Please tell me if you see mistakes in a Na'vi post of mine. It's the only way I'll learn. :P

Sounds like somebody was being a little old school when they committed that edit on Wiki. Just because a language isn't organic doesn't mean it doesn't "fit". IMO, the reference should include any viable language and Na'vi is certainly viable.

EDIT: Looks like the edit was from somebody involved in the Company of Angels repertory theater in Los Angeles.  ???

Sran however Wikipedia has a small thing against conlangs for more serious and general topics such as the mirative.
