I'm about to create a stub article for "Neo-Sindarin". Would it be better to have an inclusive article for all (that is, the best or most well-known) attempts to create standardized and/or expanded versions of any of Tolkien's invented languages? Perhaps the best name for such an article would be "Neo-Elvish", but it would it be good to be able to include "Neo-Black Speech" and "Neo-Orkish" as well (which, perhaps, still could be included in such an article).--Morgan 16:53, 19 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I've seen it called Neo-Eldarin. I don't think there's much notable Neo-BS, other than the Olympic verse and the movie stuff. --Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 22:48, 19 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I created the article Neo-Elvish to encompass all what Neo-Quenya says and several more. I suggest we put a redirect from Neo-Quenya to Neo-Elvish. Sage 15:50, 25 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
