The difference is is that there is to my knowledge no such thing as a flying polar bear, yet there are real Friulian people with internet access.

It's highly unlikely you'll be able to get even half of the educated Friulian-speaking population editing Wikipedia. Are they potential? Yes, in much the same way that I could potentially be killed by a falling polar bear from the sky as I type this.

Also, my definition of "potential contributors" means all the people who speak the language and have Internet access, which in the case of Friulian is well over 5. What fraction of the world's English speaking population is currently involved in the en:Wikipedia or any other English language sister project? How is that relevant? We are talking about "potential contributors".
