Oh, please no. We had an enormous argument about Klingon and even now 
there's only 50 articles on tlh.

Is there really a user community large enough to sustain a Quenya 
wikipedia? What would the language code be? And can MediaWiki handle 
Tengwar fonts?

Genuine languages like Ossetian are finding it difficult enough to get 
the developer resources to set themselves up.  I don't think this is 
something that should be rushed into.
