As has been pointed out, just the number of initial contributors is a bad indicator; but we do need some indication that a solid community is likely to emerge; and personally, I don't think number of fluent speakers (or even fluent speakers with net connections) provides this indication.
On Wikitravel, this is the deal:
1. There needs to be at least 5 users pledged to start up the wiki. 2. There needs to be one contact person for the new wiki. 3. The contact person has to make a monthly report about the state of the wiki: what's been happening, advances, debates, changes in policy or guidelines, etc. 4. If there's no or very little editing on the wiki for a month, or if the reports stop coming in, or if generally the thing just starts winding down, the wiki goes inactive. We turn off the wiki software, and make the content available in case someone else wants to use it.

I agree with these 4 points. In particular, the last point seems relevant to me.
