AFAICT it just consists of [[Main Page]]. When I started writing jbo:, I 
promptly moved it to [[ralju papri]], translated general article names (such 
as "music" and "geography") from other Main Pages, and copied the coelacanth 
article (which I wrote the original version of in Lojban before translating 
to English). The taxobox had all the templates missing, so I added them.
