In that case, the obvious solution is to have it elsewhere (if it is
wanted by anyone, of course). Why anybody would object to any language
being written by somebody else in a particular alphabet, is beyond my
understanding. Nobody is being forced to use it.

All in all - if someone wants to recreate dawiki in Devanagari or
enwiki in the Hebrew alphabet, why should I care? It may be a waste of
resources, but not ground for hissyfits as we have seen here.
