The English Wikipedia has Serbs, Bosniaks, Croats, and many neutral people; the Serb Wikipedia does not benefit from nearly the same diverse population.
There are probably comparable blind spots in the en Wikipedia, where English speakers are insufficiently critical of themselves, or insufficiently informed on topics that don't interest them.
