Wikipedia has already become a dominant information source for the 1.5 How does being a dominant information source for people help the WMF achieve its goals? We need to focus on getting Wikipedia to the 5.2 billion people who can't Indeed. What languages do these 5.2 billion people speak? Are they connected to the Internet? If not, what's stopping them? Do they have a telephone, a computer, electricity, television, running water? If not, what is stopping them from being able to get these things? Are the problems things that are well geared toward the expertise of the WMF, or are we better off letting other non-profits with more specialized expertise fix them? Personally, I didn't even know the number was 5.2 billion. Should I do this further research myself, or can someone answer these questions for me?
