I just want to make it clear that I was never assuming one Wikinews
would influence the success of another in the way that you imply. I
was simply passing on the results of a discussion on IRC, in which I
was led to believe that one of the German mailing lists had made a
decision about this, and I wanted to clarify the situation before the
wiki was created.

Anyhow, the wiki now exists and I have made Elian an administrator
there and Mathias a bureaucrat as per requests via Jimbo.
