Presumably #1 should be: What is a conlang? or What is conlanging?

Definitely agree. Perhaps, to work in "international" with the right sense, you could go with: "Language Creation: an international journal". If we were more of an organized group (ha ha!), it might be something like "Bulletin of the International Conlang Society", though that might be a little pretentious. Perhaps it would be useful to have a "statement of mission", say on the inside cover of every edition, explaining what we're all about. I'm not sure we should actively discourage _all_ IAL proposals, though perhaps it should be made clear that the more virulent varieties aren't especially welcome
