Denny, and Wikimedians,
How to maintain the diversity of contributions, edits, individual knowledge generators / writers, et al, on the human side of Wikipedia, by many different language communities if these were to grow, I wonder? Is this already part of your proposal, which I haven't come across yet? Thank you for this great development!
Cheers, Scott

Elevator pitch:
Many Wikipedia language editions have large gaps in knowledge. We want to close these gaps by allowing to create and maintain content in one place and allow the Wikipedias to use this content if they choose so, instead of doing that in each of the Wikipedia language editions individually. This will allow more people to access and create more knowledge in more languages in the Wikipedias.
In order to do this, we need to represent the content in a way that can be translated to many different natural languages with high fidelity. We do this by introducing a new project that allows to create, maintain, catalogue and evaluate functions as a new form of knowledge the communities work on. This will allow completely new use cases, and allow more people to share in more forms of knowledge than today.

As some of you know, I have been working on the idea of a multilingual Wikipedia for a few years now.
What's the elevator pitch for this?
