Deletion of List of countries by spoken languages

There are too many world languages listed as "minority" in the US, for instance.  Is it based on there being one family, or a tiny community in a couple of cities?

For any language presently  spoken in the world, there are likely dozens or hundreds of persons who have come to the US who have some knowledge of it, so it is meaningless to selectively list it for some of these languages which are very rare in the US. There should be some rational cutoff, such as 1%, or even .1% to include any language as a "minority language" of a country. Some countries have "officially recognized minority languages," but that does not seem to be a meaningful criterion in the US. References should be required for every entry to satisfy  and to avoid original research ("My Gramps and Gramma came from Oogerland and speak Oogrish, so I'll put in in Wikipedia as a "minority language
