Need I say more? ;p
Does this mean a Gothic Wikipedia is a possibility, or no...?
I think it'd always remain a possibility. Developer-resource not withstanding, it ultimately comes down to the human resources that can be mobilized toward a pedia (i.e. number of active editors). The experience of editing small (well, okay, tiny) Wikipedias can be very different from editing en: or de: -- a bit like living in a village where you know everyone (and don't necessarily like half of them). Once the novelty has pretty much worn off, much of the motivation has to be internally-generated. Unavailability of a few key editors for any reason can suddenly plunge the pedia into the Dark Ages. On the brighter side, a Stubpedia (assuming it's not on the vfd Death Row) is also a bit like Asimov's The Foundation: it's a stepping stone toward Better Things.
