What legitimate purpose to Wikimedia's mission do serve then Esperanto, Ido, Interlingua, Interlingue, etc. Wiktionaries? You might want to lock all invented languages then. The message You got on tlh.wikt. is unaccaptable. But it should not be a reason for closing that wikt. Please have a look at the statements here http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9164
The reason to reopen it is: It is a _dictionary_ of an invented language. We have other Wiktionaries of that kind. Also, as I could see, there are quite active contributors there, so this wikt. got even bigger than some of the other mentioned invented languages sites not closed.
Thanks, best regards, Elisabeth Anderl -aka- spacebirdy

Per the announcement I put in the sitenotice last month, I have locked the Klingon-language Wiktionary, http://tlh.wiktionary.org/
As far as I know there was never any deliberate intention to have such a site (it would have been automatically created alongside the Klingon Wikipedia), and it was forgotten when the Klingon Wikipedia was closed. As soon as I was notified of its existence I put up the notice that it would not stay, so anyone working on it would be aware.
The only response I got to my notice was this very rude message, which was hidden away where I never saw it until today: http://tlh.wiktionary.org/wiki/lo%27wI%27_ja%27chuq:Brion_VIBBER
It seems pretty clear to me that the site doesn't serve any legitimate purpose to Wikimedia's mission; while it may be _fun_ it would be better hosted somewhere else, perhaps whereever the Klingon Wikipedia ended up?
If there's some legitimate reason to reopen it, let me know. We could hand the question off to the Language Committee if desired.
