Would such a move benefit Wikipedia? I doubt it. If we had to choose between Jimbo and Angela working on both projects, or working only on Wikia, we would be crazy to choose the latter.
In a year or two it probably won't matter anyway, as Wikia won't exist any more.
I wouldn't bet for or against that one, it all depends what happens this year really. It depends on what Wikia does and also the market - if this whole Web2.0 stuff, which we sadly Wikia also belongs, bubble pops it might be over. It's hard to tell.
On the point of satire: Copyright situation for satire is defiantly different to other areas, however I am not an expert in this field at all and couldn't find any decent google hits within 10 seconds. Interestingly, the Wikipedia article on [[Satire]] doesn't mention anything as far as I can see. This could possibly be taken up by somebody.
