But with smaller wikipedia, we should be very concerned since if we pay people to write content, we will be pointed out as trying to impose our opinions to sovereign countries : neo-colonialism is always a danger...

Maybe we should not be the ones paying for content.

Thanks Jimmy,

As I clarified in a later email, my problem is not in small Wikipedias like Bambara, where seed money can be necessary to get the project off the ground. In fact, I was one of the original people to propose this. Rather, my concern is with well established with Wikipedias, like English, German, French, Italian, or Japanese, where the money is being used to promote personal or corporate interests.
