  • Self voting does not count towards the total, and there are far too few of us to dilute the effect.
  • Unregistered users may not vote.
  • Newly registered must be working on a conlang of some sort, on the Linguifex wiki.
  • Bots cannot vote at all.

"This language was once featured. Thanks to its level of quality, plausibility and usage capabilities, it has been voted as featured."

  • Intention - How well the language serves its intention, if any.

  • Grammar - How are the various grammatical components cooperating? Is it complicated, too complicated or simple? Depends on its intention.
  • Usability - Is the language usable, functional or difficult to use? How are the texts glossed? How many texts/words are there?
  • Completeness - "Perfection is many small details done well" - Marco Pierre White - Does the language seem complete to you? Is it lacking in any aspect?
