As, I said by allowing Chinese Wikipedians (who
are probably just kids
who aren't aware of what exactly their government does to
"dissidents") will do them more harm than good. You wouldn't be
breaking any laws, you would just be getting some Chinese teenager
shot for being a "traitor". America tried to bring democracy to Iraq
and only succeeded in instigating a civil war.Americans were not put
on this planet for the express purpose of preserving democracy-why
don't you give it a rest for a while?
There are good reasons why this list is dedicated to improving the English
Wikipedia. Rather than the world situation in general.
The main purpose of Wikipedia can be defined as a (new) kind of publishing,
namely putting high quality and informative and neutral, factual articles
into the public domain, under the GFDL. That is what we do. This is not
propaganda.
That's what Wikipedia pretends to do according to the policies.
I've believed that myself until I've found out, that administrators
block editors they disagree with.
