The English Wikipedia has more than six million registered user 
accounts. About 50 editions of Wikipedia have more than 1000 registered 
user accounts. Content has thus been added by thousands of users in 
about 50 cases, and millions in at least one case. In what way does this 
constitute "poetic nonsense"?

Not at all. One native speaker who has no knowledge of any other 
language would be enough reason to start a project in that language.
