"If you know Central Atlas Tamazight language you can start Wikipedia
<by doing that or this>." will stay on publicly searchable pages:
* http://tzm.wikipedia.org
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Atlas_Tamazight_language

-- and it is likely that it will be the first result on Google [and
other] search engines.

Besides that:
* Interwiki links are planned to exist.
* It shouldn't be so hard to add the ~100kb more on www.wikipedia.org
with proper "continue" links, similar to microblogging engines.
