> This clause is for constructed language
>
> First you have to read the links of the draft to understand the reason of the clause
>
> Anyone is able to create a constructed language. all possible (infinite) conlangs should have its own Wiki? no. how to avoid unuseful conlang. for its current uses. those with incompatible uses with wikimedia goals are banned.
>
> The phrasis "to have literary pieces written previously by people other than the creator of the language", prevent languages that are only supported by its author, if no additional people write in the language, that would convert it in a personal language.
>
> Engineered languages (specially logical languages) have an important goal, its mission is clarify scientific language. reduce ambiguity. the searching of accuracy is compatible.
>
> Conlang like Esperanto, Interlingua, etc pretends to be international auxiliary languages, its potential international use is the reason why they can have its own wiki.
>
> Artistic languages, are only used for the entertaiment. it is included Joke languages, fictional languages, etc. Wikimedia is not a place for them. they are banned.
