From MediaWiki FAQ:
MediaWiki is free software: this means that you may use it for any purpose without legal hindrance. Furthermore, its licensing conditions apply solely to the software itself. This means that although many wikis license their content under a permissive license, you are not obliged to license the content submitted to your wiki in any particular way. Thus Linguifex:Copyrights is still in force until a new consensus has been reached.

Template:Whitepagehead "This wiki is aimed at facilitating the development and creation of constructed languages. Constructed languages are made for a specific purposes, enjoyment and other reasons. They are often linked to constructed cultures and other kinds of inspired settings. Constructed languages have almost endless possibilities, so try making one!"

As all wikis, Linguifex requires standardised rules and codes for a streamlined work. Because of incidents and accidents, it has come to the administration's knowledge that these need to be listed and clarified. The wiki has therefore created four cross-referencing policies which cover editing, style, language, blocking, deletion and privacy. A special policy deals with the in-house definition of vandalism and the procedures and/or consequences resulting from it.
