Right, but we do have this systemic bias already in place: in ALL our projects, the articles on localities in Sweden are longer and better written (and better illustrated) than the articles on localities in Burkina Faso. We could indeed initiate smth like an effort to improve articles on localities in Burkina Faso (which may be combined with the outreach effort in the global South or whatever keywords are currently used), but it is clear to me that the overlap between users participating in WLM and users capable of writing articles on Burkina Faso is close to zero if it at all exists.
Basically, we need to recruit more editors. The work on how to do usably reliable sourcing other than English-language printed works may help too.
