Why isn't Wikimedia or some other non-profit organization creating the "library" as Jimmy Wales likes to describe Wikia? Aren't the sites on
I'm not a moderator on this list nor do I want to pretend to be, but FYI, this list is primarily for talking about the installation and development of Mediawiki and topics related to that. Not for the "debate and discussion" on Wikipedia that you're trying to spark... This is mentioned here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mailing_lists
If you are new on this list, you can scan the archives to get an idea of the types of postings that are made.
IMHO, Mediawiki is the tool and not as related to the question you are asking as you think. It would be like asking the people who came up with the MP3 standard why music companies disallow music sharing ... kind of asking the wrong people...
