I was thinking about another possible portal arrangement, that based on language family, giving the Latin, French, Spanish, etc. languages a grouping, the Germanic languages, and so forth. Perhaps not for the main portal, but rather on the article for Latin or Romance-languages, we could add a language tree with links to the daughter language wikipedias. Same with an article on proto-Germanic.
Most people know very little about the origins of languages. Only a linguist would want to see them sorted like that.
