Quick clarification. I am certainly not the most active editor on en wikisource. There are plenty of great people there with more edits than me, with special shoutouts to Pathoschild, BirgitteSB, Jude, Zhaladshar, Shanel, and many others to numerous to mention.

because my home wiki is intended to host only primary sources. English Wikipedia have your on mailing list and wikipedia-l is intended to be a mailing list for global issues on Wikipedia projects. The question of credibility is relevant to all Wikimedia projects, but attempts in talk about encyclopedia credibility is not relevant to all Wikimedia projects.

It's funny that you'd effectively accuse the person who is probably the #1 human contributor to enWiksource (Danny) of having project tunnel vision.

The fact of the matter is that the problems discussed in this thread are a real concern for all of our projects, including Wikisource.

Any solution which would help us keep imaginary islands out of Wikisource would also likely help us keep imaginary primary sources out of Wikisource.

Collectively we need to figure out how to work together better across the project and linguistic barriers that divide us. Simply putting our heads in the sand and pretending that the difficulties of openness are limited to enwiki is counterproductive. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
