  • Make sure the language is approved by looking at meta:Approved requests for new languages
  • Find its ISO 639 code. We don't currently have a decent way to pick subdomains for languages without an ISO 639 code.
  • Add the code to /home/wikipedia/common/langlist
  • Add the language name to language/Names.php, in CVS and live
  • Add entry in the DNS zone (just run /usr/local/etc/powerdns/update which reuse /h/w/c/langlist )
  • Run 'maintenance/addwiki.php languagecode projectname databasename', projectname will be used to add the site to /home/wikipedia/common/project.dblist
  • Run sync-common-all (needed to refresh at least the all.dblist file )
  • Run 'maintenance/initStats.php languagecode' to initialize the site_stats row

Wiki should be created, announce it on Server admin log, wikitech-l and wikipedia-l.
