Wikidata:WikiProject Endangered Languages

The goal of this WikiProject is to improve the documentation of Endangered languages. There are a number of organizations who have described the endangered languages of the world. UNESCO has classified the endangered languages into 5 based on their level of endangerment: vulnerable language (Q83365345), definitely endangered language (Q83365347), severely endangered language (Q83365366), critically endangered language (Q83365404) and extinct language (Q38058796). This project mainly uses this UNESCO classification, however it's not limited to use this classification. Other projects like Endangered Languages Project (Q27777767) can also be used as a reference.
