I would suggest that you underestimate the impact of this.

Please see my earlier post:
http://archives.conlang.info/se/qherkhen/qaunzhichuan.html

To summarize: Your wiki will die for the same reasons as the rest:
lack of content and ongoing support.

I concur. Collaborative projects don't last long in this highly individualistic
hobby. My latest collaborative conlang project, complete with dictionary,
forum, and user-editable corpus saw active participation for 14 days after its
creation. In the 2 months since then there has been no participation. That's
just how it works in the world of canlaning.
