Based on Milos's message of 22:51 UTC Friday, along with a comment from Prof. Boeree
at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Language_committee#Lingua_Franca_Nova_…, I am
marking this project as approved, and will open a phabricator task to do same.

I’m working with both Boeree and with Simon Davies on a new dictionary of LFN. I published
Simon’s translation of Alice in 2012.

I’m not a fluent speaker, but I can tell you that the language on these pages is genuinely
LFN. Do you need more?

This has been out a week with no objections, so I am marking this as
"approving" (pending language check).
I guess the logical person to contact on this is the creator of the language, C. George
Boeree, Professor Emeritus at Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania. (I am told he
contributed a small amount to the project, but was not a major contributor.) He has a web
page at
https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwebspace.s…p;reserved=0,
and his email address is cgboer(a)ship.edu. Please let me know who is going to handle
this.

Yes, I think this should be enough as the expert verification.

Hoi,
We had Klingon at one time.. Do you really consider revisiting that ?
Thanks,

Can we, by the way, define more detailed criteria
for which artificial
languages should be eligible?
Agreed. If we count native speakers, Klingon is, AFAIK, immediately
after Esperanto.
