ultimately, if we have to choose, we pick the encyclopedia.
And who is "we" but the community?
We is really Jimbo and the Wikimedia Foundation, plus anybody who
happens to agree with their call on a major issue. E.g., that NPOV is
non-negotiable. Or that we're building an encyclopedia rather than
anything else. Although I'd hope that "we" would include the bulk of the
current community, for the purposes of this thought experiment, it might
not.
Of course, that's the opportunity for other "we"s to crystallize. Just
like Conservapedia or Citizendium. And there's nothing wrong with that.
