What would be necessary for you to recognize/accept an authority to tell you what is and is not klingon?

Would you accept/want a central authority at all, for that matter?
If not - what else? The only alternative to a central authority I see would be anyone making up words and grammar as they like.

I wouldn't call that fascinating. Horrible, rather.
I think that's what happens with HTML right now - WHATWG is apparently determined to ruin what the W3C intended.
If the same would happen to klingon, I'd probably stop trying to learn it.
