The Conlang Flag, a symbol of language construction created by subscribers to the CONLANG mailing list, which represents the Tower of Babel against a rising sun. A constructed language (shortened to conlang) [a] is a language whose phonology, grammar, orthography, and vocabulary, instead of having developed naturally, are consciously devised for some purpose, which may include being devised ...
However, I think having some speakers besides the creator is a plus; an artlang that just barely merits inclusion based on its completeness, fame, influence, etc., would be pushed over the edge into definite notability by having some speakers besides the author (even if only 10 or 20). We might do this with a structure similar to Almafeta's ...

Number of speakers, like IJzeren mentioned, is not a true meter of a conlang's notability, since someone could have developed his conlang over a lifetime, had a lot of people know it, yet noone might have tried to learn it, either because it is too complicated, or it is beautiful in paper, but not so beautiful one would be inclined to learn it.
In addition, developers of pan-Romance languages suggest other uses and benefits: [11] the language can benefit from contributions from Romance's different varieties, which improve and enrich it (with regularizations, expressive means, etc.); it can be a shelter for speakers of Romance languages which are vanishing, like Occitan or Sardinian ...
The remaining consonants are pronounced as English speakers would pronounce them. Sona also has no double consonants or digraphs. [4] Sona utilizes elision, meaning when a radical with a vowel prefix is followed by its own primary or -n form, the common vowel is dropped. For example, ata-ta becomes atta, and ata-tan becomes attan.
