Heya,

So I thought I'd bring some life to this close-to-dead forum, and there was this thing I was wondering, which I thought was the ideal opportunity to start a thread. c:

My question(s): does any of you have a wiki in (this means not about, but actually written completely in) their constructed language? Used to? Maybe considering on making one? Or not before I posted this thread? >3<"

If the answer is yes, another couple of questions: what were the difficulties you encountered while doing so? Would you advise people to do it or would you say it's something too bothersome to even try and you regret doing it? Tips and tricks for people who are planning on creating one?

As for me,

I created a wiki in my conlanguage already (w:c:hvec), even though it has no content pages yet. I'm currently translating as many of the Special:AllMessages as I can so that my wiki will appear to outsiders entirely in my conlang.

Difficulties I've encountered so far:

Anything of this sound familiar?
 * Pywiki doesn't recognize my wiki as member of the rest of the family (w:c:hvetshran)
 * It took me a lot of mailing back and forth to Staff to have them link my wiki as HV:
 * When Staff did link it, I found out I had pages at HV: that now redirected to my conwiki >3<
 * The Special:AllMessages are over 5,000 messages I need to translate... most of which contain technical terminology my language would not have.
