Language qualifications #1494

The esolangs are getting a bit out of hand. I think there should be some requirements for languages to be added. Has an interpreter/compiler (not hypothetical)? Turing complete?

Requiring a language to be Turing-complete may rule out some languages with significant real-world use. For example, proof assistants (e.g. Coq and Agda) are generally not Turing-complete.
