Those who may wish to repurpose it have our permission, but there is
no need for us to guarantee the origins of the material.
A encyclopedia of that sort exists-- the de WP. They do it one way,
and the en WP can do it another.
Yes, i am saying we should rethink our interpretation, and make full
use of whatever material we legally can under copyright law where we
operate.

Then you are free to start your own project. This is wikipedia the
free encyclopedia.
