No. You can argue for the tolerance of minority languages but actively promoting them conflicts with Wikimedia's stated objectives.
How?
Do you edit wikipedia to give "Free Access To All Human Knowledge" only to the educated elite?
"The mission of the Wikimedia Foundation is to empower and engage people around the world " first line of the mission statement. By actively promoting minority languages you lock more people into them which is not consistent with trying to empower them.
I do not share geni's views at all.
