That’s one problem.

Here is the best definition I'm aware of:
https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_write_Simple_English_pages

It's a mix of Basic English, VOA Special English, and some more guidelines,
and like everything in Wikipedia it's not set in stone.

I guess that the Simple Enlgish Wikipeia is the only place where this set
of rules is used. Can that be a problem? If it is, then maybe it can be
something en-x-simple, although it's uglyish for a domain.

I didn't!

> Maybe “wpsimple” would be precise enough. Are there other Simple
Wikipedias?

Not at the moment. There is a certain possibility of this happening in the
future.
