Because, as with every fork, it implies a lot of wasted effort in the future and it splits the editor community.
There are 200,000 potential editors out there of the islamic encyclopedia, and I'd guess approximately none of them are current WP editors. So it wouldn't waste any of our effort.
I don't think so. I'd rather guess, that there are WP editors among them, who got frustrated by the non-Muslim majority.
The mechanism of content tagging and filtering based on personal preferences wouldn't prevent us from making the best encyclopedia we can.
Content tagging on WP on the other hand would cost *us* resources, both time and bandwidth, with no benefit for *us*.
It wouldn't cost "us" that much, because those who care would do the job. Any yes, there is a benefit for "us", because there would be 1 billion people more likely to help us out.
Not a very good alternative.
Oh, and by the way, the same mechanism can certainly not be used to filter WP for children... Imagine a 15-year old boy reading, let's say, [[Autofellatio]], and there's a link saying "Don't click when you are not allowed to see adult content, please"...
There's no necessity to add that link in the "children edition".
Oh, so you are talking about a seperate edition for children? In that case, we agree.
No I'm not, that's why I used quotes. It would look like a children edition, but without the need to duplicate the effort we put into the "main edition".
