This is an excellent point. Though you may get some angst from those
already present who may feel pushed out as they see the culture of
Wikipedia changing (think how hard it has been for some of those
present from the very beginning, or near the beginning, to adapt over
the last ten years). How to manage such change is an interesting
problem.
