Hi Paul,

some thoughts and a beginning I wrote to
http://lfn.esef.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/LFNaViciPedia

Our wiki at http://lfn.esef.net and a LFN version of the wikipedia would
have not the same intention.
At least not in every peculiarity.

Our wiki is also a platform for discussion about language topics.
The Page where we discuss new words for LFN is the most used page there.
http://lfn.esef.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/ParolaManca

Other pages would be a good start for the wikipedia - so if we'll have
our wikipedia we'll have a set of pages prepared for a good start.

Another good site is the wikibooks.org.
People develop there a lot of online books, in the "language shelf"
you'll find a lot of language courses
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Category:Languages
Also for some conlangs.
A good place for
http://lfn.esef.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/ParolaManca

So if (the conditional is so important in this email ;-) we had a wikipedia
I would try to migrate more and more from our wiki - but I'am not sure
if everything would be fitting.

The wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a discussion forum.
The Toki Pona version was dropped, I don't know why, maybe people
thought TP is a joke not a language - but I believe that the TP version
was dropped because they don't wrote articles just garbage - just
snippets and personal homepages.

Well, what is the resume? We need a volunteer who want to become
MR.Wikipedia (or MRS. Wikipedia of course) for the LFN community, we
don't need a Wikipedia localisation for the beginning, but somebody
have to pass the administrative steps to setup a LFN Wikipedia.
