Wow. That was a long read. Some very interesting points, I hope you will
forgive me if I ignore most.
I do want to stress a few things. There is a difference between the Free
Content Movement, the Group of People who Use Wiki's and the Wikimedia
Movement. Within the Free Content Movement, which is
smaller wiki's wont perish from hard to make standards which
might make sense for dewiki and enwiki. (I'm happy to see there's a
SWMT-member though, but still better to involve more people I think)

Thanks for considering Europeans too. However, isn't something like
