While I may not be involved in the Portuguese Wikipedia, I do have a masters degree in mathematics, so I can reliably inform you that "majority" is not the same as "all".
The WMF tends to employ smart people, so I assume that whoever wrote that bit of the plan knew that that wasn't the most accurate way of describing the activity. So, my question to you is: why did they describe it that way? Why say "Portuguese Wikipedia’s top contributors" when "a selection of Wikipedians in Brazil" would have been far more accurate?
You're making a mountain out of a mole hill here, Thomas. Perhaps the caveat "some of" should be added to "Portuguese Wikipedia's top contributors", but the current statement is more accurate than the one you proposed, given the state of Pt Wikipedia and who came to our meetups.
