Looks good, though I’d perhaps be wary of using “Brussels” to refer to the European institutions — is this a term that US readers will understand? Though I suppose it’s definitely common enough for European audiences to comprehend.

Joe,
That's a good point.
To a European, Brussels is synonymous with European politics as much as Washington DC is synonymous with American politics. However, I'm sure that expressions like "the Brussels bubble" with no further explanation make little sense to non-Europeans.
Best regards, Karl

I think it’s OK to use the term Brussels if we also include the European Union in the same sentence.
But I would not recommend using ' Wikimedians enter the Brussels bubble to promote access to knowledge.’, which I thought I had struck out from the final copy.
