Well, besides from being a clean canvas that we can work from, it would boast some things that Meta currently does not: A.) It would be heavily based upon most of the policies from en.wikipedia. Some things can change, but it will be a site designed with the purpose of being an extention of en.wikipedia instead of an entirely separate project. Meta2 will exist for Wikipedia instead of being a standalone project. B.) Seeing that it is being built from the ground up, it will be several exponential degrees easier to keep things organized in a clear and concise manner. Read: categorization. C.) It would be much cleaner and accessible by regular Wikipedians. Meta as it stands right now frightens many people on en. I know... I've talked to them. D.) Old material three years from now would be in a category called "archive" or something akin. E.) It would have the potential expandability that Meta boasts, except in a more defined and controlable setting. As far as the essays are concerned, I was only using that as an example. I apologize if that caused any confusion. Angela, I really hope you don't think that we're trying to completely destroy Wikimedia. The very reason why we're sticking around is because we like this project. I've made some fabulous friends here, including yourself, Anthere, David, Jimbo, and so on and so forth. I know I have a tendency to create total havoc, but I do so in the attempt to improve, not destroy. We're only trying to push the envelope a little further. If you can give us the resources to do such, you will not be disappointed. --Alex
