language... 143.107.45.43 12:20, 15 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
