Tiang language
[edit]- ... that the Tiang language is spoken by 790 people on the northern half of Dyaul Island?

The article is not long enough - only 596 bytes of "readable prose". Minimum is 1500.
Created on 5th January and submitted on the 11th - I don't know whether that counts as five or six days old.
The hook is not particularly catchy, perhaps "...Only 790 people..." but this number is based on 40 year old data and thus unlikely to reflect the situation today. ► Philg88 ◄

- You'd have to reach 3,000 characters with the article to qualify for DYK. It may be possible, but my experience with Anal language suggests that it might not be easy. Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:49, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
