I'm saying that Lieven's intuitive feeling about what Klingonists agree on should not be taken as a mandate. mayqel cited that page as if it is authoritative, or at least asking why he should do what it advises.
Just for the record: I did not make that up myself based on my "intuitive feeling" (and besides, everyone can work on the Wiki). The main contents of that page - especially the section "Klingonists convention" - is copied one-to-one from the mailings lists FAQ, written somewhere in the first years of the list, so between 1993 and 1997. So even if that FAQ is still just a recommendation, it has some kind of mandate for at least this mailing list, as it answers typical beginenrs questions, avoiding lenghthy discussions about the possibilities and just providing a simple solution.
Which is still not a mandate,
Besides, Marc Okrand uses {tlhIngan} "translation" when writing Klingon texts, so at least that part is even canon. -- Lieven L. Litaer aka the "Klingon Teacher from Germany" http://www.klingonisch.de www.klingonwiki.net/En/Punctuation
