I don't have any objection in principle to groups producing
their own encyclopedias in any language, but when it comes to spending Wikipedia Foundation money I hope it will be used to cover the languages of living humans in preference to languages of interest only to fans, hobbyists and linguists.
Quite true... but note that these projects usually do not grow much, and do not have much visitors, so they do not cost much ;-)
If we have a precedent that zh: can block the existence of a Cantonese Wikipedia, can en: block Quenya? Please?
("No, we refused to set up a Wikipedia for a language spoken by millions. But we have lovely Klingon and Quenya wWikipedias for you!")
