You realise, someday the announcement will read:

However, the category of traditional wiki encyclopedias and reference
material has changed. People today seek and consume information in
considerably different ways than in years past."
Civilisation proceeds obsolescence by obsolescence....
I'm fine with that - it's inevitable, and so far as I can think, only has
three flavors-
- Wikipedia subsumes into whatever may come in future,
- Wikipedia becomes whatever may come in future (or specializes into some
niche),
- or Wikipedia is marginalized (and potentially killed off) by whatever
may come in future.
