I'd like to see Wikimedia as a community take
some 300-year stances on
knowledge dissemination,
Did you mean 300 years?
Yes. Considering the stakes and our capacity for history, this seems
to me appropriate and possible.
Personally on this scope, my personal burning priority would
be off-planet database backups. And I am not joking, one bit,
either.
Not because disaster fears, but more fears of political kinds.
I don't hold with the view that we can rest assured liberal
democratic systems are inherently stable under all conceivable
extra-political real world contexts.
