- 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.
