That would be like making a font with every single English word as a separate letter.
Not feasible.

What about making a font with pictures of hands doing the signs, and making users download that?

Uhm, why does that need it's own wiki? Couldn't the videos just be added to en wiki? And also, can't most deaf people (in english speaking countries) read/write english?
ASL is not English. It has its own distinct grammar and vocabulary. But I question whether videos of signed language are worth the bandwidth and space required to store them.
