Na'vi language in Wikipedia
Out of curiosity, I Googled Na'vi language Wikipedia - and found articles in 31 language
  including Arabic, Komi, Asturian and Eywa-knows-what else! Also out of curiosity I compared the articles in some languages that I understand, and found some differences (apart of the sheer length - in Komi, it's just one line!  ): English: Paul Frommer together with the community keep expanding the lexicon. Spanish: The fans invent new words which are added to the vocabulary after Paul's approval. French: Paul keeps working on the language for 20-th Century Fox and thinks it will be marvellous if Na'viteri takes on its own life (correct me if I am wrong - it's been ages since I spoke any French). Russian, German, Portuguese, Catalan: zilch about post-Avatar creation / expansion of the language. So! Who is right and who is wrong here? Lots of people trust Wikipedia as a source of information, it would be nice to know the truth!
